A Lady's Ruminations

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

I repeat, What about these???

Now New Orleans' mayor, Ray Nagin, is demanding something he had plenty of, but didn't use.

"I need 500 buses," New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin said in a television interview Friday morning. "Get every doggone Greyhound bus line in the country and get that [expletive] moving to New Orleans ... This is a major, major, major deal. I can't emphasize that enough."
Mr. Mayor, what about these now flooded school buses?

What about these 364 New Orleans Regional Transportation Authority Buses?

What about these, Mr. Nagin?
