Attempts by Minnesotans to flood New Orleans this past week, in hopes of a change of venue for the NFC Championship Game, were thwarted, thanks to Colonel Culpepper Romaine, of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, whose responsibility to adjust flows through the Old River Control Structure at the Morganza Spillway, some 60 river miles [...]
Mistake from yesterday. The BluzCruz is on April 17, a Saturday, and the Ochsner’s Ironman is the following day, Sunday the 18th. All for now-KB

If this weather holds and we get a warm day toward next weekend we may attempt a second attempt on the Giles Circumnavigation, provided it doesn’t conflict with the BCS or anyone’s cooking classes.
