Gustav

In the words of governor Bobby Jindal "the storm is strenthening"...I left out the g because that's how they say strengthening out here. Anyway, it looks like we are in for one serious storm here on the bayou in the next few days. Right now the radar is showing that tropical storm Gustav is headed right for New Orleans and surrounding parishes (meaning us). The storm is supposed to hit the U.S on Tuesday, and it is projected to be a category three hurricane. Also, today marks the three year anniversary of hurricane Katrina, so irony is most definitely in the air. It was also around this time three years ago that the former Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco was urging citizens to "make peanut butter sandwiches and pray". Ummmm, ya....are we going on a picnic or something??? But have no fear, we are in good hands under the leadership of our current governor Mr. Bobby J. Forces have been called in, game plans are in order and the Hansen's are prepared to bust on out if an evacuation is announced.
