Why not send your kids to a summer camp closer to home? A quick visit to the YMCA website shows two that appear closer than the Manship location, including one on the way.

Strange that you missed that.Hmmm.

There seem to be quite a few religious groups benefiting from these funds. Is it legal to give state money directly to a groups with "Baptist","Christian",etc in the name? Is there any oversight as to what the groups do with the money once they get it, or do we have to wait a few years for the Business Report to expose it?

JR,

Please ask your readers that rush to the defense of New Orleans if they actually live in New Orleans. I've got friends and family that I say are from the Big Easy, but in fact they all live in Jefferson,St. Tammany, and St. Bernard Parish. Don't act you are from the Irish Channel when your address is Mandeville.With that little trip across the Lake, you might as well live in Gonzales.

Stealing the economy of New Orleans? Unless we haul the French Quarter up to Baton Rouge, there isn't much left to steal. New Orleans lost it's title as the premier city of the south. I don't know why, ask Atlanta, Dallas, or Houston,they might know.

Rumors? Here's a good one, Ray Nagin sayng we need 10,000 body bags. Or how about the explosions where the levee was blown with dynamite. Rumors are just that,rumors. Please excuse Baton Rouge for being a little jumpy when it was beseiged by a rather large influx of out of towners(even more than an LSU game)

Let's just leave it at this. New Orleans goes it's way, Baton Rouge will go it's way. When the next store comes, we all know which way the interstate goes.
