Happy Mardi Gras!

Time to eat up today, especially Paczki!

However, just watching the news last night and today of the reverlers in New Orleans, a part of me still feels sad and upset with the current state of New Orleans.

Six months later, homes are still abandoned, people are still displaced, pets are still abandoned, and there's still a lack of cohesive plan for the future of New Orleans.

Individuals are still living in trailers, with no way to support themselves. As one BBC reporter stated last night, it still looks like a hurricane went through New Orleans last night.

When will the cleanup begin? Why is there no plan? Why are we (STILL) treating our citizens this way in America?
