Pardi Gras

Venturing down to New Orleans for Mardi Gras weekend was definitely one of the crazier times in my life. Slurping on highly alcoholic drinks and watching the crowd of wasted, diverse people on Bourbon Street has now gained a spot as one of my favorite past times. However, I couldn't help notice while sipping on my "Hurricane Katrina" drink, that this title is an extremely sensitive topic in the city I was in.
....is it weird to say "too soon"? Perhaps I am being too touchy on the topic, but am I mistaken or did thousands of people not lose their homes and life due to this storm? The name of this drink along puts me on edge for the amount of havoc that it caused, and I noticed it from a state away. Maybe the Orlean-ies make it a joke? This does not sound right...


Wouldn't it be extremely odd for Greenville bar to have a drink called "Kennedy Assassination"? I don't find that light. Whatever, I drank it anyways. Blackout, bye.
