I wouldn't know. I lived in Va. Beach until I was about 10.
When I moved to Texas, I had never seen a Mexican. I'd seen alot of Filipinos and blacks, but never a Hispanic.

Lame thread. Take it to the Club and keep the Katrina/Mexican smack out of it.
Thanks.
Lol. I was joking. He's being a supertroll. But his threads have been funny and yet pointless![]()
I'm afraid to go back for this reason. I've always loved New Orleans, and had considered moving there many times, but a Disneyland version would just break my heart.
Hmmm. By Disneyland, would you mean the loss of its unique architecture? Or a more "touristy" feel? I assure you, Bourbon St. is as sleazy as ever. And, apart from a spot or two in the French Market and Decatur St., the town doesn't feel any more touristy than before the storm. And the old neighborhoods that had the great houses were the ones that didn't flood much, if at all.
But...but...but...does New Orleans have Whataburger????

More "touristy" feel, or... perhaps a loss of authenticity.
you ever heard of Norfolk Christian? (the school I attend)

That's been a concern with some of the modular homes that have gone up in Lakeview and Gentilly. They have replaced much older houses. I guess they have a point, but most of the new homes here are very nice, and many have the New Orleans "look."
But, no, I haven't detected any more of a "touristy" feel since the storm, at least not in the areas where visitors go. It's a lot less touristy than the Riverwalk, I assure you.
No ... is it a junior high?
I go here ...

Um, no. Haven't met many of those types.
Most of the tourists like to walk around and see the sights. Or they stay in the clubs. Haven't you see the Women Gone Crazy videos?
Sadly, this is a lot of what I've seen on my travels there. And this is exactly the at ude that makes me worry about a Disneyland-ed New Orleans. It's a truly amazing city, but people act like assholes there.
Second trip I took was when I tagged along with my dad during a convention. There were a lot of people I met who wouldn't dare go into to the quarter and limited their restaurant excursions to Burger King, Emeril's restaurant, and Margaritaville. Stewpid.
The real jerks here are the locals. Particularly from the projects and other poor neighborhoods. Alot of resentment there directed toward people in general.
And the people who were afraid of the Quarter needed a better tour guide. The Quarter is totally safe, especially during the day. Tourists, though, have no business going north of Basin St. Just stay in the Quarter, the CBD, or the Warehouse District and you'll have a great time.

But doubtless he has them rolling in the aisles in swamp country.
You've made nine posts.
Eight of them have been this exact image.
Projecting much?
San Antonio is hot, flat, and dusty.
New Orleans is hot, concave, and dirty.
@ tlong
So, if you don't give a crap about food, voodoo, 'gators, jazz, and getting drunk or praying on those that do ... what's good about New Orleans that would make it better than San Antonio?
Actually, New Orleans is about as flat a city as you'll find. The lower Mississippi is some of the flattest land anywhere on earth.
San Antonio has some hills to the north and west.
Mi Tierra???
Are you serious???
That place sucks ass. There's nothing Mexican about their "Mexican Food".
Trust me, they DO NOT represent Mexican food.
San Antonio is not flat.
If you really believe that, then you must have trouble telling the difference between a penis and a vagina.
I used to take San Antonio's hills for granted.
But when I moved to New Orleans, it took awhile to get used to it. This place is flatter than western Oklahoma (it has hills), north Louisiana (a few high spots), and even the stereotypically flat Kansas. When it floods here, there is nowhere for the water to collect.
The only hills we have here are the natural levees and a couple of places in City Park.
