Sometimes the world isn't as boring as it first appears...

A tree down and traffic lights twisted around. About the worst I've
seen here so far. Looks like BR is fine, so no worries.

Baton Rouge is fine. Some traffic lights are out and there are some
limbs and stuff on the ground, but that's about it.

Heard from a friend in BR who said she thinks I12 is in bad shape... but
who needs interstates when you got the Natchez Trace Parkway? Scenic
route all the way baby!

I'm not a programmer, but what do animals have to do with code?
However, I do appreciate the monkey hiding his eyes for VB. :) Notice
that the book for learning Python does not feature a snake as one might
expect, but rather a bunny. But I guess pythons eat bunnies? The only
one that makes sense is the book on Tomcat, which features a cat. But I
guess programmers aren't to blame for this problem, as i'm sure they did
not design the covers. Instead, some fancy pants editor probably got
drunk one night and thought up a great marketing idea - some kind of man
vs nature theme perhaps? Animals in the wild versus HAL. Or maybe it
was just some stoner who recently visited the zoo and decided to pull a
fast one on the publishing company. Nonetheless, i'm sure the books are
full of good info, and they're all available at your local bookstore.
Enjoy!
