New Orleans does thunderstorms better than any other city in the world (maybe Southeast Asia has some good ones with those monsoons) but right now as it rains cats and dogs outside my window and lightning lights up the sky and thunder rocks our foundation, I think to myself – now that’s a rain storm.

\nand they cry out as they hit

\nthe body lying underneath
\nwithout an umbrella.<\/p>\n
\nand I would do better to make
\nsome soup and light up the cave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
