 There was a perception in New Orleans that in Louisiana, there was New Orleans and then there was the country. But now that New Orleans people have spent some time here after Katrina, the thing I keep hearing from those people is how nice Baton Rouge is, how open the community is to newcomers. And I think that is why people are staying.

 People are now beginning to voice what we've all been seeing with our own eyes -- the majority of people left in New Orleans are black, they are poor, they are the underbelly of society. When you look at this, what does this say about where we are as a country and where our government is in terms of how it views the people of this country? ... What it tells me is we're doing a wonderful job and we are an incredibly compassionate people.

 We have been here since Thursday at 5 a.m. and plan to stay through midnight Saturday and maybe Sunday depending how busy it is. The people of New Orleans have nothing. You and I have everything compared to those people down there.

 I live way out in the country, so there's not a lot of people around to remind me. And my friends don't think of me as 'Kim Novak' anymore anyway. It's like they forgot, too. And so it's nice.

 I clean forgot Barrie's ghost might be reading the computer screen over my shoulder -- forgot to worry whether the necessary people (hospital trustees) would like what I wrote.

 I think it was a good mix (of fans). I saw a lot of New Orleans fans up there and people that came over from the state of Louisiana and Mississippi. I thought the reception was outstanding. I forgot about the kickoff when all the flashes went off. I thought we were at the Super Bowl.

 There will definitely be people going to help (from across the country). Unfortunately, I don't think many of our members will be able to because they're so busy.

 I advised him that the president needs to make clear to the American people, in a way that he did to us today, his contrition, his sorrow for his actions, and he needs to do that not just once, he needs to understand that this is a process that is ongoing, that this issue will be raised time and again throughout the weeks, perhaps even months, ... He needs to address it on a continual basis with the kind of concern that he expressed to us today but he also needs to get to the issues that he was elected to address in this country.

 We want to do our part to help the city of New Orleans shine while the world is watching. We hope that travelers from around the country will show their support for New Orleans by joining in this historic celebration.

I mean, can you imagine American cooking without New Orleans?
