re: One of my favorite promises of Trump 2024 - bringing back World's Fairs

New Orleans has hosted two world's fairs, and both of them helped rescue the city, even though they both were financial flops.

It was a good festival when it was oriented around boating and the lake. Used to have boat races, and the lake was packed with boats, particularly along the sea wall. It was a lot of fun in those days.
After a fatal boat crash in the early 90s, law enforcement became gestapo on the lake, boardi...

I watched one episode of Louisiana Law, and got pissed.
Game Wardens boarded the fishing boat of a guy raking oysters. That's tough work, if you could imagine.
Well, the guy didn't have his burlap sacks of oysters covered by a tarp, which means they could be potentially contaminated by bird s...
