Yikes! No crevisse? Sacre bleu!

So I'm peering through today's Picayune, when I happen upon an article lamenting the state of the crawfish crop in Louisiana. The two storms combined to destroy eighty percent of the supply. Yes, 80%! They're predicting wholesale prices of $3 a pound for live (translation to about $4 a pound for you and I), and $30 a pound for processed. $30 a pound?!? Great crimson crustaceans, that's entirely off the scale.

That all translates to this: no crawfish boils this spring. Not to mention the Crawfish Monica at Jazzfest probably being made with Chinese tails.

I'm crushed.

Trying to balance left brain with right today

Since I'm up to the arse in data-mappings, drive permissions, and link parameters, I'm countering the high machine logic with just useless web browsing.

Although, perhaps [livejournal.com profile] oh_really_now would consider this useful.
