So the Saints won.  Now I wonder when all the horns honking and fireworks are going to stop.  Looks like it will be an ear-plug night tonight. 

One of the things I love about New Orleans is how it seems that everyone and their mother plays a brass instrument.  The game had not been over for a minute before there were people out on the street playing the trumpet and second lineing.  We got a couple of renditions of Saints (When the Saints Go Marching In), one of Second Line, and then one of a WHO DAT? cheer, then the impromptu mini parade went back inside. 

When I called my mother earlier she said that the news in Philadelphia was reporting that New Orleans had already closed the schools for tomorrow.  That may be a little overboard.  Of course, if my company decided to cancel work tomorrow that would not be over board at all.  Not one little bit.

I just got into town that afternoon because our project was put on hold, but I had a party I was invited to.
