Kentwood, Lousiana

Just passed through Britney Spears hometown and only 80 miles to New Orleans! Now that Gogo has taken the wheel, I can post some musing about things we learned today on the road:

- One Vanilla Creme Rolaids provides much needed relief from A&R BBQ-induced heartburn. Two will make you nauseous, especially on long car-rides.

- The awesome "new" song Gogo heard a couple of weeks ago is actually Bill Joel's You May Be Right...from 1980.

- Elvis is actually Elvis Presley's real name. Learning that only cost me $32 and 2.5 hours at Graceland (Liz)

- All "get-on-the-road" times are plus or minus 3 hours on this trip. We got going a little late today...again.

More to come on this list. My laptop battery is dying, and the Big Easy beckons...

Everyone at Google will be *shocked* to hear that Liz's laptop battery was dying. Again. Have fun!

I actually tried to find that song for the "Traditional" CD Mix I gave you guys. Completely forgot the name of the song at the time, unfortunately.

What's really fun about the Billy Joel song are the actual lyrics - which may give some hints as to why Gohar likes it so much. "You may be right, I may be crazy, but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for."

:) Enjoy the New Orleans coffee. Yum!
