So, who else has a lyric? I could add one. How about...

"Kum-ba-yah, my friend, Kum-ba.....

"Awww, come on, Lady, sing with me! You know the lyrics!"

Hahahaha! I missed this before. Nice one, Elf.

Poor old George Image
This is, of course, a photoshop job. The picture of George was taken at an event where Mark Wills presented the president with that groovy CARVIN guitar with the presidential seal on it.
Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?

There's nothing that Bush can do that will make Martin happy.

Two years later and the clean up continues

2005 -- US: Hurricane Katrina hits the south, destroying much of New Orleans, where upwards of 50,000, mostly poor African Americans, are unable to escape. At least 28 government agencies, from local Louisiana parishes to the Bush White House reported New Orleans levees were breached, the Bush administration in the know as early as 8:30 a.m. EST.

I saw a headline in the paper yesterday about tourists taking pictures where people died from Katrina's work. Talk about morbid.

They still have a good culture of music and art, it actually never went any place, matter of fact it is one big factor that helped the city most and there is even a bigger resurgence than before the storm going on now. I got a picture of a jazz man playing on the corner while I was there, I'll send it out to you.

Considering that since Katrina they've had a murder rate higher than any first world city, I don't know either.

From what I remember from a geography class I had in college they have had that honor for a while. At least more than once.
