Wondering about Drince88

Even in the midst of worry, it's nice to have something to laugh at.

From MSNBC's The Big Uneasy: French Quarter eerily deserted

Roommates Michael Seward, 45, and Jesse Rowe, 28, went out Sunday to buy a battery-powered radio. They don’t have a car to get out of town, but they feel perfectly safe in their second-story apartment.

“The house we live in was built for Napoleon’s nephew,” Seward said. “It’s been here a while.”

Seward pointed out that the Quarter was on some of the highest land in the city, “on the upper lip of the bowl.”

Rowe said “hysterical” family and friends were calling to beg them to flee to Mississippi. Seward, who fled from Mississippi, quipped: “That’s a fate worse than death.”

I hear you, Michael and Jesse. I hear you.
