Finding humor in the midst of muddy disaster: the Creole Tomato

At The Creole Tomato the legend is "If you ain't from here, you won't get it," but much of the satire is broad enough to give anyone a belly laugh. My favorite story is "N.O. Public School Board Reports No Drop in Attendance."

Todd Price, author of A Frolic of My Own and restaurant critic for Gambit Weekly (he and his wife evacuated to Dallas) calls the Creole Tomato a "Yat version of the Onion."
Price's blog continues to provide thoughtful coverage and photos of the Crescent City - see coverage of Voodoo Fest by following his photo link - though he's in exile.
