I walked along the sidewalk beyond the library to the Lawless Chapel on the Dillard University campus and paused when I saw a single white hearse. One hearse for 19 people. One hearse for what's left of those 19 people. Skulls. In some cases, parts of skulls. Beautifully-crafted boxes carrying their remains were inside a single coffin. The gloved hands of the Rhodes Funeral Home staff were careful as they moved them inside for a viewing. There was no open casket. No closed casket.

I've been to Canada. More than once. I wasn't there long whenever I went. Once I left Detroit to cross the border, see what I could see within a mile or less then return. I just wanted to step into another neighborly nation to add to my short list of nations I've visited. I've never been to Ottawa, Canada. New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell has. The mayor has been to plenty of places I haven't been. So have Mayors Ray Nagin, Marc Morial, Sidney Barthelemy, Moon Landrieu and Mitch Landrieu.

Share I am not that Willie Sutton . Even though I (sort of) share a name with the infamous bank robber, I've never been arrested. I visited jails and prisons. By choice. I've never spent a night in one. So I had no opportunity to escape. And I'm not sure I would've been any good at devising and carrying out an escape plan. I've gotten my share of parking and speeding tickets. I've been stopped for traffic violations.
