Good Morning, we are all so glad there is progress in the BP, spill, they have much to do, and a lot of issue's to sort out.We don't want this sort of thing to happen again.

Cleanup work begins to tail off along La, Coast.

 The biggest question  is where's the oil. the Fisheries are still closed, there still oil on the beaches, marshes, bottom of the gulf of Mexico, there is so much oil that it really can't have just evaporated like some suggest, and what about all the damage to the rest of us?

Big Mamou Enterprises's Thursday, July 29, 2010. Edition

Good day to you all.

The headlines today have some really sad things, and it's "Deadly domestic." These case's are always sad, and have many different sides to these stories, our heart goes out to all concerned.

Now for the news we have all been waiting for, Arizona law put on hold.  These laws should not be on hold, and the High court is a factor in the debate of immigration. People should be able to come here, legally

The other's, the Illegal's are the problem, as far as I am concerned, they are invading our country,an invasion.So seal our borders, deal with the illegal problems here, don't just let them roam around from state to state.

We are calling on our government to get this done, and act on it now.

Crews prep for kill, Temporary cap holds as steps toward static kill are taken, and the push is on to get BP to fork over $5 billion up front for restoration efforts.

The people that live in the fall are glad to hear, It's officially OK to start getting excited about football season.

"Cowboys 2nd in SLC survey.

Well the time of football are soon to be here, and it's always and exciting time. Go Pokes!!!

 

 As always.

July 28, 2010. Wednesday. What going on in Cajun Country, Headlines.

Well to start the great news is that there are no academically unacceptable schools in Calcasieu Parish." School makes grade, Reynaud Middle no longer academically unacceptable. Great news.

News that's not so great, Confidence falls even as corporate profits rise. well lets all keep our heads up and things are moving forward, despite it all.

Then our friends at BP hope to turn page with new CEO. Mr. Robert Dudley.  Good Luck Mr. Dudley.

The Head Headlines, "Councilman: "Streamline the process"

Jackson suggests removing Roach, DDA from lakefront development duties

well here we go!

We will continue to follow these as well as the many other things we must consider and move forward.

As always.

Tuesday, JULY 27 TH, 2010. lOCAL HEADLINES.

It's Tuesday, and things are heating up, and the action on the streets of our fair country, are heating up as well.

The days headlines, Minority report. "Makeup of port board could be in violation of law." Rep, A.B. Franklin says"I've been very supportive of the port board.But I think what the port did tonight was wrong and against the law. I think the board is operating illegally without a minority on the board."

The next headline, Steele: Racial slurs not tolerated. Council shares words about words that hurt.Deridder.

There are many words that hurt, in this day and time, it's not just the N, word. it's all words that are meant to hurt.

Cleanup brings culture clashes, Grand Isle. Quote."The outsiders walk in small groups along Route 1 at workday's end and sometimes cut across lawns and under elevated houses to reach bars like Daddy's Money, where women wrestle in oil. Some wear low-slung jeans, which prompted this warning note on one convenience store door. "No pants on the ground allowed."

They soon be gone.!!!

Well we try each day to sort out our little bit. so do the best you can.

As always...

CAZAN !!!

Head lines today, July 26th,2010. " Mission accomplished " ?

Quote. "When the U.S. ends its combat mission in Iraq five weeks from now".

That's an amazing statement. I would like to see us out of a lot of places, and our service's doing what they are designed to do.

The End is near, has always been a catch phrase, and it's still so today. Let's all pray that it will work out as it should. Give the country back to the people, and let them work it out, and let them have their say.

Quote. "Official: Hayward ousted". Decision to replace top BP executive made last week. too little too late!

Front page news, Search and rescue training focus of helicopter center. " Era helicopters, along with sister company Priority 1 Air Rescue, has opened a search and rescue training center in Lake Charles.

The best for last..

Chavez beats war drum, warns of oil cutoff. "We wouldn't send another drop of oil to its refineries, not a single drop more " !

This speaks for itself.

As Always.

CAZAN  !!!

Big Mamou Enterprises's Sunday, July 25 th, 2010

Good Day to all.

It's a great day the storm broke up and just some rain and some wind, a typical summer day in the gulf of Mexico.

Things are trying to get to normal. I believe they are normal. there are always new things to deal with, we still have a government that wants to fundamentally transform America, so lets deal with this, day by day and get the job done, be a watcher, and a listener.

Cajun country is getting ready to go back to school, and looking forward to fall.

The hunters are talking and Hobby lobby has their christmas items out for sale already, so consumers have a chance to buy a little extra this christmas.

Jobs are a big issue, and we need some, here in Cajun Country.

we'll be adding a forum for these subjects, and more. to come.

We are here for you , and hope you are well.

We will write soon.

As Always.

Weather or Not, Headline in Paper, July 24, 2010.

Weather or not, I love the way everyone is trying to look out for me, get ready, plan ahead, stock up make preparation's to evacuate and know where to go, and be sure to let everyone know, when , where, and how your going, leave contact numbers, and if you stay be sure to take a magic marker, and on your extremities, write your social security number, so they can identify your remains, well i don't care if they Identify my remains or not.

Give it a break, What did I do when the government and every public hero, has to tell me what to do.

I know how to take care of my self, and watch out for my interest, and property.

Enough with the control. I didn't need your assistance the last so many times, I don't need it now,. and won't need it in the future.I pay my way, and I fend for myself, the government doesn't need to replace one thing in my life. the things I have payed into as all working americans have done are due me, other than that, stop, I don't like the way you want to take care of me, It's like that old saying, if your are not making milk you're making meat. I am still providing my share to the nation, and will till the end, I plan on retiring the day before they bury me. So keep your controlling, and overbearing, and always intruding on my freedom, out of this,

It's not even a storm.

As always,

CAZAN !!!

It will be a challenging project, and  the state officials continue to investigate environmental issues as they look to replace the interstate 10 Calcasieu River bridge, in may cost as much as$400 million.

The bridge is constantly monitored and is safe and sound. so on to more of the front page.
