Brad, Angie say they'll take Ray:
New Orleanians breathed a collective sigh of relief last week, as celebrity super-couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie confirmed they are in late-stage negotiations to adopt New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin.
The couple had been frustrated in their recent attempts to adopt a Vietnamese child, due to international legal restrictions preventing unmarried parents from adopting. No such restriction applies to Nagin, according to Ann S. Williamson, Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Social Services.
"Married, unmarried, gay, straight, space aliens, hell. They can have him," Williamson said at a joint news conference with Jolie, Pitt, and a scowling, towel-swaddled Nagin.
Although it is hoped that simply removing Nagin - or "Baby Ray," as Jolie has nicknamed him - from City Hall and remanding him to a nursery in the couple's renovated French Quarter mansion will dramatically accelerate the city's recovery, residents have not given up hope that the couple will also adopt District Attorney Eddie Jordan and New Orleans Police Superintendent Warren Riley.
"Well, you know, those two do tend to fight a lot, and they're sneaky," Jolie said. "Let's see if we can get this one to play nice first."
Gov. Kathleen Blanco announced that citizens can apply for adoption by Pitt and Jolie through the governor's new "Road to Someone Else's Home Plan." Delays began immediately, and the program is expected to make its first awards no later than 2013."
Maybe this is the solution to our Charorge problem. If we can't get them a job, maybe we can get them adopted!!!!!

I wonder if they're interested in another RAY?
Dude, you good, you. I missed dat.
YES DUDE, and this RAY comes complete with;infantile behavior,temper tantrums,lots of crap in his diapers,a big chamber pot on his head and a big ORANGE pacifier up his.................
From 3 sources that attended CHARORGE FEST.2007 or should we say the Lafourche bi-centennial celebration...anywhere from 1,500 to 2,000 in attendence from the predicition of 25,000 to 30,000! It fell short....but you should have seen the people in Terrebonne parish at the Southdown Plantation Craft Show...10,000 to 15,000,but they plan this in advance...not in 3 months and hope.
