The wetlands are more what you think of when you envision Louisiana: a hot, fetid network of dark, ancient swamps and bayous, brimming with strange and dangerous fauna. In some places, the water is shallow, more a flooded forest or field than a true wetland. In other areas, the water is deep and murky, with untold dangers lurking in the depths. This habitat, and the surrounding area, is ideal for exotics used to a humid climate, as well as water-loving animals like mink and nutria. Just watch out for alligators.

My husband asked me to go to the post office to mail his resume in anticipation of a job interview. He instructed me to send it the fastest way possible.
Struck by the urgency in his voice, I grabbed a handful of change and dashed out the door. Arriving at the post office, I rushed to the counter and breathlessly explained to the clerk that my envelope had to be delivered immediately . He casually weighed the envelope and said it would cost $ 10.03.I fumbled through my pockets and tallied up my coins. "But I don't have $ 10. 03, " I said. He punched some more buttons and said, "Okay, that will be $ 7. 40, ma am.
Once more I said in dismay, "Sorry, I don't have $ 7.40.
"Well," he sighed, "exactly how much do you have?"
I meekly answered, "I have exactly $ 2. 15, sir."
With that, he yelled over his shoulder to a coworker, "Hey, Charlie, get the pigeon ready.
