Not So • "While the rest of us Americans scurry about with a Blackberry in one hand and a to-go cup of coffee in the other in a feverish attempt to pack more achievement into every minute, it's the New Orleans way to build one's days around friends, family, music, cooking, processions, and art. For more than two centuries New Orleanians have been guardians of tradition and masters of living in the moment - a lost art. Their preference for having more time than money was at the heart of what made that city so much fun to visit and so hard to leave."
