Background Check


In order to better understand some of the situations, you need a little background information.  I grew up in New Orleans, went to Arizona State then did an internship at Walt Disney World’s College Program.  These three places are known to many as Laissez les bon temps rouler (Let the good times roll!) and I’m not scared to let them roll.  When I moved to Jackson, MS (otherwise known as the Bible belt) from Orlando, I was in for a rude awakening.  And for good measure let’s just throw in the mix that I’m Episcopal.  There’s nothing a Baptist likes better than saving an Episcopalian and one from the city of sin (New Orleans, not Vegas); I damn near guarantee them a direct flight to heaven.  When I make comments about Baptists in my stories it’s not to be mean; I’m just not ashamed to talk to you in the liquor store.
