Sometimes it's this easy

All I have to do is:

1) Write something like.. Want to know what's going on in New Orleans? (but, you know, in a cute and amusing manner)

2) Link to one of today's headlines like this

Killing rate surges since Katrina
Numbers outpace rise of N.O. population

3) Express some sort of indignation (but in an endearing and clever manner) and then ask.. What is your leadership doing to mitigate these circumstances?

4) And then link to these two posts from David.

5) Snicker

6) Repeat the process but with this headline.

Public housing sits empty and waiting
Former tenants delay return for varied reasons

7) Add a quick aside.. something like, "Remember how emptying public housing was supposed to reduce crime? What happened there?"

8) Say something nice about David's blog.

9)Done. It's just that easy!
