	HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! No offend but do you know what the name
Louisiana reminds me of? Remeber Live And Let Die? Remember that
big Louisiana highway patrol sheriff? He's such a fu*king funny
guy, man. And why do you think they chose Louisiana to shoot
the speed boat chasing scene? Because they're saying Louisiana
IS a big swamp! A wedding can be held where there is water
within 100ft on four sides! I still remember that big sheriff
goes "my brother got the fastest boat in all Louisiana!"
Man, does it really mean in Louisiana a fast boat is more
valuable and practical that a Porsche?
	No offends, ya know, just joking. Can't help it!
I don't even think Venus is a swamp. Ya know?8-)
