Hi Irish!! The last photo.. the title and the "Subtitle's" say a lot!! note the small statue of the man on horse back center screen... the Gentleman looking out the window.. The Statue... that's "Five Dollar ANDY!!!!" The $5.00 Question.. why is "Andy" in the center of the photo??? Think of his History!! In 1814 he took a little trip.... down the Mississip'!! Got to New Orleans (I think He wanted to go to MARDI GRAS!!!!) And he caught the Bloody British in"Chalmette!!" Had help from Jean Lafitte (Yule Brenner with a wig on!!)... The Brits came up Lake Borgne hell bent on going to MARDI GRAS!! NO WAY SAY ANDY!! Had the Brits taken New Orleans they would have had a strangle hold on all "UP RIVER COMMERCE" and if successful we would be paying our taxes to King George and his descendants!!! ANDY STANDS PROUD in Jackson Square in New Orleans having survived the last Purge of Statues!!! SO?? WHY IS ANDY THERE??? skybill
"10-4!!" ACE!!.. I Stand corrected!! It's "$20!!!!!!" As for the "Battle of New Orleans" Andy's statue still stands in Jackson Square in the French Quarter in New Orleans!! Had Andy, Jean and all the troops been taken by the Brit's .. there would probably be a statue of "King George" there!!! skybill

Not to piss in your Cheerios but, isn't Andrew Jackson on the $20? Or am I missing something?
