        Our parish library's catalog is online but of course will only
        tell me about books that are in the library.  It's not exactly
        a large library.  I will have to check out the Internet, but I
        don't get that opportunity very often.

        Bush is between Covington and Bogalusa (I'm very close to
        Covington).  We're on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain
        (north of New Orleans).  I'm originally from Metairie, which
        is a suburb of New Orleans.  Been to New Orleans?  :)
