Crowley, La.

A small Cajun town founded 1886, parish seat of Acadia Parish in Acadiana, Southwest Louisiana. Population is estimated at 13,265.

Known for the International Rice Festival. At one time it was a major center for rice harvesting and milling.
Crowley still has a number of rice mills and rice is the main crop of many local farmers.

In addition, in recent years, crawfish farming has become increasingly popular.

Also known as "Rice Capital of America" or "Crowley, America".

La Wino

Amy Winehouse, as coined in Brit tabloids. A truly talented singer, she has become a darling of the yellow journals, due to her anorexic appearance and heavy drinking/ drugging/ brawling. She overdosed and was seen bloody and with her husband all scratched up. Got her a ton of publicity. She won a BRIT award, a MOBO and is due return to the studio to start work on a new album set for release in 2008 which is exciting. If she doesn't die first from her eating disorder etc. The British newspaper The Sun has been running a HILARIOUS Amy Winehouse column called Wino Watch.
I sure hope La Wino lives long enough to make many more albums!
