New Orleans! Crummy, lousy, rancid and rank... New Orleans!

Army guy: [grabbing Grampa's hand] Sir, for your own safety, we DO advise you to evacuate. Grampa: [stubborn] I ain't leavin'! I was born in this nursing home, and I'll DIE in this nursing home! Army guy: Is there any chance of you changing your mind? Grampa: Sure. Let's go. [gets up and leaves]
