Wasn't that cool when the Horseshoe boat was brought in to see that bridge swing open? I am sure we'll all probably never see that again!

Latenight, is that the sunshine bridge that you are talking about? its goes over the mississippi into napoleanville, straight up then straight down, its called the sunshine because at noon if you look at the top of the bridge that is all that you can see!

Only if by "nicely" you mean "incredibly slowly."

I don't get your point. Proper grammar is difficult to follow?

It is not proper English to have two adjacent word ending in "ly" such as "incredibly slowly"... Didn't you know that? It should be either "incredibly slow" or "incredible slowly".. :duck:
