Bud Boudreaux Quotations

After Frances, everybody around here was seasoned veterans. If a third hurricane had hit us, we would have restored power within three days. And after a fourth one, we would have snapped fingers and the lights would come on.

This building has a steel roof, and Frances rattled it for 30 hours. You could hardly hear a thing. Imagine someone beating on pots and pans incessantly. It was nerve-wracking.

I lived in this building for 21 days. The conference room was my bedroom.

You can't talk about Jeanne without talking about Frances. The first one was pretty scary. We'd had threats from Hurricane Floyd and Irene, but none of us had ever been through the big one.
