The Strange Encounter

It was a beautiful day in New Orleans, as Chili Fontenot browsed through some of the French Quarter’s nifty shops.  It was the week before Mardi-Gras, as tourist began to fill the city’s finest hotels, inns and lodges for some good old southern hospitality.  Everyone knows that there is something special about New Orleans, not only is it known for Mardi-Gras but for the exquisite Creole cuisine and Gypsy jazz music magically fills the air, as the exciting nightlife never ends. The nightclubs, bars and restaurants all along Bourbon Street splendidly becomes its best under the glow of the French Quarter street lamps.  There is the magnificent Harrah Casino, jazz parades, horseracing, fine art galleries and museums, trolley rides, tours along the alligator bayou or a ride on the Natchez Riverboat; if you’re eccentrically daring, you can witness voodoo rituals or very haunted plantations, cemeteries and houses with mysterious history.  The great amusement of city is infinite, as the celebration is the core of the New Orleans experience where there is something for everyone to enjoy.

“Now this one is one of my best sellers.  I've sold several today!  It’s got a 4.5 pure motion HD touch screen, an amazing 8-megapixel camera with image stabilization.  It’s easy to explore and navigate and it’s so thin and light, it fits in the tightest pockets and it comes with it's own cell phone number attached to the back of the phone!”  She explained.

 “Yes, it is very light and I like this color too!”  Chili confirmed observing the phone’s unique color.

 “Oh yes!  It is a beautiful color isn’t it?  It’s called a fluorescent outrageous green.  It’s an original; there is no other phone like it.  That’s why it’s one of
