ï¿1/2Just as all Yï¿1/2at Orleanians know dat a true miracle is a Catlick family wid less than five kids, and da priestï¿1/2s benediction is da starting block for da mad dash to da parking lot, now deyï¿1/2ll know dat if dereï¿1/2s ever an archbishop of Yï¿1/2ats, itï¿1/2ll be Earl Higginsï¿1/2excuse me, Oil Higgins.ï¿1/2
--Angus Lind, New Orleans Times-Picayune
ï¿1/2Where yï¿1/2at?ï¿1/2 is a universal greeting for New Orleanians; it is shorthand for ï¿1/2How are you?ï¿1/2 So much of New Orleansï¿1/2 culture is shorthand, a fusion of the cityï¿1/2s rich immigrant culture that defines the community by its music, food, and traditions. From the cityï¿1/2s inception, the Catholic faith has influenced this evolution, with education and devotion being the cornerstones.
Modern secular life--the way New Orleanians celebrate the joys and sorrows of living--also has its roots in Catholicism. From street and civil parish names to Mardi Gras, from the high school a New Orleanian attended to what he eats on Fridays, the joie de vivre spirit of faith shines through. Higgins, a proud Yï¿1/2at Catholic, humorously shares the quirky shorthand of this aspect of New Orleans life.
