With Shark Week continuing, people just love to learn more about those animals that made you avoid the water for years after 'Jaws' hit the big screen. This nationwide obsession has gotten into the digital realm with photoshopping shark mouths on famous people (nice one Huffington Post),
If the economy is suffering, it's hard to tell here in Lafayette. There's plenty of new construction going on, but not many signs, which begs the question, 'What's going up here?'.
