It's Mardi Gras, and Fat Tuesday is
rolling along in the streets of New
Orleans.

Local officials see Mardi Gras as the
key to helping improve New Orleans'
image following Hurricane Katrina.

And from the looks of the crowd, it
appears to be working.

Before Hurricane Katrina, close to a
million tourists made the trip to the

This year, the estimate is close to
700- thousand, and officials report a
90- percent occupancy at New Orleans-

Creative is what Geoff Krantz
does.

He's tapped with the
responsibility of researching and
writing Amazement Square's "The Amazing
Adventures of Scorpy Bug."

The daily comic strip is based on
the Virginia Standards of Learning.

Geoff lays out the story and his
words are then edited, or basically
trimmed down, by Shawne Farmer.

Shawne and Geoff are former
teachers and both understand the
responsibility of putting together a
lesson plan, or in this case, a comic
written to complement a lesson plan.

And as former teachers, the two
know what content is less exciting to
learn that children tune out or need
more instruction in.
