If you are staying at Deming Pavillion, the security guard has a phone book with the number for Domino's. If you are coming from the airport to Deming, here's the number for the airport shuttle($13 one way instead of $30 for a cab) 504-522-3500.

What are your general comments?

It was absolutely FABULOUS! I was a bit skeptical about going down to NOLA post Katrina, not really knowing what to expect or how I would respond, but the attitudes of Dr. Beckman and Father/Dr. Don were INCREDIBLE. I love those two! The lunch was the best I have had yet on an interview and you are done at 12:15.
