New Slogan - Ich Bein Ein New Orleanean!
Is that what you call someone who lives in New Orleans?

1. It's not a pastry, is it?
Just thought we should check first.

2. I understand the sentiment, but German is TOTALLY inappropriate!
For New Orleans only Francais will do: Je suis une Nouveau Orleansienne! French is gender specific, so for guys it would be: Je suis un Nouveau Orleansien!

3. Great - "Je suis une Nouvelle Orleannaise"
(people who live in Orleans are called Orleannais).

6. Ah, merci! I couldn't figure out how to translate that part, so I punted.
I didn't know this: "people who live in Orleans are called Orleannais" -- that helps alot!

Je suis une Nouvelle Orleannaise!

A bientot!

It makes no sense in this context.

7. Personally, I think Arden'ts "We are all Niggers now"...
is the slogan I will adopt but I like the way you are using a wonderful historical quote.
