Immorality such as this should be illegal.

( NOLA and Grrr... )

Oh, and i just got my eviction notice.
I have two days.
I have lived here for nearly five years, without any complaints.
The letter was mailed Sept. 16th. You know, when nobody was allowed in the city, because it was all underwater, and toxic and everything.
Tomorrow, I talk to my lawyer, and the rental management people.
Immorality such […]

“Photos”

( NOLA )

I just snapped some photos with my webcam, I wanted to share them with you.

Jerry is my upstairs neighbor. Coincidentally, when I was a kid, my father, sister, and I would go to get beignets first thing every Sunday morning.
Jerry was our waiter. Every Sunday for years, he knew what we wanted.
As of late, Jerry […]

Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity-jig

( NOLA and Drunkery )

I got home roughly twelve hours ago.
For the most part, I’ve been out seeing friends, having drinks, and doing both at the same time.
Hot damn, it’s good to be home.
And for my next trick … work in the morning!

A New Hope

( NOLA )

I have always asked newcomers to New Orleans why they had chosen that city to start anew.
Answers always varied. Sometimes it was school or job relocation.
I think above all, most sought adventure, however unwilling they were to admit it.
They had seen photos, heard stories recounted, and read blogs.
Having been a lifelong resident, I loved to […]

of Gods and Governments

( Gen Zod and Amusing )

or, Why I Love the Texas Department of Transportation.
I bought my car ( Gen. Zod™ ) 1 month ago, today ( 09.06.05 ).
The seller, also named Will, had to get a copy of his title that same day.
For some reason, we marked the date of sale on the printed receipt and the title as 08.06.05. […]

click the drop-down and select ’shut-down’, asshole.

( Grrr... and Work and Linux/OSX )

okay, it’s just been a fucked day, so i am foregoing my quest for better capitalization.
1) macromedia - fix your fucking dreamweaver. you are now at rev 8, and why is it that i still can’t run the app if my disk is formatted UFS (Unix File System) on OSX?
get off your fucking asses and […]

Conglomeration of cool.

( NOLA and Amusing and Geekery )

The New New Orleans Initiative - Public Advocacy for the Appropriate Reconstruction of New Orleans.
Harvey Danger’s new album, Little by Little, is available for free from their site via zip (160kbs) file or bittorrent (higher VBR).
Kudos for making a statement. I, however, don’t think I’m cool/hip enough to listen to it though.
Made up Simpsons […]

The kite-strip pops…

( NOLA )

Here I sit, in my apartment in NOLA.
No, this isn’t a delayed post.
I was drinking at Molly’s earlier, and I have electricity, running water (clean enough to flush), cable tv, and broadband internet.
Goddamn, it’s good to be home, and among friends.
Tomorrow, I leave for Houston.
Tonight, I am privileged to sleep in my own bed.
Tomorrow, the […]
