Kermit Ruffins has a song called New Orleans is… in which he ticks off a metric assload of things that help make this city what it is.
I love this song. It’s a toast to the town.
Kermit, I’d like to add another item.

I’m using my laptop right now, surfing the web through my work cell phone.
Since both the Treo 650 and the 12″ PowerBook use Bluetooth, I can connect them quickly, easily, and wirelessly.

I almost won.
I’m going to play this song at Andre and Leigh’s wedding, it’s just too perfect.

I do so love the Penny Arcade.
Roop thanked me today at Molly’s.
Outside of the people in my company, nobody has yet thanked me for doing my job.
Not that they necessarily know the extent of what rests on my shoulders.
I am the lone System Administrator for a Marine Underwriting firm here in NOLA.
What is that? Well, it’s a little tricky.

Jon Spencer died today.
