For those of you who know what /b/ or 4chan is, you know that it tends to be the absolute dregs of the internet. We’re talking the depths of the Marianas Trench bad. I’d link, but if you really want to check it out on your own, you have to find it – and it [...]
Forwarded to me by Dustin, too good not to pass along:
1. Every time they mention hurricane Katrina, drink 1
2. If they show pictures of the City of New Orleans right after Katrina, drink 1
3. [...]
My old landlord Louis Maistros directed me to this video on Mr. Okra – a man I dare say is a New Orleans institution.
Well, maybe not New Orleans, but definitely a Quarter / Marigny / Bywater / 9th Ward institution. He’s like the ice cream man, but nowhere near as annoying or tooth-rotting. I love [...]
*phew* Red Dress week is over! It’s been a long week, and as much fun as it’s been, I’m glad it’s over.
For me, it started on Thursday. The VooDoo hosted a Red Dress Run, hared/led by myself and Fill Me Up (fellow VooDooer) through the Marigny. It was really more of a crawl, but still [...]
So, despite having picked up a horrid summer cold, I am still determined to go to the 12:01AM showing of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince tonight.
In honor of that, twitter had a “yo mama” style contest, and here are the honorable mentions in all their wizardly glory:

Good news everyone!
I’ve invented a device which makes you read this in your head, in my voice!
I know this is old, but it popped in my head and is pretty funny. If you don’t know the reference, click here.
Well, I lied. Tennis is decidedly not metal, but that didn’t stop me yesterday.
My friend Alice (aka Diamondgrrl – rollerderby, aka Comissioner Gordon – kickball) and Anne (aka All the Way May – kickball) took me out to City Park, and we tennied. Tennised. Tenniserated. Yeah, tenniserated. I like that – it’s got a certain [...]
I recently did some laptop repair for an employee of Bicycle Michael’s, and in return, he worked on track bike. Working on my bikes is something I rarely feel like doing these days, and those wheels were in need of a truing.
Well, Jon did some great work – even went so far as to install [...]
This past Friday, Bea and I laced up our skates and headed over to Airline Skate Center, for her Dad’s birthday party.
I haven’t laced up my skates since the last roller derby bout I reffed since I retired (they were in a bind, so I helped on one bout), which was in late May or [...]
It is no big secret that The Silence of the Lambs is hands-down one of my favorite movies.
A few years ago I stumbled across two different “fan offerings” that I instantly connected with – Silence! The Musical and The Greenskeepers song, “Lotion”:
Yeah, right up my alley.
Well, as much as I like that video, someone recently [...]
