The 2010 March of the St. Anthony Ramblers
Drinks and breakfast at 9, march at 10. We are again fortunate to have Panorama Brass Band tour with us throughout the day, and in order to cover the cost of these minstrels and the early morning feast, we ask for a $25 contribution – a paltry sum [...]
M: ya, after the game we all poured into our cars and drove home to shoot off some fire works
we didn’t want to walk the extra half-block to go into the big open field, so we decided that it would be fine to shoot them off in the neutral ground right under the power lines
P [...]
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 [...]
The following email was forwarded to me by my father. It was written by a good friend of his and attorney (we won’t hold that against him) Chip Saunders:

I hate taggers. Speaking in broad generalizations, I think taggers just a group of people who, unable to make their mark on the world, decide the next best step is to write their pseudonym in permanent marker on other people’s property. It’s juvenile and immature, and shows a distinct lack of respect for others. I’m [...]
I’m getting old. Well, not old in the numbers sense as I just passed the 29½ mark, but more in the “I’d rather stay in” sense. And I must admit, it’s not a bad thing.
For me, Halloween started on Thursday, with a VooDoo hash where I ended up running circle in a cemetery and talking [...]
Possible alternate titles: ZOMGBIES! or Zombies? In my New Orleans? It’s more likely than you think.
So, the demo for Left 4 Dead 2 became available today for those who pre-ordered it.
HOLY KATRINA FLASHBACKS, BATMAN!
The short of L4D: it’s a first-person shooter set in a zombie apocalypse, and 4 people have survived – you have to [...]
Well, the web (or at least my little corner of it) is all a-flutter with Katrina posts, as it made landfall 4 years ago.
It’s an important event in our lives – not just as New Orleanians or Louisianians specifically, but for Americans and people as a whole.
I’m not going to get into a re-cap of [...]
*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 [...]
