Overcoming Mediocrity
I have found one of the hardest parts of being a Saints fan is the stigma of mediocrity that has followed the franchise around since 1967. To be honest, the team didn’t get off to a great start. I understand that. It took them a decade or so to achieve .500 and another decade to…
When Grits Attack!
Woman arrested in grits attack It’s on the West Bank! Call Seagal! The article says she threw the grits on him after he broke up with her. I am sure this will inspire him to reconsider.
Glad They Are On Our Side! Who Dat!
H/t someone named Bigshot at House of Pants… Following is a video of a fella (perhaps from the area) who told his “Eff-Bee” they could shoot his large screen TV if the Saints won. Well, they won. So… Also, here is an MP3 of the Rappin Readneck’s (not related to these other fellas) “Super Bowl…
Shadiest Wal-Mart in GNO?

It was a frustrating process that was detailed in this post back in 2007… When Enough Isn’t Enough But it’s gotten amazingly worse… Nov 16 – Web designer needed…
Whoa! Hey! James Perry!
When I read about the ad I actually thought it was worse than it actually turned out to be. But it seemed fine actually. I don’t have high expectations of politicians (local and otherwise) anyway so it’s not exactly offensive that one might use bleeped out cuss words in their ads. Though when Pants said…
Hurricane Forecasters do it…
… so I will do it too. You know how they wait until the middle of hurricane season to suddenly decide their awful predictions actually aren’t going to happen? Well, heh, see, I predicted the Saints would go 8-8- back in August and well, it seems like that is, well, it’s impossible actually. I even…
