Though it looks like a very resplendent and classy venue, it is sadly not in any way an extension of this blog. But if anyone is looking, it looks like a nice spot to get hitched… The Chicory … an elegant venue for your New Orleans wedding ceremony and reception, features exposed beams, brick walls,…

RE: Hello Kristin Palmer!
Dear Mr. Vargas, Thank you for your e-mail. The Councilmember asked me to follow up with you regarding this issue. We have reported it to Traffic Engineering under the Department of Public Works. If we have not received a response in one week, we will follow up with them. Best, Mary Mary Cunningham Director, Constituent…
Tea What?
Even though I’m hungover from drinking too many of those Abita SOS beers last night, I couldn’t help but be tickled this morning by this…
Hello Kristin Palmer!
Hello Kristin Palmer! Congratulations on your election to the District C city council seat earlier this year! That’s how many in a row for Algerines?

Need The Experts Again…
Hopes high for cap on well, but testing delayed Maitri or Clay or anyone else, I’m reading this article and, really, I am skimming the whole thing trying to get to the part about the relief wells, which I have been told over and over again is the “real solution.” So I find them at…
‘Some Claim’
Even though I got all Doomsday last week, there’s nothing like a smattering of bullshit to get one’s head back on straight. I can’t help but post my favorite phrases from this story I read recently. (HT-Kim) The author does use many citations throughout the story but most of them are based on findings that…
