If you follow me on Twitter ( @dubtea ), you would have seen that yesterday that Bea had completed her first bike commute from our house in the Marigny to her office in Harahan. As you may or may not remember, she had quite a bit of trouble the last time she made the attempt… Continue reading Gas Money Records

Hasher’s Knee
Well, I think the trail I laid was pretty good, and got a lot of good feedback from it. If you want to read my write-up, you can at VooDooHash.com. The first hash I hared was a while ago with a friend of mine, and was a sheer and utter disaster for various reasons and… Continue reading Hasher’s Knee
Ruuunn for your liiiiiiife!
Ok chickens, I’m haring tonight’s VooDoo Hash. It’s in the Marigny – at Elysian Fields and Decatur. What? Hashers? What’s the deal? I hear you say. Familiar with the Red Dress Run? That’s us on a weekly basis (sans red dresses). We’re a drinking club with a running problem, and if you ‘re interested in… Continue reading Ruuunn for your liiiiiiife!
I almost shit myself.
If you were to take the polar opposite of how I feel about, say, The Silence of the Lambs, and apply it to the animal kingdom, you’d still wouldn’t have enough ill-will towards spiders. Oh, how do they revile me? Let the count the ways… Anyways, when it comes to these nasty little hellions, I… Continue reading I almost shit myself.
Hey there, Fancy Pants
A bit ago, I received word that Todd‘s awesome and affordable Hong Kong Tailor™ would be making his way on his U.S. Tour, and would be adding New Orleans to his list of destinations. I figured why not, and dropped him a visit when he came though – a scant 28 days ago! After all,… Continue reading Hey there, Fancy Pants
The gayest thing I’ve ever put in my mouth
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… Continue reading The gayest thing I’ve ever put in my mouth
Done is the Engine of More.
A while ago, I was introduced to the Cult of Done. For me, it is quite simple, quite obvious, and I identify with it on a number of levels. In the spirit of the manifesto set forth and in combination with a generally needed re-ordering of my day-to-day schedule and goals, I’ve figured out a… Continue reading Done is the Engine of More.
Saints ’09 / Drew Brees > Olympic Archer
The Saints have released their 2009 Schedule, and I am super excited. We have our season opener at home, 3 night games of which all are at home and one is on a Monday against those Dirty Birds, the Falcons. For me, the best omen/sign I see is that finally, there is no game at… Continue reading Saints ’09 / Drew Brees > Olympic Archer
Choose the Form of the Destructor
For those of you who live in areas that are not densely populated with Oak Trees, allow me to introduce to you an insect so vile, so heinous, so abhorred, that it is universally referred to as the Scourge of the South*. In more common terms, it is the Buck Moth Caterpillar. These caterpillars arrive… Continue reading Choose the Form of the Destructor
The Silence of the Legos
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… Continue reading The Silence of the Legos
