I can’t believe it. I actually wish it was cold. I made some split pea soup and a grilled cheese and sat on my bed and watched one of mine and Andee’s favorite movies: The Hunt for the Red October. I can’t believe I wish it was cold. Eh, it’s time for tea.

Child’s Play
I just bought a Playstation 2. I will never play it, much less see it. Child’s Play is a charity that was created by the guys behind one of my favorite webcomics, Penny Arcade. At the most basic level Child’s Play is a way for gamers to help sick kids in Children’s Hospitals. These hospitals… Continue reading Child’s Play

Non Central Standard
Yes, I’m going to be That Guy™. No, not the one that wears the t-shirt of the band he’s about to see, but the one that posts up song lyrics. No, I’m not being overly melodramatic, but I really like this song, and, well, empathize with Luke here. It’s kinda also been a “theme song”… Continue reading Non Central Standard
The Second Line
There is something truly special about a second line. I have participated in second lines in everything from weddings to funerals, Mardi Gras to St. Patrick’s Day to Halloween.

Have you hugged a tree lately?
John has. Heh. Yesterday was a blast, despite the fact that I had no energy, felt like ass, and was half-delirious. But I still managed to eek out a lap at Hooper. And now, I will impart to you my off-road wisdom: There is no shame in falling, nor is there shame in walking your… Continue reading Have you hugged a tree lately?

… And All The World Is Green
Im trying to come up with an summary of the past three weeks, but words fail me. I’ll try though. If you were to take a tour of the city, only paying attention to the physical state of the city, depression would come easily. The buildings and whole neighborhoods that need to be razed is… Continue reading … And All The World Is Green
I’ll steal your pop-tarts like I stole your socks.
Step up sucker, understand? Don’t you know, I’m the man! So it’s official. On Thursday, October 20th, I became The Man™. Since we have a limited staff here in our New Orleans office, it was decided that I should be added to the list of those who can co-sign checks, so that our Claims department… Continue reading I’ll steal your pop-tarts like I stole your socks.
