Conglomeration of cool.

The New New Orleans Initiative – Public Advocacy for the Appropriate Reconstruction of New Orleans. Harvey Danger‘s new album, Little by Little, is available for free from their site via zip (160kbs) file or bittorrent (higher VBR). Kudos for making a statement. I, however, don’t think I’m cool/hip enough to listen to it though. Made… Continue reading Conglomeration of cool.

The kite-strip pops…

Here I sit, in my apartment in NOLA. No, this isn’t a delayed post. I was drinking at Molly’s earlier, and I have electricity, running water (clean enough to flush), cable tv, and broadband internet. Goddamn, it’s good to be home, and among friends. Tomorrow, I leave for Houston. Tonight, I am privileged to sleep… Continue reading The kite-strip pops…

The first thing I notice when I sit down at the bar: the copper bar top is cool, and somehow, they channel… Continue reading fook. ass.

Hi, my name is…

… Gozer the Traveler™. Yes, kids, this is the true reason why I don’t usually travel. Three days before Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, I started making my way to Houston. Remember Ivan last year? I stayed at Molly’s and drank the whole time. Did it hit NOLA? I think not. This past Thursday I… Continue reading Hi, my name is…

Home, Sweet More-Or-Less Home.

09-15-05 8:45 PM I sit here, enjoying a gentle breeze on the third floor balcony of Chateau Willcore™, in the Garden District of New Orleans. It’s very dark. And very quiet. Our city is battered, bruised, and knocked down, but will get back up. It’s conjoined twin, Chalmette, it seems has bore the brunt of… Continue reading Home, Sweet More-Or-Less Home.
