“Freedom is measured by the distance between church and state”
Well, okay, not TOTALLY crappy, but after such a fupduk sleep last night, and a couple odd little naps during the day, my body and brain are just not in synch. Yuck!
But the good parts of the day … I returned a couple movies to Blockbuster (“Capote” - pretty good; “The Aristocrats” - vulgar [...]
Well, dang it!!! it is just now about 4:50 a.m. I have been awake since just after 2:00 a.m. I turned off the lights and went to bed (futon on living room floor, actually), at 9:00 last night, and didn’t take even five minutes to fall asleep. I slept well, and hard, until I woke [...]
No really… shit. human waste and debris. All over.
It has now been reported that Katrina messed up the sewer systems. Uhhh… okay, so the city is pumping out 150 gallons of water, with only 30 gallons actually reaching it’s destination because of all the ruptured pipes everywhere … and now we learn [...]

to a nasty thunderstorm barrelling through here. It seems to have moved on and now I can get the computer back on and start updating things. Much to do today.
Okay, so what I did yesterday doesn’t seem to be working, sh*t.
No matter. I have become somewhat accustomed to the notion of “starting over”. Hell, this whole blog (this new blog) is about starting over in my New Life, post-Katrina, post-LSU, and (soon to be) post-New Orleans. very cool.
But I still have to figure out [...]
