New Orleans Confidential


Great visit to the Crescent City this past weekend save the miserable LSU game. The team has given up on this season. Hard to believe this is the same bunch that played Alabama to OT.


We spent much of Sunday strolling around in the Vieux Carre' and drinking 32 ounce Pina Coladas. Friday lunch at Galley Seafood in Metairie near where we used to live, Friday night dinner at Brigtsen's (pronounced "Brightsons") just off Carrollton near Camilla Grill (where we ate breakfast Saturday morning). I weigh 5.5 lbs. more than I did Friday morning.

Stayed at the fabulous Windsor Court Hotel.

A fantastic weekend. Many thanks...

Some of the most memorable - for both good and bad reasons - days of my life occured in the "Big Sleazy". I am envious.

Sort of...

The boys over at Red Solo Cup http://redsolocup.blogspot.com/ are having them some fun. Miss State smack, LSU smack, pretty much the rest of the SEC smack. They're winning and winning is, uh, better than not. Still, a winning LSU Tiger program with Baton Rouge gameday, is one tough piece of boudin to beat.
