So 2008 is here. I've been back to work for almost 9 hours now and I've yet to put "2007" on anything, so things are rolling pretty good. New Year's Eve was a success. Average turn out, quantity-wise. Roughly 40 or so people. Everybody was cool and the best of the best were there. The beer was d...

Just a quick note. My sister has a blog that as of August 29, 2005 became a Katrina blog. It's documented her experience staying in the city during the storm, escaping the city to Baton Rouge and later Morgan City, and every bit of work put into coming back home and cleaning, getting loans and i...

Seven hundred and thirty days ago, my city was under water. My home was surrounded by water. So many of my fellow New Orleanians died; many more of us had a part of us die. Every single person in the metro area has a story to tell, be it about themselves or a coworker or a friend of a friend. This ...

The last vacation I took was roughly 3 years ago. I went with Calie and her family to Navarre Beach. It was a blast. I've not taken a vacation since then. Partly because of Katrina, partly because of cash flow, and partly because my old boss, Adolf Stalin, didn't give me paid vacation time until ri...

It's been some time, and I need to update. So, Alex moved out of the Cabin. He's living with his dad now. He still has a key and drops by, so we haven't lost him. Just sucks we don't have the four of us dudes here all the time. On the plus side of that, I moved down the hall into Alex's room,...

Ladies and gentlemen, grab yourselves a beer and put some popcorn in the microwave. I had an epiphany tonight and it's changed my life. I've been watching How I Met Your Mother on DVD with Aimée and Mark. It's an amazing show and Neil Patrick Harris is phenom in it. But I digress. Anyhow, ...
Monday, February 19, 2007 11:26pm
So, one day, I woke up. I woke up and it came to me as if it was some sort of instinctual trait that's been lying dormant for the past 23 years. I'm confident. Re-read that before you continue. Done? Okay, pressing on. Here's how it all happened. As anyone who knows me or reads my blog kno...

I'm going to do a run down on the past couple of weeks. I'll get a solid post up sometime soon. As I mentioned earlier, I've met a girl. Her name's Brandi. I guess I should say she met me because she was the one with the guts to say anything. Anyway, after a few weeks of me halfway talking to h...

Work: Awesome. Couldn't love it more. Weekend: Freaking great. Started on Thursday with 80s night, rocked high for Lance and Mimi's party, and topped off with a fun Saturday at the Cabin with some new guests. Website: Working on a new social networking website that is combinging the best idea...
Wednesday, September 06, 2006 10:31pm
On a more serious note, I've made a documentary about how far along (or how little far along) New Orleans has gotten in the last year. I filmed it over Labor Day weekend with the help of my cousin and her husband driving and navigating me through the city. The camera's a bit shakey, but I was in...
Wednesday, June 07, 2006 6:45pm
I'll go ahead and get this out of the way: I did a new layout. I've been working with this for a while and I finally made it happen. I'm pretty satisfied with it, although there's a couple of issues with the bottom of the page, but I'm not overly concerned about that right now. I'm really very happ...
Tuesday, April 18, 2006 9:52pm
Since I don't get Comedy Cental anymore, I had to download the last two episodes of "South Park." I watched them both tonight. “South Park" said exactly what I've been saying for a while about "Family Guy:" It's nothing but pop culture references, flashbacks, and mildly offensive jokes. ...

It's official: I've launched Rate-Everything.com . The site was all Alex and Kevin's ideas, then I jumped in and made the site. It uses the Frisbee software I wrote that powers Frobba. Rate Everything will attempt to rate, well, everything. While other sites only rate music, or movies, or games...

My dad, uncle, and their mechanic made it into Orleans Parish today via an escort from their NOPD friend Eric. They went to go check on the family BP Station in Lakeview. The newest pics in my Katrina set in my Flickr photostream show you how it looks inside the station now that the water has r...

A lot of people got affected by Katrina. Some lost some shingles or a tree, some lost their homes or lives. My sister and brother-in-law went through a lot by riding out the storm in the destroyed Hyatt Hotel downtown and ultimately losing their home to the 17th Street Canal breach. She's bee...

I want out. I want to go back home. I can't handle this anymore. I'm trapped. I have 6 cable channels, 3 of which air the same thing 75% of the time, all of which air news and Katrina updates, save for the Home Shopping Network. I have dial-up AOL internet. I'm not in my own bed. I'm not in m...

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina we have many questions. One major question is simply “Why?” Why us? Why did this happen to the fine people of New Orleans, Louisiana? No one will ever know. That’s why it’s called a natural disaster. Sure, we could go into the science of hurricanes and how they redi...
Tuesday, September 06, 2005 11:03pm
As per Jefferson Parish President Aaron Broussard's promise, my mom, my dad, my sister, and I went back into Metairie to take a look at our homes and see what damage was done. We first went to my parents' house in the Elmwood Park subdivision in Metairie, just outside Kenner. The first thing we ...

Here's my recent posts on MySpace, syndicated here: August 31 I'm on dial-up via a free AOL disc from Wal-Mart. We're in Auburn, probably till Friday when we'll trek to Morgan City to meet up with Mae and Mark. I don't know if I have a job anymore. The Edgwater Mall in Biloxi is nonexist...
Wednesday, August 31, 2005 1:43am
This is my city. The city I just recently fell in love with. It's now gone. Possibly 10 feet of water at my parents' house. Probably 5+ feet at my house. My sisters' house? Completely submerged. My fathers' business is probably gone as well. Everything my family has worked for is gone. ...

It's been some time, I know. So, this weekend consisted of me working and watching some movies. Some Fourth, huh? Anyways, Thursday night, the whole gang went to go see Batman Begins. It was fantastic. Michael Kane was a great Alfred. The movie was a great beginning to the franchise. It, like...

It's been an eventful week. My dad is still in the hospital. Tuesday (Wednesday?) makes two weeks. His white blood cell count shot up and the bleeding started again. As of yesterday, the bleeding has ceased, but the white cell count is still up. They suspect it's from one of the medications. He'...

Walked the MS Walk a while back. Good ol' Uncle Lance sent me some pics. There's a few gems in there. I like the ones of me best. Click images to enlarge. Aimée and my cousin Alicia, with Mark on the side. Me and Gootee, future roommate Me, Mark, and Gootee, and Alicia's husband Ku...

So Aimée and Mark got married last weekend. It was awesome. The wedding was cool and the reception was a lot of fun. I gave this really cool speech that everyone loved because I'm the best at making speeches. Well, not really, but it was good. They went to Gulf Shores for their honeymoon. They got ...
Friday, February 15, 2002 3:26pm
So my sister is getting married on April 6. And that's awesome. I'm really very proud of her. But there's something bothering me. She's not doing anything. Oh she's planning for the wedding alright. She's got her dress, the bridesmaids' dresses, the tuxedos, the cakes, the DJ, the reception hall, t...
