Nola City Bark Opening Day

We attended the opening day of Nola City Bark with our rescue Frenchie Wyatt Earp and our pug Bugsy.  We had a great time as did the little dogs. As one owner said, “I’m not sure who is happier here, the dogs or their people.”  I put together the video below and set it to […]

WordPress upgrade

Well Twitter was all abuzz about a WordPress worm and sure enough a worm had been circulating attacking old versions of wordpress.  Well obviously I pretty much never post on this blog these days.   And wordpress is notorious for security issues.  This is partly due to the popularity of the product, partly due to problems […]

Paris

Over Thanksgiving, Jennifer and I took a weeklong vacation in Paris.  We’ve been talking about going for years and just put it off and put it off and finally just decided we had to go this year or we never would.  We haven’t been on a vacation together since 2004. So we started planning to […]

Resume update

Somehow, two and a half years have passed since I accepted my current position and I hadn’t kept my resume up to date. I fixed that today. I had actually kept a company-internal resume somewhat up to date but my public resume has just sat here missing all the stuff I’ve done. There was actually […]

New Guitar

One of the many things Katrina wrecked was my guitar equipment. I lost two amps — a Johnson modelling amp and a partice amp — and two guitars. The acoustic was decent but I really loved my electric. It was a Franken-guitar with an old Gibson Melody-Maker neck and an SG-type body. The body was […]

Living in New Orleans

A fellow nolugger wrote this article about New Orleans. I think much of the same could be said about European countries. Certainly my recent honeymoon to Spain had me thinking in a similar mode. Priorities, perspective, and values….

Wedding and Honeymoon Pics are up

We completely rearranged the online photo album and put up all the digital wedding pics we’ve received so far as well as the honeymoon pics. As always, the album is here.

Gettin’ Hitched

Well, I haven’t posted in a while but I’m planning to change that. The biggest news I have to report is that I’m getting hitched to Jennifer this September. The wedding is going to kept real small but, per family requests, I’ve started a separate site here. Out of town guests, (ie. her family), should […]

War

It’s hard to imagine anything positive to say about war — regardless of one’s opinions of the decisions that led up to it. Hopefully few (or none!) are hurt or killed and this ends quickly. Hopefully the divisions that have been created are mended. It’s hard for me to imagine positive outcomes but I hope […]

Mardi Gras is Over

Well, it’s finally come and gone and I for one shall miss it. Mardi Gras has to be my favorite holiday. It’s special. it’s different. Everywhere else, Tuesday was just another Tuesday. In New Orleans it’s so much more. Lots of people only think of Bourbon Street and baring body parts for beads. Sure that’s […]
