Le Bon Temps: April 2009
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 16, 2009. This blog is something that only occurred to me after we moved to the new house in the new neighbourhood and I suddenly felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. Something about the old place, could be the frequent gunshots, the bars on every window or the unbelievably hearty cockroaches, but something about the old place just didn't vibe with me. The new place is too nice for us. There, I said it. Posted by bawdy bookworm. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Le Bon Temps: Christmas and the Saints
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009/12/christmas-and-saints.html
Thursday, December 10, 2009. Christmas and the Saints. The weather has been all over the place here for the last two weeks. Yesterday it reached 70 degrees then today we had to get the jackets out again. No snowflakes in sight, of course, but it is damp and chilly. The New Orleans Saints, Ladies and Gentlemen! I can't even explain that craziness. People around here don't say "Hi" anymore, hey say "12-0! Posted by bawdy bookworm. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). There was an error in this gadget.

Le Bon Temps: Obama's First Visit to the Crescent City
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009/10/obamas-first-visit-to-crescent-city.html
Thursday, October 15, 2009. Obama's First Visit to the Crescent City. Wow, two posts in one day. Very impressive on my part, however I'm getting a bit sleepy so this one will be brief. So Obama came to visit today, for 3 hours and 45 minutes or something like that. I was ensconced in my office for all of that time but RJ tells me it was not fun stuff to drive in. I know politicians have to act that confident about their plans but it was nice to hear some concrete ideas in areas of concern to the gulf sou...

Le Bon Temps: July 2009
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 15, 2009. The joy of my Sunday nights. Only two months into this blog thing and I've already become the stop-and-start kind of writer. I don't really have that much of an excuse other than that since we got back from vacation I have felt sooooo. Lazy and unwilling to go back to anything routine. The other reason for my blog hiatus. The show is based on a book series called The Southern Vampire Mysteries by Charlaine. The director is Alan Ball, who wrote and directed Six Feet Under for HBO...

Le Bon Temps: August 2009
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Saturday evening was the annual Dirty Linen Night, the French Quarter's version of a follow up festival to White Linen Night. I've been informed that the name of the festival comes from the idea that one could wear the same soiled white outfit from the previous weekend and fit in just fine with the crowd on Royal Street. I must say, I really liked Dirty Linen much better in terms of vibe and. And Craig Tracy's Bodypainting Gallery. Like New Orleans, in a way that is hard to put ...

Le Bon Temps: Christmas, Canada and the New Orleans SAINTS
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2010/02/christmas-canada-and-new-orleans-saints.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. Christmas, Canada and the New Orleans SAINTS. Creeps shamefully back onto blog-sphere*. I realize I have been absent from my blog for a good long while now. All I can say is that my schedule has been intense between the two jobs. Since I've now been inaugurated into the world of mobile-blogging I hope that my pattern of blog-dodging can come to an end.

Le Bon Temps: May 2009
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. Can you ever have too many friends? It's so much fun to hear their stories and find out how they like the city. So we are getting ready for our upcoming trip, trying to decide how much we need to cram into the carry on in case of lost luggage (we have two separate connections, I worry! A couple New Orleans blogs I've discovered that are worth checking out:. New Orleans Murder Blog. Overheard in New Orleans. Posted by bawdy bookworm. Thursday, May 21, 2009. I actually can't stand foo...

Le Bon Temps: September 2009
http://newlynola.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 11, 2009. Katrina in the Courts. This Times-Picayune article caught my eye because I happened to catch the story on Democracy Now last week during their Katrina anniversary special edition:. Investigation into Memorial deaths during Katrina to be reopened by Orleans Parish district attorney. Also, on a side note, is it me or is the Times-Picayune using the absolute worst photo of Leon Cannizzaro. Is that actually how he looks? And is that actually the newspaper's stock photo? I was shoc...
