"Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?" I brought Mardi Gras beads to the entire office today and I'm having beignets delivered this afternoon. But I'd give just about anything to be down on Rampart street today.

check that cam again three hours after the party's over: it'll be spotless. the new orleans street teams have every other city beat all hollow.

ah- meet me at Molly's On The Market - but not during this time of year! I like my puke and urine smell at a tad bit lower levels...hmm- maybe that's why I live in Baltimore- it's like N.O. Lite on the smell side (but w/ more murder and other bad stuff...and not as good food...damn) To everyone there: have fun and be safe! Hoist a Hurricane for me!

what a gyp! I watched for 15 minutes...not one lousy Boob Flash! And here I sit with beads and everything...1500 miles away, but come on, what's a man gotta do?! Ahhh...don't mind me. I just wish I was there. Booze, Jambalaya, Zydeco and Public Nudity sound like just the ticket for this overworked, freezing New Englander. So those of you down there, les Bon Temp Roullet!

Happy Paczki Day! One of the things I miss about living in Detroit--real paczki, not the overpriced jelly donuts that I compulsively buy out here on the prairie...

Booze, Jambalaya, Zydeco and Public Nudity Ahh, that is truly heaven, jonmc! And add to that the free short stack that our fearless leader mentions in the sideblog, and you're done on yer way to freakin' nirvana! And I must say how great it is that the boys have gotten into the flashing act as well... Booze, Jambalaya, Zydeco, Pancakes, Naked Boys... Um, how long do you think it takes to drive from New Haven, CT to New Orleans?

How Far is it? Distance between New Haven, Connecticut, United States and New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, as the crow flies: 1227 miles (1975 km) (1066 nautical miles)

Though, the temperature in New Orleans today is a chilly 52 degrees and dropping, so if you take "shrinkage" into account, it may not be worth your time, Evan.

*stripping off sweatpants* Great idea, jonmc! C'mon, everybody! Hey, I think that's why I like MeFi so much... a place where 13,000 people in underwear or less get together to argue about the House of Saud, global economic policy, and pancakes! Think about how many of us are in the altogether when we post... ColdChef: (sigh) yeah, I forgot about the shrinkage. I imagined it was warm in New Orleans... By the way, did anyone avail themselves of the free pancakes at IHOP today?
