On Sunday, Mrs. theskinnyonbenny and I took Velvet Elvis up to Bay St Louis. I've probably written about it before, but to get out of the lake and into the great wide world, we have to go through the intercoastal canal. This starts with a pass through the city, down the canal that separates New Orleans from New Orleans East.

I’m currently on book 13 of the Alan Lewrie series. He’s a British sea captain, along the lines of Jack Aubrey. Like Captain Aubrey, he’s a capable sea captain who treats his crew well. Unlike Captain Aubrey, he really likes to gamble, drink, and fuck.

I suspect that a locally loved shop right close to me might be harboring a real piece of shit out here in plain sight.

There is one industry where the job market is ripe for former LSU head coaches. If you're a former LSU head coach, the LSU Athletic Department is hiring. Take a look.

Ko did some googling on his great grandfather this week.

I've got a very embarrassing story about something that happened with charter guests and then some thoughts about our Easter and French Quarter Festival weekends in New Orleans.

A few weeks ago, I was full of confidence that LSU baseball was about to turn things around. Is there still time to get hot?

This weekend, V and I went to the inaugural Bayou Jeep Bash outside of New Orleans. This was a Jeep-specific festival that featured the most tricked-out Jeeps you can imagine along with normal festival type food and music.

I got a reminder of a neighbor who used to live next door. I guess I never posted about him at the time, because it would be embarrassing for him to see it. Now I'm old, and I feel certain that Louie has bigger fish to fry.

There are some stories in that little window where I was an adult, but I didn't write stories for this dumb website. This is one of those.

I have one story about a bunny on a bike and a completely unrelated one about a mysterious noise in the middle of the night.

Did you know that the TV show Lassie ran for 19 seasons? That dog was older than Mehusiwoof. Also, out of the hundreds of episodes, there was never one where Timmy fell down a well. That's just a joke trope. There was even an episode called "The Well," but no one fell into said well.
