    Where do you hang your hat?

    We found ourselves in a classic New Orleans neighborhood joint Friday night. The place is called Liuzza's and it's an experience. Well, I found it good, but well over-priced, but that's not the point, is it. Anyway, our table was right in front of the "restaurant entrance" which is no longer...

    Difference between Cuenca and Montecristi?

    :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: <rolls eyes> That's a custom that began in Andalusia. Andalusia is a province in the southern part of Spain, in Europe on the Iberian Peninsula. Most of the sailors and those who "conquered" the New World, came from that area of Spain. They brought with them religious...

    Food Network

    Paul Prudhomme is, on New Orleans PBS. I like the Food Network. Infotainment, is better than soulless sit-coms. and other offerings on network television, in my estimation. I can let my kids watch it and they'll learn something, as well as be willing to try and DO something constructive. They...

    How we dress and what we drive

    Not a real gear head, but Chrysler's design studio is turning out the nicest looking cars. But I've heard tell, they're not technically sound underneath the skin. I can no way substantiate that however. I did see an article within the last week, that the Crossfire will be discontinued.

    Your First Major League Baseball Game

    dherman I agree completely with decrepit ball parks. There's a living history and sense of rootedness in those places. As for minor league ball. New Orleans had the Pelicans of the Southern League into the mid 1960s. In 1960 they abandoned Pelican Stadium which, if it were there, I would be...

    I'd like an update on that article as it's already nine years old. But, MAN, what a fantastic tradition.

    Difference between Cuenca and Montecristi?

    That's what I did. Stan, that garb in the costuming pre-dates the KKK by centuries. The anonymity subjugates the sense of self, much like a monk's habit or a nun's habit. It's for community purpose, and sacrificing one's own ego for the community, rather than as cover for evil deeds....."that...

    Your First Major League Baseball Game

    Best as I can recollect, July of 1976. Dodgers vs. Cubs in Los Angeles. We were visiting my cousin who lived out there. It was ok, had seats way up in Dodger Stadium. Next one I remember was a couple years later, Reds. Vs. Cards. in Busch. We got into St. Louis too late the night before, and...

    Chumleys - NY Speakeasy Institution Near Death

    If smokers congregated there, then it's a good thing it's going away.

    Smoke-easies

    Don't forget the new BBC Sherlock Holmes will be pipeless. It's interesting that normally tax-happy politicians haven't compromised on this at ALL. There's a good bit of money to be made by local governments to compromise on smoking bans. Why, a "tobacco licensing fee" could be lucrative. But...

    The End of an Era.

    Combine this with the anti-authoritarian movement that sought to eschew any type of arbitrary "authority" including law-enforcement--"the fuzz, the pigs"--and etiquette which is all quite arbitrary. And, there you go.

    All you Bostonians...need your help!

    We did that, too. Fried for the faint-hearted, chargrilled for variety.
