Tomorrow morning, I head out of Rogers AR after a week at the Military Order of the Purple Heart Convention. I ran into JJ Wiitmeyer, who I had on my radio show in December, while at the conference. He took a fall while in AR and it was decided he needed a traveling companion. All …
This article hit me this morning as something with some serious inconsistencies &/or agenda. We already know the Times-Picayune endorsed Obama, he won and now we must all move forward. This is not newsworthy (IMHO), it is looking for trouble. The comments made me want to vomit because everyone commenting on it has the , …

What a well-worded editorial. Below is a quote from the editorial. But the criminal investigation isn’t Mayor Price’s only problem. Even short of criminal charges, he has shown horrendous leadership. He ought to step aside and let Mandeville choose a new mayor. The problem is, he will not resign. He already stated he won’t and …
Scratching my head in confusion as to why the Times-Picayune placed an editorial about the Mandeville City Council, patting them on the back, today. Is this a little T-P guilt band-aid for all Cindy Chang’s scathing headlines? Something stinks here as it does with my city’s local government. If the City Council had the best …
As I read the Sunday Times-Picayune today (who doesn’t) and got to Chris Rose’s column – it made me pause and caused me some extra soul-searching this week. You see, no matter how much I write about my experiences over the past year and 5 months (wow – time flies) since my family moved to …
Recently, in the Times-Picayune, we have had headlines about people in the school systems getting arrested for “inappropriate & sexual” contact with minors. I will put my humor aside for this post and would like to give big kudos to everyone who is helping taking these predators down. There is the Destrehan band teacher in …
There are three side effects of acid: enhanced long-term memory, decreased short-term memory, and I forget the third. ~Timothy Leary~ Pedro: Hey how am I driving, man? Man Stoner: [looks around] : I think we’re parked. ~Up in Smoke – Cheech & Chong 1978~ I’m here NOLA, St. Tammany, Louisiana, world – “The Princess of …
My week isn’t really ruined from this, but it sounded like a good post title. I’m the freaking Princess of Positive fercryingoutloud. But, once again, the “poor and homeless” situation in New Orleans is disgracing our great state in the public eye. I’ve been well embedded into the internet for over 3 years and know …
Well, when you have your neighborhood Christmas party sponsored by Abita beer and Santa happens to be one of your favorite neighbors, who happens to be a plastic surgeon, you can imagine the requests. This is a long post for me – but worth the read!!! Let me back up here (tire screech sound effect). …
I wasn’t even going to post this morning as I posted yesterday afternoon. After getting up at 5 and doing my usual morning reading – I had to write before my head exploded and made an awful mess all over my laptop (blogging is my free therapy). Children – the world is about children, whether …
This is my own little op-ed with incessant ramblings. Hey, give me a break, I’m a blogger (not a journalist) and you have to bare with me while I piece together the random jumbled thoughts that the hamster in my brain is generating! Can you see the surprised look on my face when the world …
* I want to blog – write whatever I want – unedited * I want people to read my blog on NOLA.com and my personal blog * I want to “brand” myself as the “go to” blogger for St. Tammany and the greater New Orleans area * I want to entertain people and bring a …

Many thanks to Milena Merrill my videographer for making me look good:) Enjoy! (c/p at NOLA.com)
My dad always told me to be nice to the janitors (custodian is more pc now). I give him credit for instilling this philosophy in me – because I took it seriously. This may sound like a corny philosophy, but it is why I am the way I am (besides large amounts of caffeine). When …
