You may recognize me from such places as #NOLAtwitter. You may address me as Sir El Spotto, as befits my status as a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Sealand (OMS), or you can just call me El Spotto. It ain’t that big a deal.

I was in Homedale so I would head up to the Lake with a snowball.

Just park on a turnaround on the Causeway. Unobstructed western horizon.

Bonus: the pollution from the refineries adrenal plants makes them stunningly orange.

That we are at the point someone is saying this sucks because they could have stopped all this so much easier at pretty much any point in the past freakin decade.

After that last season of big brother, I am beginning to think these long running reality competitions have run out of people who actually play.

Of all the things I miss about New Orleans, those long ass power outages aren’t one of them.

Yea verily, I too rode the monorail to the (at that point in time) Jimi Hendrix Experience and Sci-fi Hall of Fame.

As one does…

I hated the idea that was floating before I left about closing off most of the crossovers on canal for streetcar safety, but dang people make it look like a good idea sometimes.

I love my Iowa based credit union. Just got an email reminding me the offices are closed on the 13th for Indigenous Peoples Day. That’s right. Didn’t even mention the Great Enslaver.

Which reminds me…get more popcorn for the inevitable WH meltdown about that.

Mmm chicken florentine soup.

The number of times I saw people pull in front of or otherwise do dumb stuff around the Canal streetcars was immense. Big red box with a bright light on the front and annoying mechanical bell. And you…stopped on the tracks.

Since she began drawing ire for being a successful female artist who asked her fans to vote without telling them for whom they should, this old metalhead who hung with goths has been a fan of her, if not her music.

This is exactly what I was saying last night but in a more partisan way. No work, no pay. No work, no job. Apply it to all congressfolk regardless of affiliation.

McGovern: Republicans love to advocate for more work requirements for poor people… Let's have a work requirement for Republicans to show up to congress and do your god damn job.

We are being run by a reality tv show host. Reality tv uses zingers for ratings. Ratings equal success. So much success is being had.

Ok, when I didn’t agree that your CEO having his own walk in music was weird? I have changed my mind.

Stocks, broths, soups, and stews. All in heavy rotations here. Salads with chilled meats during warm weather.

Last year was the first year I didn’t order “spicy like your mom hates me for dating your sister” hot from the Thai place we visit on the outer banks. Turns out that’s the main flavor in drunken noodles.

Saw them on Presto in Hampton VA before we drove all night to Montreal for spring break. It gets better: the stage crew pushed and pulled on them to make them dance. 😂🤣

Knobby says his girlfriend goes to school in Canada and you would know her. But…you’re basically in suburban Vancouver, so maybe?
