Trade wives and sell children...

Was about the ONLY thing not going on today in the streets. Mind you I am not so sure on the trading wives thing. Reagardless, it was Mardi Gras day. A metric buttload of people in kool costumes, drunk fools, and drunk fools in kool costumes.

I decided not to work and just wander around. I got as decadent as I could by drinking a coke, eating a butter finger and carrying around a bag of Doritos in Jackson Square. (I'm a party aminal I tells yah.) So now it's 40 days and 40 nights of rain.. no wait.. of lent. So for those who gave up lent for lent.. good for you.

I decided not to take photos today for two reasons. One: I left the camera in the car. B: you really need to experience Mardi Gras for yerself so you have to get off yer lazy ass like I did and come see it. Also if you REALLY wanna see photos I am sure there are plenty of sites to see them.

So thaz my report from NOLA. This journal is now official closed until my trip to Chicago in a few months. we'll keep yaah updated. Thanx for joining us!!

I hate the sea and everything in it....

Mind you I am referring to the sea of idiots here in Nawlins. I actually accomplished one of my goals and got invited to a private party and got to stand on a balcony on Bourbon Street. Allow me to prove it to you...





ok so no big deal right? Well look at it at NIGHT!!!


Morons as far as the eye can see.

See that guy in the first one? With the big "Jeebus" sign? Yah they are EVERYWHERE out here. Personally we think it's a hell of a ploy. "I can't go party in NOLA buuuuuut if I am (Finger quotes)saving souls(/Finger Quotes) then I can GO!! YAY JEEBUS!!" Anywho.. not everyone likes them.



Now when one guy is holding a sign and the other is saying "Satan loves you, he wants you to have fun" well damn.. thaz entertainment.


(To the guy with the signs testament, he was having fun with it. Guy with a sense of humor who is religious. GASP!!)

Of course tonight was the best ironic moment when we snapped this photo...


Personally I think God is in trouble with people like this working for him.


All right enuff of that, let's meet some of the last street performers here in NOLA.

This girl is one of the crate slugs (See: statue mime) I actually like.


This is Valentino from Yugoslavia.. he's kool.


Here's another... his face and alla the marionettes.


This girl drums for yer dollars. Nice person too.


RANDOMNESS!!! A float I snapped a photo of out the car window... great sculpture.


ok ok.. last few.. this is one of the first people I met out here at the beggining of the month.


And this is Jamie. She is an artist and crazy.. ina good way.


We'll be back on the 10th in Dallas to film a pilot for a TV show. More on that later. Tomorrow I go see Cowboy Mouth!! Be kool everyone.

Bizzaro.

Oh one last thing... we went to a little fetishy/goth thing the other night...

and in two months on A&E you MIGHT get to see me doing magic for Gene Simmons.

Would you say I have a plethora of pinata's?

No but damn there is a lot of photos...


one of the many "mimes" NOLA has to offer. This is Uncle Louie. He stands like that for a very long time.


I give you.. the graffiti on the public bathroom wall.


Another statue mime. His name is Tim and beer makes him work.


Sometimes I think about just standing still in my strait jacket to make money.


This one actually does something. Moves around like a wind up doll and makes mechanical sounds. Quite nifty. (You can see more of Ahda Hann Here).


Ok a mime is a terrible thing to waste... kinda. This is a juggler guy who unicycle with a kid on him. Can you say liability?


I think this is titled "Bobbit if he got caught stealing in Muslim country".


Bird man. That is all.


Finally my hand as it looked Sunday night after someone got a little buzzed and bored. (note: not me.)

This is just a taste of the zany crap gong on out here. Right now the weather is cold, rainy, and ass.

Hope all is well where you are.
