Sunrise

Winter in Southeast Louisiana provides a gentler alternative to the Northern states. Where they have snow, we have fog. This was taken January 26th.

Belated Windows Wednesday

It's been a heck of a two weeks for me. I have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation and have had a lot of episodes in the last two weeks, thus the reason for no Windows Wednesday. I purchased the book Beat Your A-Fib and will learn how to keep things in control. This is NOT fun stuff.

But I digress.

Here is a shot of the stained glass window at Slidell's Old Towne Soda Shop, which recently reopened after being flooded by Katrina

Criminals is stupid

From wwl.com:


Police say a former employee of a Slidell seafood business apparently didn't think his cunning plan all the way through. (Scroll down to view video of the bucket-clad burglar.)

Investigators say 23-year--old Richard Boudreaux- former employee who planned on going on a "burglary spree" to get some quick cash.

Slidell PD Detective Daniel Seuzeneau says Boudreaux is a former employee of Kenney’s Seafood, and arrived at the business "dressed in all camouflage, wore gloves to prevent leaving fingerprints, and packed burglary tools."

Police say everything was going as planned in the caper...until Boudreaux realized he forgot his mask to cover his identity.

Detective Seuzeneau describes what happened next: "Remembering that his former place of employment had surveillance cameras, Boudreaux improvised and found a bucket to put over his head as he scoured the business, looking for money; however, the surveillance cameras caught a glimpse of his face which ultimately led to police identifying Boudreaux as the burglar."

Detectives say Boudreaux was able to get away with money from the cash register at Kenny's, then went to a nearby pawnshop and tried to burglarize that business as well.

After he could not gain entry into the closed Pawn shop, Boudreaux took his loot from the seafood business and went home, according to police.

I have been remiss on keeping up with my Scuzzbucket of the Week, so I'm trying for - maybe - a Scuzzbucket of the Month.

Shame on you, Congress

Despite pleas for voting on Sandy Relief legislation, the U.S. House adjourns.


To those "representatives" of their country, shame on you. Why would you not want to help the victims of the massive storm Sandy? Were you that much in a hurry to go home? Well, next election I hope you do go home for good.

Here is a list of those who opted not to vote on Sandy relief. May they rot in hell

Hey! The time is NOW

While doing dishes tonight, I reflected on the days news. And became royally PISSED OFF.

HEY,Washington DC!!! THE TIME IS NOW. Y'all have been fucking around with this fiscal cliff bullshit and other bills that pisses me off.

It's time for ELECTED AMERICANS to do their jobs.

It's time for AMERICANS to flood the with messagesto do the right thing - which is just the opposite of where their allegiances are now.

What's sad is that the people you voted for made false promises to get your votes and then joined the "good old boys club" which locked them into votes that were against their initial heartfelt beliefs. It's sickening.

So we won't go over the "FISCAL CLIFF". These SOB's will just delay the vote for another group to vote on. Talk about limp dicks. Funny, when I think of limp dicks, all I see are John Bay-nor's and Mich McConnell's faces.

How do these people think they earn their paychecks?
