  • Breaking News!

    Something remarkable happened at the Boudreaux household last night. It was a most extraordinary event. Grab those notepads, pull out those pens, this is breaking news, my friends. Toby Joe not only cooked a most excellent fish meal for me, but he ate it too. That’s right, vegan boy Toby Joe ate fish. And the…

  • Youth of Today.

    So here’s what I’m thinking, the French, all along, should have been sending their youth to fight wars for them. Apparently, those 13 – 15 year olds really DO want to fight. Just think of the recruiting opportunities. Hey, kids, you wanna go to Iraq? You can kick the shit out of some American troops…

  • What Do You Say, We Give the Term Pro-Life New Meaning.

    Before I start this post, I need everyone to know that while I am pro-choice, I’m not pro-baby-killer. I like babies. They’re a little funny looking being bald and all, but I like them. The tornado that recently swept through the Midwest killing at least 21 people was a tragedy. Nature hasn’t been very kind…

  • Gerry’s Feet

    Another great photo from Toby Joe. (Actually, I think I like it because it doesn’t actually show the ocean. Good stuff.) Side note: I wish those two wouldn’t post over-top of one another all the time. As it stands, pictures are sometimes up for a very short amount of time (sometimes, it seems like only…

  • My, Spoon is Too Big

    Last night, Toby Joe, Missy, Gerry and I went to the Warsaw to see Mary Timony, American Music Club and Spoon. For an excellent recap of a recap of The Live Music show click here. Toby Joe almost got into a fight with the entire O.C. Fan club. The two girls in front of us…

  • Drunk Drivers and Crackheads, I Will Cut You.

    On Saturday, Toby Joe and I left the house to get some grocery shopping in. I, of course, had to wash the car because she looks much sexier when she’s cleaned. We were driving down McGuiness Boulevard when Toby Joe noticed something. “It seems that some crackhead may have broken off our antenna.” “WHAT?! YOU’RE…

  • Don’t Tell Me Why. I Love It Anyway.

    This is, by far, the best video of all time. Holy sweet jesus, I am crying from laughter. It’s brilliant. And I can’t be sure, but I think they just made me like the song. (Thanks, Gina, for the link.)

  • Hello, New Lovely.

    Last night, I visited the guitar shop on 1st Avenue and 10th street to get some strings for my hand-me-down acoustic. I left with a new guitar. My fingertips are killing me.

  • Booze. UH! What is it good for? Apparently, Absolutely Nothing. Say it Again.

    My friend called me yesterday to discuss his doctor’s appointment. He hadn’t been in a while and his regular doctor was replaced by another gentleman. But he decided it was time for a check-up nevertheless. They talked about the normal stuff. He was asked about smoking, his family’s medical history, eating habits, etc. How much…

  • The Mountain Goats: Take 3

    These two mountain goats songs need a little work. But I don’t have time to fiddle with Sound Studio today. The first one is an oldie but a goodie. And I love the way he sings/says “Shut Up.” The second one is quiet (and you can hear a group of nimrods to our right talking…
