@nolahistoryguy.com so, not being obsessive/compulsive or anything 😉, went and looked at my list of BONO vets from Louisiana in the War of 1812 by Powell Casey. In the list of officers of the U.S. 44th Infantry (regular American army), there’s a 2nd Lt named Latour Allard who resided in La.

Happy Irma Thomas' birthday. Not a national holiday. YET.

If you want the light to magically turn green, try reaching for your phone.

Better yet, TCU shelled out a lot of NIL $ to be the starters on the #rexcomus team tonight. 😉

So, I had to go run around town since 7pm. I come back and our small town is HOT! 🤪 #nolasky #rexcomus

I’m not going to be able to play #rexcomus live tonight, so here’s the Annual shoutout to Trumpet player Todd! Member of @nocbmusic.bsky.social ! 😉

New Orleans nods its head.

The glory of riding in one of these babies to take inventory at stores long gone along the Gulf Coast. Not everyone had that privilege 😉

Happy Mardi Gras everyone! Hope everyone has a wonderful time!

Grabbed this wonderful Humble Bundle as my Valentine's Day gift to myself. So many of these books were already on my TBR, and AUTOMATIC NOODLE is one of my top reads of 2025; I'm thrilled to build my collection of @charliejane.bsky.social & @annaleen.bsky.social books and support great trans orgs.

Writing Fall From Glory was a very pleasurable experience.

Hi hello good evening!! Year 15 of living the dream✨

What's truly obscene about the Washington Post situation is that it's owned by a billionaire, one who could easily cover the paper's losses and help it grow. But no, Jeff is in turbo charged divorced dad mode, buying super yachts and trying to put Lauren into the next James Bond movie. Pathetic.

Greatest QB of all-time.

A lesson for everyone. I stopped playing clarinet for years. Life, work, etc. always got in the way. 23 years ago, my wife pushed me to join @nocbmusic.bsky.social. As Levi says much better than I, it changed my life in so many ways. Do what you wanna do, as we say in this small town.

Damn, I’m old. 😉

The Pelicans lack of winning is directly correlated with the loss of locker favorites and dawgs such as JV, Larry Nance, Dyson Daniels, Naji Marshall, and now Jose Alvarado. Not only were they good basketball players and people, they showed up every night and outworked everyone.

ICYMI this is an incredible bargain — everything @annaleen.bsky.social and I have written for Tor, for $18 plus whatever you can spare. And it benefits a wonderful organization that supports Black trans people. If you wanna discover our work and do some good, here's your chance!

Get great books and support a good cause, with no sneaky DRM!

So I picked this up this afternoon at the wonderful Louis Armstrong Museum in Corona. 1950; Standard Oil sponsors a series of records for classrooms demonstrating American regional music. They get Pops and a couple of his All-Stars, Hines and Teagarden, who lived up to the name and then some, in

New Orleanians! Americans! Today is the day! 211 years ago, a mishmashed group of men snatched victory from the jaws of defeat! New Orleans could be drinking tea and speaking better English today, if the British had their way. 😉

From Dave Bennett and better days at the Battle of New Orleans, believe the year is 2013.

My goals for 2026 are simple. I shall be: 1. Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Dawn! 2. Treacherous as the Sea! 3. Stronger than the foundations of the earth! 4. All shall love the new me, and despair!

I still can’t believe Dennis Allen apologized to the Falcons

I wonder how CBS News would cover these stories from the "We love America and make no apologies for saying so" point of view
