So I'm working down here in New Orleans at the moment. It is quite crazy. I've never really worked in the aftermath of a natural disaster like Katrina or Rita. But this is insane. Stuff is all over the place. I saw a boat on a roof.. cars leaning against houses, ontop of other cars. Even saw an inground pool moved above ground and out of the backyard. Craziness.
But the place doesn't even seem like a city anymore. Staying in a hotel in downtown.. lights are only on for about a mile.. if that. Lots of shops are closed, obviously looted. Some shops which sell junk were fine.. other things were ruined. It is crazy if you ask me. People park where ever they want, people sleep in their cars. So much work to be done and so few places to stay.
Well I have to get back to home sampling.. we might be done in.. shoot.. sometime. But I'll probably be in Illinois eventually again. And maybe I'll see my apartment again sometime.
Later

holy shit, didn't know you were going to new orleans.
so... pictures?
if you're in need of a haircut, kenneth's is open. clearly, haircuts should be what's on your mind at the moment. that and transitively putting money in my pocket.
dave is always thinking about his hairstyle...he's so into trying new styles
does he do mad flips with his styles?
almost forgot: dzoxcj
I'll try to get some pictures tomorrow and post them on up. I hope some of the really crazy stuff is still around.
They are on the cameras at the moment.. I'll try to get some this afternoon and post them tomorrow.
the apartment says hi, it misses you
our apartment doesn't talk, but the neighborhood we live in often says "BANG BANG BANG BANGBANGBANGBANG" and then makes helicopter noises for over an hour!
not only does it talk, it has emotions!
Joey...move back to arkansas, yes please thank you
neighborhood update: no more firefights recently!
verification word update: "qkkupjf" which is the sound that i make when i have had too much coffee and spent too long staring at a very stupid response on a student's midterm.
dave's promised pictures update: NOT FORTHCOMING, DISAPPOINTMENT LOOMS
joey if you'll read dave's response very carefully..you will see that it says he will post pictures *tomorrow*...admittedly this is now over a week old...but seriously, they'll be up tomorrow
Ok, I have pictures.. but need to download them off the camera.. and I think I should be getting a good picture from a railraod guy also. Do we still have to use "hello" for uploading pictures?
Verification Word:
"bnknzbf"
the sound made when blowing one's nose.. and the tissue is too weak to hold in the unsaught of nasal goodness.
I don't think that we HAVE to use Hello, but Hello is the easiest way that I've ever found.
tuelnd = a magical place where elves and faeries do battle with treacherous and miserly wizard-kings!
ok, so it was apparently tVelnd. Now i get "xetsmqf" -- how i spell "petsmart" when drunk?
is it tomorrow yet??
