I haven't been up on my correspondence, but I did want to wish all my friends the happiest of holidays. So I thought I would share with you a taste of N'Awlins. Below are some links to videos by a local band of lunatics called "Benny Grunch and The Bunch". They are introduced by a local television celebrity by the name of Frank Davis, who hosts a local news slot termed, "Naturally N'Awlins." I hope you enjoy (and I hope the quality is better for you than for me with my slow-ass computer)...grumble. Anyhoo...Enjoy. And thanks to the most loving group of folks I've never met. Grin. Happy Holidays. http://www.wwltv.com/cgi-bin/bi/video/G2redirect.pl?title=ID=1248701 "Santa & His Reindeer Used to Live Right Here" http://www.wwltv.com/cgi-bin/bi/video/G2redirect.pl?title=ID=1145456 "The Twelve Yats of Christmas" http://www.wwltv.com/cgi-bin/bi/video/G2redirect.pl?title=ID=1248702 "Ain't Dere No More" and the rest is lagniappe-- New Orleans Dictionary-- http://www.crescentcity.com/dictionary.htm *note* The word "Yat" was not found in this particular selection, so I'll fill ya in. A "Yat" is simply a N'Awlins native who boasts the true accent, originating from the Irish Channel--or the "Ninth Ward"--"Da Ninet Wawd") Celebration In The Oaks http://www.neworleansonline.com/neworleans/christmas/celoaks.html Historic Homes Deck The Halls http://www.neworleansonline.com/neworleans/christmas/hishogng.html And once again, "Merry Christmas Dawlin'." |

I loved,"Whatca Gonna Do, Ain't There No More," it was hilarious! I had to load "Real Time Player" to make them work but after than I laughed myself silly. Thanks kiddo, you make ma day. Me thinks the guys at the radio station are very canaille? Thanks for the late night humor you! ![]() |

This even makes a good "day after Christmas" read. Merry Christmas, Karen... You've made me want to come back again, and soon.... |

Since it's about that time again, I thought I'd give this a little boost. And since I never know what I am doing one day to the next, if I'm a bit scarce, I wanted to wish you all the happiest of holidays. ![]() |
