Let's call it what it really is.



OK -- So I (we) are going back to New Orleans. Third trip, first Jazz Fest. Nom de plume of Uptown Rulah. Looking forward to the food and the music and the city and the whole package. We did some work in the Ninth Ward and I would love to pass by and see those folks. Going to head over to Algiers, again -- this time maybe walk around a bit. We took a jitney and saw Mardi Gras World as well as William S. Burrough's house (historical plaque and all!). Never enough time to do the deal but some small part of me wishes I had all of my time down there. "You either get it or you don't" says my intrepid tour guide and music maven. So -- we got it, hands down.
