This afternoon the Completely Mystick Krewe of Chartreuse will be seen staggering through the French Quarter in order to participate in the opening day of Tales of the Cocktail. If you see them abase yourself to the reigning Dark Lord.
That is all.

A proposed marching hymn for the incipient dawning of the Benign and Lewd Order of the Garrulous (B.L.O.G), with all due apologes to Fats Domino!
It’s time I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
I’m going to need to hold my nose
Around those damned politicos
When I write about New Orleans
I’ve got my purple pills
Doctor says they’ll sure cure my ills
I’m stayin’ here today
Yes, I hope we find our way
Yes, I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
You know its very rarely sunny
And the State has all the money
No use for you to cry
I’ll see you bye and bye
Cause I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
I need to keep on typin’
Because my home is still a ailin’
New Orleans is my home
That’s true no matter where I roam’
I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
FADE:
I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans
I’m bloggin’ ’bout New Orleans

A Huge thanks to Dangerblonde for posting this data. Full documentation of the relveant ordinances can be found at the full artice (linked below). Once again our local Metrobloggers throw out something of immediate use.
Metroblogging New Orleans: illegal signs - trash them
I got an e-mail from Becky Zaheri of Katrina Krewe and it reminded me that it is illegal for people to put signs on the neutral ground or on utility poles except in very specific circumstances. Not only that, but it is perfectly legal for any citizen to remove these signs and properly dispose of them. I’ve quoted the relevant city ordinances below. So, feel free to remove any illegal signs from your neighborhood and if anyone complains tell them to look up Section 66-284 of the Municipal Code.
