Spring Is In The Air
In an unusual turn of events New Orleans is experiencing a season, namely Spring. The cool and pleasant air is indicative of neither the HEAT or the COLD WET that share the year. This must be Spring then, that folk tale of the northlands. Would the foliage around us explode in reds and oranges soon? Not bloody likely, but a nice fancy.
In honor of this unaccustomed period of mild and clement weather I am endeavoring to adopt the theme of growth. A new job, new writing contracts, my looming matrimony, several new websites, and at least forty things that I can’t put my finger on just now. All growth oriented. Springtime in the subtropics. I’m psyched! Humid City will grow and aspire to be, “…a carnival barker’s megaphone aimed at a complacent citizenry.”
With that in mind I am currently working on a weekly schedule of offerings for this space, the Recipe on Wed. will almost certainly continue. In the meantime a purely subjective sampling of what I think is good around town will be seen. (Such as the notices below) Also, in the spirit of The Silver Machine, I am inviting other voices to join me here. Hopefully we will have a nice round of regular features in the near future. Anyone interested in getting involved please email me

Seven Devils is the shop one goes to when looking for something out of the ordinary. It is a shop
where creative freedom is honored, and where differences are respected. At Seven Devils, you will find independent films, unsigned music, self-published books, gallery less artwork, exotic
instruments, eclectic gifts and anything the imaginative side of your brain desires. Eric Laws, a
local composer/producer, has co-operated (alongside Chrystal Skye Jordan) Second.Circle
Productions, a multimedia production facility, for ten years. Eric has decided to open up Seven
Devils to compliment his creative endeavors with sister, Laura Laws, a writer, and their artistic
parents.
Located on 1111 Saint Mary Street on the corner of Magazine, Seven Devils: Imagination Parlor and Gift Shop resides in the historic section of the Lower Garden District. The owners respect and appreciate the history of New Orleans, and plan to fashion the shop in resemblance to a seasoned parlor one might have visited in the majestic quarters of New Orleans antiquity.
