where to buy art.... studio mardiclaw

I have been a staple at surrey's for a long time, and this year I continue my tradition of hanging there. I have also added one other new spot, A Musing bike rentals located at 1818 Magazine Street. You can also find me at the OCH Art Market each month. this location is at zeitgeist, and has been a really relaxing and fun place to hang out. they serve great food, drinks, and more. the month of nov they will be the third weekend, and adding a street party as well. I also am online at fine art america. www.mardiclaw.com www.mardiclaw.net www.skinznbonez.com http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/mardi-claw.html http://www.noomoon.net/index.php?option=com_redshop&view=category&layout=detail&cid=34&Itemid=526 tshirts, gicless, paintings, christmas ornaments and more at the OCH market for the next six months. very excited.

parking issues

now that I've sold my car, I can relish in the fact that I'm not part of the arguement between home owners, renters, and people who like to park their abandoned cars in front of my house. I mean, if your not driving your car? park it on your side lot, at YOUR house, not in front of mine.

this was a HUGE problem after katrina, and now has returned, as they took away parking spaces, so we could have a bike lane to nowhere. great urban planning, whomever decided to screw us... I really don't understand the bike lane. it turns on my street, runs up to the cemetary, and ends.

we didn't need a bike lane, this isn't a busy street, and we certainly didn't need to have parking spaces taken away. I'm sure the next thing coming? will be paying for parking, as I laugh, because I'm now carless.

I do agree with my neighbors. I mean, if your going to leave your car abandoned? put it on your property. the coming and going of random spaces, always has worked fine, until someone new moves into "the orange house", and then dumps their car in front of my house.

I remember one lady who dumped her car, and parked it about a foot and a half out into the street. her car was full of clothing, garbage and more. she didn't live in the orange house, but she had friends there. I got up one morning and decided I'd had enough. I pushed her car with mine, and then she appeared, and finally moved it. she had texas plates.

then there was the guy who dumped his car without an engine in it, in front of my house. Another who dumped a car that they were stripping.

it gets old. show some respect for your neighbors, and don't hog all the spots. put your abandoned vehicle somewhere else.

SURREYS uptown

I have had another surrey's opportunity for the holiday season. The new surrey's opened a while back next to le bon temps rouler. WHAT a great marriage of breakfast food, and bloody mary's while you wait.

I'm pretty partial to surrey's food. I love the shrimp and grits, the banana's fosters french toast, costa rican breakfast, and even the tofu breakfast with its thai twist, a little heat, a lotta bell peppers. ( I'm not fond of mushrooms, so they make it bell peppers for me )

Lita is an awesome chef. she has a few specialties that aren't on the menu, but I've had the pleasure of trying them. I especially loved the butternut squash soup, and the white bean and turkey chili she had over the holiday.

you can sit outside, or in. you can even sit outside with your dog, which many folks do. I really enjoyed the clientele, and the service.

I especially love the new art up. YES, its myself, judy digeorge, rachelle o brien, and one other I can't pronounce, or spell. but either way, you gotta admit, surrey's always has great stuff on their walls.

get up there enjoy lunch, brunch or breakfast, and buy some art. ENJOY!

the case of henry glover vs NOPD

and the officer laughed, as he burned the body of henry glover, a man who just days after hurricane katrina, was brought by his friends to the police station, for medical attention. his friends beaten, and henry taken out in a car to the levee, a bullet to his head, and a flare in the car, burning the evidence. Including, the officer returning to the scene of the crime to steal the skull from the victims body.

I don't think Duress properly explains what happened here. I think RACIST SHIT is a better explanation. COLD blooded murder, in the name of NOPD.

And to think our tax payer money is spent on racist shitheads like the officers who did this.

I know that they needed a break, we all did. but it doesn't give ANYONE the right to murder.

five year anniversary of katrina, with wild man john and flagboy honee

I really want to take the time this year to commemorate the growth we've had since K. I know that the oil spill seems to be overshadowing everything, but I think its important to rejoice in rebuilding, and passing this five year anniversary.

With the Treme ending its first season, seeing friends immortalized on television, knowing that maybe, just maybe, Americans now have a sense of what we're about, or not, just knowing that my hood has changed for the better.

Used to be a drug house, just houses away... now gone. Used to be murders one block up by children, upon children... finally stopped. Seeing the possiblity of a grocery store within a block of my house? Well, progress indeed.

But my point is this... Join me, and The Mardi Gras Indians this August 29th, as we do a mini pub crawl/secondline, into the hi ho lounge... to celebrate our moving forward, and our positive affirmations, that this city has come a long way since that fateful day.
