As strange as it sounds to me, Linda and I are celebrating our tenth wedding anno, 6 weeks from today in New Orleans...after weeks of research we have picked Peristyle for the dinner but are looking as much or more forward to Uglesich's for lunch...Jim Louis we hope to see you for a meal or drinks while we are there, and are open to any food/music/etc news you may wish to share.....
I just checked my old e.mail address and found the same e.mail (to the original circle of five friends and family he started out with) message from Jim Louis about "seeing you next year", so I think he's pissed off at the world not just us or not pissed off at all. But I'm already missing him and Rachael. Good to see Mark kicking in again and Steve from afar. Who's anonymous ?
Speaking of Birds…
Someone (remember, the pop up posting boxes on Jim & my pages don't identify the poster) mentioned Killer Swans as a vaguely remembered "ironic" band name. All I could find was a song with that title by Flying Saucer Moonship, on this buggy site. As far as irony goes, a lot of what passes for irony these days is just static experienced by people whose reality receivers are a bit out of tune. Swans may be pretty, but they are large and powerful, as well as territorial and protective. People know that geese and ostriches can be aggressive, but a graceful white swan? Well, remember that birds are descended from dinosaurs. At least that's currently the most popular theory, which just received a boost from this amazing development. Scientists believe they have found the first fossilized dinosaur heart, and it appears to be much like a bird's, which adds to the evidence for endothermic (warm-blooded) dinosaurs.
And while we're on the subject, I saw the Louisiana Waterthrush yesterday. Did Jim Louis(iana) have anything to do with that?

OK, I've created a few new sections here on the inside. I wrote a little note in SystemNews about this. Basically I'm just experimenting. I copied Bill's piece from yesterday into its own section (creatively named "bill") and I'm hoping that he keeps posting random interesting bits there. We are still working on a more focused external page for him, but you'll see that when we get something up.
I've had the pleasure recently (thanks to Bill) of communicating with another Jim - Jim Louis. He is a sort of pioneer in this medium that we are all experimenting with here. Since May of '97 he has been publishing via email a series of short pieces describing his life in Louisianna, under the title: e.mail from NOLA. The publishing has been to a very circumscribed audience, and we're looking in to how we can expand that. There are some issues with the extreme verite (names, events, ect.) of these pieces, so for the time being we are picking up this really great series, but only on the "inside" of the site here. For now, guests won't see it. Jim will make further decisions down the road. In any case, I have the good fortune to have received a (huge) hard copy of the entire 3 year run, and this stuff is very good. You can all judge for yourself, of course, as they come in, but this is the sort of personal journalism that I think the web is all about. Very thoughtful stuff. Enjoy.
