Scotland Green's acquaintance, Chad Meyer

About Me

I was born in New Orleans many years ago. It has taught me many lessons and exposed my mind to great culture, food, partying, etc. Unfortunately I still live here. But it could be worse. I intend to escape before the next big hurricane wipes us off the map. A place with mountains would be nice. Higher Ground.I have held various meaningless jobs for meaningless companies doing meaningless tasks. I hope to make a living one day either writing comedy, cartooning, or some 3rd career option that also doesn't involve physical labor. Perhaps a combination of the three? Sooner would be better than later but I'm prepared for later.I have been called many names. Some are very nice. You may call me Scot or Scotland. Scottie will not be tolerated.EDIT: I got out before the hurricane wiped us off the map. I feel good about that. I am around moutains now but not for long...a href="HATER!"

I'm heartbroken...

Last night, I was thinking to myself "Gee, I haven't seen my news-crush Rudi Bakhtiar in a while..." She used to be the main reason I flipped to Headline News/CNN. She could have told me the world w...

Did I say Hawaii? Cause I meant Texas, Colorado, and Oregon.

Well, I'm back in the mighty NOLA, kids. I've actually been back since New Years but haven't really felt like writing about it. But now that I'm sick in bed for day number 4 (or is it 5?) ...
