Pope-a-Lope

About Me

Quite possibly the closest thing to a look into the mind of ol' Pope-a-Lope.....in music video form
**Courtesy of Tab-ioca, through Jim, who she swears we'd get along like two peas in a ipod mini** (Update: She was right. There's ashes of a Christmas tree somewhere to prove it)
Came across this poem in someone's bulletin. Figured I'd share it with you fine folks:
I love New Orleans
give me a king cake baby
give me a beignet kiss
give me a french quarter morning that looks like this
give me the endymion krewe
give me the times-picayune
give me a drunk and lazy crawfish boil in muggy sticky june
give me a six pack of dixie
give me some assorted abita beers
give me a city where it only snows once every 10 years
give me a green neutral ground
give me a mardi gras ball
give me a medium rare burger at my grand old Port of Call
give me a glittery drag show
give me the streetcar line
give the House of the Rising Sun
give me a Tchoupitoulas sign
give me a shrimp and oyster poboy
give me lovebug season in May
give me my New Orleans-
I will definitely stay.

People who personify New Orleans:
Phyllis from When the Levees Broke
Gave the world a shot of pure New Orleanian emotion, no chaser (Update: Mom X-rayed Phyllis; she's finalizing a book, be on the look out for it)

Dr. John
Iconic figure in New Orleans music and one truly original personality

Jim Henderson
Play-by-play man for the Saints, voice of the Saints fans, and a severly under-appreciated journalist

Random Thoughts

Why does everyone, even the most uninteresting of people, think they're interesting? Is anyone else freaked out by the vein poking out of that blonde's forehead from the match.com advertisment? Black ...

The pan, the pan, the pan is on fire.......

Why does everyone insist on leaving the stove on when I'm the only one in the house?? Once again, woke up to a house full of smoke. Different house, different culprit. Harahan & JP's fire departme...

So I finally did it....

Yeah, so I did it..... Finally have started what will become a "real" page. Feel as if this is a good way to express whatever artistic expression there is inside. No other reason. Everyone who's a "f...
