Move to Florida, it's less complicated! :-)

Actually I was in Florida in 2006 , New Orleans in 2007 (along with Mexico & then Jamaica <>sigh<>)
Except for 1 resturant in a small Greek community outside Tampa , the food I had In Louisianna was by far better...as far as my taste buds were concerned.
Being from the East Coast of Canada we have access to some of the best seafood in the world.The seafood I had there (in N.O.) was really good quality & delicious.

The Expulsion of the Acadian's in 1755 was done mostly in the Port Royal area in and around Annapolis Valley Nova Scotia.
THese people were supposedly removed when the British took control from the French.
Supposedly if you wouldn't sign alliegence to the King of England you were deported , they took most of them to Louisiana because it belonged to the French at that time.
But I've seen records, read in our local History class, where the farms in that area were well developed & the British wanted these farmlands for themselves & these people were forcibly removed (they had been farming, building dykes etc. in that area since the 1630's) first settlement was around 1600, 1610 I can't remember the exact date, but the Summer of 1755 when they were expelled & forcibly removed there's lots of local references to that today.

There's museums & an Evangeline trail in that area , commemerating their suffering , many eventually came back. But obviously a lot of them stayed down where you are.

I read Walden. That's kind of a local equivialant.

I went to Books-A-Million today to see about buying my first dirty magazine. I was after Playboy, because I had heard that despite having nude women in it, they were usually done as tastefully as possible...

I walked out with January/February issue of "The Girls of Penthouse," the first collection of Chugworth Academy (which I was not at all expecting to see up there, so I was tickled), and a paperback edition of George Carlin's "Brain Droppings."

Just once I'd like to see a cashier's head explode. I knew I should have gotten Soldier of Fortune while I was at it... damn. Maybe I should have asked them where they kept their Que'rans.

It turns out that Polish beer gets you more battered than any English beer.

To be honest, I'm not fucking suprised.

I wish I had a writing gig at Playboy-- but, I don't have anything to write about, cause I'm sad like that--
They do have really good writing material (which goes unnoticed, but still...)

I still have a playboy my friend gave me as a present, and it's of Alison Eastwood, Clint Eastwood's daughter.

I don't know why I have it still--
A token of an old friend who I used to love a lot. Until... he got "too cool"--

Yes, the pictures in playboy verge in artistic. In a way they don't even appaear "dirty"

They really do. But the cartoon blurbs suck. They're all just little sketches with people saying vaugly sexual things. And the party jokes are just not jokes

Something I've noticed is that in their celebrity sets they don't often show, as a dj I listen to who once pontifocated on this issue said, "front" This wasen't true in the latest issues adriean currey pictoral. The pictures all looked like high class fashion photos only with less clothes. I think that this comes mainly from the fact she's an established model.

Well that was a big let down. I was expecting something truly glorious upon opening the bag for that magazine... nothing but a bunch of lesbian porn stars licking and fingering each other. I paid 6.99 for that? What a rip.

What does Polish beer have in it that English doesn't?

I honestly don't know. Not being a smart ass or anythinng

Most English beer hovers around the 4% mark......the main Polish beer (Zywiec) is 5.6%. When I was in Poland this summer I drank a fair bit of it, but since then I had come to doubt my memory, until I saw it again today - yup, it really is that strong.

You have the internet and you PAID for teh pr0n?

And the articles in Playboy are very hit and miss. The cartoons are just racist/tasteless, but usually funnier than the party jokes.

The only place that sold skin mags around here was the local gas station, and they closed down when the state widened the highway it sat on. It was a sad day for . . . everyone.

I never understood the theory behind airbrushing the models in Playboy. Well, I guess I can comprehend it, but it justs seems contradictory to the air of professional style they seem to want to exude.

It's like, "Yea hey great tits. Wait. Those aren't nipples."

Or something.

Now I feel like a pervert.

Thanks Proteas.

There's no way a woman can go on playboy and looking like the way they do in the end result--
I mean... seriously? No freckles? No stretch-marks? Birthmarks? Even tone skin (face skin that matches with the rest of the body...)

Most of them don't even have the long legs that we see--

Look, it's like this.
If you had no other choice, which would you see?
A pic of Joanie Laurer airbrushed on Playboy draped in pearl and gold necklaces ?
Or JL au natural in her sex tape "1 Night in Chyna"? (complete with fully formed clitoris.)

(Google... i aint posting them.)

Yeah--
I thought so.

Have you read Longfellow's Evangeline? :-)
We have an Evangeline Parish as well.

;
IT was required in History, I think it was grade 8 or 9 .
They have a statue of Evangeline in Grand Pre It's about 45 minutes away from my house.
What is surprising is how many people don't realise she never lived but was only a character in Longfellows story.

I didn't know that (its always a good day when you learn something new)
SHould have spent more time on checking out the relationship of our Acadians & yours when I was there.... but... but , it was Mardi Gras & I was like 3 blocks away from Bourbon St. & there was parades & parties, & tities & beads & parties & well getting the part of the brain to want to check out history as opposed to 'EVERYTHING ELSE' that was going on -wuz tough-
<I fail....sorry>

I was there for 8 days, I think you need several visits of at least that long just to get a good glimpse of the place. I did tour around the French Quarter a couple of times. I took the trolley up Canal to a big graveyard (I've almost got all my funeral plans finalized) & I wanted to check out the above ground system of crypts you use.
Went on a riverboat cruise with a good meal & booze, but most evenings (fuck why lie) every evening found me somewhere on Bourbon or one of the side streets checking out the music, & of course the parties.

I wear eye makeup fairly frequently, especially if I'm wearing contacts that day and not glasses, but it takes me like five minutes. If I'm going somewhere formal and do the whole foundation-powder-shadow-blush-lipstick thing, that might be half an hour. I don't understand why these "beautiful" women require so much work. I may be merely "pretty," but at least it's natural.

As someone who works back stage, or on movie sets I see these 'beautiful people' coming from home & headed to the Hair/ Make up trailers where professionals take sometimes hours to get everything just so. Then they follow their 'person' all day & do what is called 'touches' just before the camers rolls.
Trust me, a down & out crack whore can go into one of those trailers & come out 'made up ' to a cover girl standard.
Natural & pretty is in my opinion way better than plastic & phoney .
They do everything including teeth whitening, evening, cover pimples, scars blemishes .
Hell often camera angles are done just to hide things like over size noses etc.
Stay real Skunky, unless of course your going on camera, you might as well experience what a full treatment would do for you in that situation..

I don't think this is something guys can really comprehend. I mean if we want to look nice we'll dress well and brush our hair, that's about it. Beyond that the only consern with hair is keeping it, which,turning things back, is something a lot of women don't seem to understand.

In other news being sick SUCKS.

Ok. What did I miss?

When you mention "taking care" are you also including using shampoo, aconditioners and creams?
I do that everyday, but the combs... are my sworn enemies. Eventually they end up burned >:)
I just hate them. I can't explain why, but i do.

You've got a flu? If so, drink a mixed infusion of white willow, fennel, blessed thistle, field scabious, violet and peppermint flowers, and corn stigma. It'll do you good.
Tastes a little bitter but really makes you feel better.

Fuck that. I havn't used a comb / brush in probably 6 years. =)

I like the whole "unkempt" look.

Which reminds me. A friend of mine told me I looked like Pete Wentz the other day. I didn't know whether to punch her in the face or bring her to an eye doctor. =)

Quite strange if you ask me. Are you sure she wasn't kidding?

Well, first of all, you have never seen a picture of me.

And two, most girls think he is hot, so I suppose I could take it as a compliment, though I choose not to since Fall Out Boy is the worst thing to happen to music in over a decade.

And I think she was serious. =S

celebs with no makeup--

Although-- Halle Berry's no make up pic is still beautiful, so I don't know why she's there...

Jennifer Garner is also still really cute.

I have a few friends and acquaintances who are professional photographers and have asked me to sit for them, offered to have me "done up" and professionally posed/lit/etc. I'm just not comfortable having my picture taken, that's all. I'm okay when it's in a costume, or something like that, but for the most part I'd really rather not.

Admittedly, the pictures of me that turn out really turn out, but it doesn't make up for the 75% or so that suck.

I like this accidental profile shot of me in my Oracle costume. I don't even mind how prominent my nose is!

Agreed.

You may be my dream girl. =)
