More business dinner

Just a tremendous bunch of guys...

Kickoff

"Simple Man"

Gano on juke in Eugene. Started with this one to get me in the zone before our meeting

Hell Has Frozen Over

As might be expected given the Saints winning the Super Bowl, Hell appears to have frozen over. Several Mardi Gras parades were canceled due to snow & sleet in New Orleans. Also, Gano (who eschews all sport) was seen not only watching televised sport, but actively cheering & wearing sports attire. Chilling.

Gearing up...

One for the Spotted Cat

According to a NY Times.com blog entry today, one of our favorite New Orleans bars is no longer... A tragedy as the Spotted Cat played host to some of our favorite moments ("I _____ love you guys! No, it's true! I _____ love them and I should tell them!" my monkey yelled at the New Orleans Jazz Vipers and then at the entire crowd, instantly winning the entire room over... After a few purple voodoos at Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop. Gano emotionally enjoying his request of the Vipers to play "Sleepytime Down South.")

We have seen the Vipers countless times, saw Glen David Andrews join them for one of my all-time favorite versions of St. James Infirmary ("When I die, put my cell phone on vibrate... So my ex-wife thinks I'm still alive.") and even danced alongside Laurence Fishburne there this year.

Gano Wounds Arm(s)

Got an email from Gano entitled "Memorial Day my ass..." with this photo attached. Seems he has a hairline fracture near his left elbow and mangled / sprained / pulled the muscles in his right forearm by going over the handlebars of his bike. And is in a constant amount of significant pain.

Sadly, this is not up for Tommy consideration as he wounded himself trying not to crash in to Chloe. While mountain biking. Unfortunately, far too noble a cause to be considered. (not to mention that it was during exercise.)

But keep on manglin'!

Prosperity Candle

Gano lit a prosperity candle for a meeting I had today. Went really well but, unfortunately, not a check. That being said, I really liked the guy I met and think there is a ton of long-term potential.

The Gang

The Ragin' Cajun, The Wyfe, myself & Herr Schulz at The Canyons Resort in Utah. A tremendous trip.

Hollywood

Decided to cut our losses here in LA. So are headed to some Lyras-recommended bars...

Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker's

A great bar w/ 40 antique motorcycles, Tiffany lamps & General George Custer memorabilia.

The Stinking Rose

Lunch at a famous garlic restaurant. "We season our garlic with food."

Gano at the Buena Vista

A Seafood Lunch

Carpe Noctem

Indeed. The undead sleep during the day. In the shade.

Think Different

Gano sniffs trash outside of an exquisite Apple store

And Then... Late Night.

No words can adequately describe the sight of a fire-breathing Cajun:
