Re: Popeyes has ruined their onion rings.

I've noticed recently that Popeyes outside New Orleans usually don't even have onion rings anymore. I hoped they have not changed them in town.

Re: Bam Bam Mistries a Case

Well perhaps I was a bit harsh in my initial condemnation of your tactics, if you were being treated that unfairly. Still not sure you shouldn't have dealt with the unfair rulings on appeal, but I can see the decision in the heat of battle. Good luck on that recusal.

Re: I left my wine in the attic

I waded back to my house a week after Katrina. While gathering some clothes my brother peeked in the wine cooler and discovered the opened and re-corked bottle of red wine I'd been drinking the evening before evacuation.

Re: Bam Bam Mistries a Case

You must have really pissed off the judge to get all your plaintiff evidence excluded, assuming there was any argument as to its admissibility. Defendants are usually the ones getting shafted in CDC. But rather than cheat and waste a day of everyone else's time, you should have taken your beating an...

Re: Can We Finally Discuss How Piss Poor The State of Food Criticism in New Orleans i

I agree we need more aggressive restaurant reviews locally. But I do find it ironic that whenever a carpetbagger reviewer from GQ or whereever dares to imply one of our hallowed local culinary institutions is nothing special, our first reaction is to denigrate the reviewer and rip him or her as an o...
