Day March 26, 2005

Bad pun of the day

Official VM girlfriend: Take a right on Camp. I think it turns into Decatur.

Gil: Are you sure? I thought Camp turns into Kitsch! Bwah-ha-hah!

(Thanks. I’ll be here all week.)

Explosive Shells

Made it into Des Allemands, LA last night. Had the pleasant surprise, after checking in at Continental, to find that my seat had been upgraded to first class. I hadn’t flown first class since 1990, so this rocked the house.

The official VM girlfriend was unhappy about having to sit in row 29, squeezed between two fat passengers, but I’m sure she was assuaged by the in-flight movie.

After we got in, her family took us to Drago’s, where I got to experience some famous char-broiled oysters. Her dad said he tried to use their recipe at home, but the grill wouldn’t get as hot as they keep it at the restaurant.

“Also, some of the oyster-shells would explode.”

Off to New Orleans today. It was about 78 degrees with 245% humidity at 8am, but it’s better than ice and snow.
