Still trying to find a good paczek.

Oh no you did-n’t, Max! Neumanns has an AWFUL Mardi Gras planned. No one better go there. Esp. if you know what’s good for you and you don’t want to get into a knife fight over turf rights, yo.

My dad gave me a Swiss Army Knife for Christmas, and I’m not afraid to use it.

Oh goodie, another excuse to buy more French Rabbit from Hum’s!

i will flash my alluring man boobs to whomever has sparkly plastic beads, but only if they are made in china with prison labor.

Oh, crap! You mean I can’t eat meat tomorrow (Wednesday)? Guess I’ll pack a cheese sandwich for lunch, unless our cafeteria has cheese or veggie pizza. Unlike Minnesota, there aren’t enough Catholics here in the South for the cafeterias to cater to Lenten restrictions.

I come up to Mpls mid-March each year, and last year had a grilled cheese at Pracna…any good suggestions for non-meat eating in Wayne’s World area? Gotta plan ahead for this year…I suppose Punch (sorry, Wayne) or Pizza Nea…

Max, I have to try that Pimm’s Cup with lemonade and 7Up…sounds yummy. And I loved that rotating bar at the Monteleone…my wife would like to stay there if we ever go back to New Orleans, but I’m guessing it’ll be a pretty penny.

It is. It’s crazy expensive.

“i will flash my alluring man boobs to whomever has sparkly plastic beads, but only if they are made in china with prison labor.“

Ever since several unflattering pictures of a portly and shirtless Mao made it out into the West, chinese prison labor can no longer be used to make man-boobs. It was just too touchy for a while there, what with all the wall posters decrying the hegomonistic man-boob-seller vultures. Taiwan quickly picked up the slack, fortunately, so there never was any serious shortage.

.

Here’s everything you need know.

Turf Club. A midweek break for some music and Guinni. esses. mmm… Guinni…

SpellsGood, try Gardens of Salonica.

And outside of Wayne’s World, try Evergreen Chinese Restaurant on Nicollet and 24th. Definitely worth the trek. While you’re down that way, pick up some Vietnamese mock duck sandwiches to go from the Jasmine Deli. Cheap and delicious.

Yum! That sounds good!!!!

If it doesn’t have Spock it ain’t Star Trek.

If it ain’t in New Orleans, it ain’t Mardi Gras.

And that’s the name of that tune.

Pfft.

I’m going to have to insist on Pizza Nea, because:
1) They’re not the devil
2) The pizza is better
3) Actual table service!

There’s something nice about not going through a lunch line for you semi-fine dining.

Mardi Gras?

Riiiiiight.

A non-event, for drunks.

Don’t you have a toilet you can piss into?

Mardi Gras is a Catholic holiday, and, in New Orleans, mostly a family holiday. But, you know, don’t worry about whether you know anything before you formulate an opinion. After all, ignorant opinions are just as valid as informed opinions.

Really?

Nice ‘family’ holiday ya got there, sparbs.

It’s a drunken boob fest.

Public exposure is illegal in New Orleans and, on Mardi Gras, only really happens on Bourbon Street, which is almost exclusively tourists.

Again, you might try actually learning about something before you comment on it.

Aw, c’mon, Max…it’s fun to watch bud jr. make himself look like an idiot, as opposed to everyone else making him look like an idiot.

It’s a non-event, for Mnspeak.

Mardi Gras is a garish, pus filled boob fest for drunken idiots, and takes place in the worst city in America, which we, the thinking public, must be fed reminders of EVERY single year at this time.

It is a knee jerk media “event” of the worst kind.

Yep, I’m an idiot!

Does anyone else find it odd that the resident pervert (or at least the poster of more perverted comments than anyone), namely bud jr, has a problem with the depravity of Mardi Gras? I bet if Jeanette Trompeter (sp?) was there lifting her top, bud jr would explode in delight.

(Resisting urge to point out hypocrisy of right-wing nutjobs….)

Have a drink, bud jr…or is coke off a hooker’s ass more your speed?

yeah, man, nothing like a major historic port city on the outlet of most important river in the country! What a stupid pointless city!

Also, “pus filled boob?” Are they all pregnant or something? I’m pretty sure at least some of them are filled with other substances like silicon and saline, too.

Filth:

He’s jes’ jealous.

*explodes in delight*

I have two king cakes I’m supposed to dig into before Fat Tuesday, but that “pus-filled boobs” thing is seriously weakening my appetite.

(Bud, it’s the Catholics’ pre-let’s-starve-ourselves-for-Lent party all over the world. Think “Carnival” in Rio. Same thing. Yeah, the popularized media expression of it is a soddenly-drunken kegger with beads, but there’s more to it.)

.

I fail to understand how my respectful appreciation of some local newsbunnies is to be categorized as ‘perverse’.

bobby, do those king cakes have that god awful purple and green icing all over them?

Yechh…..don’t swallow the plastic jesus!

More family fun at this great “holiday”:

That’s New Orleans. It made the news because it was ONLY two last night.

.

“NEWSBUNNIES”, bud jr.?!?! Did you SERIOUSLY call them “newsbunnies” AND use “respectful appreciation” of them in the same sentence?

yep

Cue the Skynyrd, bud jr’s gettin’ ready to explode with delight!

I’m guessing swallowing the plastic Jesus would be considered blasphemy, bud jr? Right-wing crank.
