Pulse: Bamboo Laptop Powered By AsusTek

ok. despite the reason that this laptop has a bamboo casing because it's jumping on the Green/renewable resources/eco-friendly gimmick bandwagon, and my supreme loathing for this latest marketing fad and gimmickry, my love for bamboo supercedes it and i love this.

Debuted in Taiwan last year, i just may keep an eye out for it in 09 and get a job so i can get one of these.

....or do it johnny dangerously style and put bamboo contact paper on my macbook.

gah, i have sooooo many halloween pics to post! i saw great costumes and i got blindsided with shooting a nike commercial for Chris Paul's new jordans, and election night, and my RAM-less laptop takes a realllllly long time to process the pics.

but i have them! i will post them!!!
i'm so almost done.

ps.
OBAMA is PIMP

NEW ORLEANS - Fred Radtke, the infamous scourge of graffiti also known as the Gray Ghost, ran into a brick wall Wednesday while painting over one.

While John Hartsock, co-owner of the Hi-Ho Lounge, was driving home at approximately 3 p.m. he noticed Radtke and several workers painting over a well-known mural on the side of the Southern Waterproofing building, 2930 Burgundy St.

Hartsock asked one of the owners of Southern waterproofing, Michelle Gallodoro, if she had given Radtke permission to paint over the mural.

Not only had Gallodoro not given Radtke permission to paint over the mural, she said she had told him on several occasions and written him letters demanding that he stop painting over the piece.

So Gallodoro called 911 and the National Guard arrived and chased Radtke off. It is not known whether Radtke will be issued a citation by the New Orleans Police Department but Gallodoro will press charges.

“The neighborhood people are really upset he’s been doing this,” she said. “We don’t want him here anymore. He is making everything worse.”

Gallodoro allowed neighborhood artists to paint the mural on her building so long as it wasn’t offensive or gang-related. A week after they first completed the mural, Radtke painted over it, she said. So Gallodoro told Radtke that he had no right to come on her private property and paint over something she approved.

Radtke left, the artists repainted, and a week later the Gray Ghost was back splashing gray paint over Gallodoro’s property, she said.

“It’s been going on and on like this. No matter what we say he doesn’t listen. This guy is running around throwing paint on private property, and no one is doing anything to stop him. Everyone knows that he defaces private property without permission and yet he’s never fined or jailed or anything.”

So this post is dedicated to Dr. ER, my awesome buddy in chicago. He gave me an idea to blog about food in NOLA, and this is one huge po-boy pigout porn post dedicated to him. Enjoy, Andy honey!

Po-Boys are the reason i do not eat regular cold sammiches. i mean, why make a sammich out of cold cuts when you can have fried shrimp, ersters (oysters), catfish, or roast beef dripping with gravy, hot sausages, alligator sausage or even, or even french fries with debris gravy? (debris gravy: the roast beef gravy with bits and pieces of the roast beefy goodness) come on now.

I live right by Domilise's Po-boy shop uptown, which was featured on Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations show and the shit is GOOD. And my girl lives by Parkway, which has some damn good po-boys also. They are quite known for their roast beef po-boys.

We ordered a fried catfish and a fried erster po-boy with a side of debris fries. I guarantee you will never see anyone eat with as much glee as we do:
