Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Hey, Hec spells cemetery the same way I do. I feel all validated and stuff.
Stupid spell checker marks that one on me every damn time.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I had dinner with Dana tonight. It was fun - we tried to fine a place with a semi-authentic Texas experience, so I ended up eating a huge prime rib and a "Texas Margarita". And a big honkin' key lime pie covered with a shitload of whipped cream.
I have pictures, but am on dialup so I'll have to post them Wed. or Thurs.
Oh, and I have to note Dana's niceness, as she paid for my dinner.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The steak might actually have been as big as his head. Or mine. Or someone's head.

Yeah, I was going to post about that at some point - you can buy a ticket at the aquarium that covers admission to the aquarium, the zoo, and a boat trip from one to the other. I don't know if the boat trip is round trip, however. I'll also venture that the zoo will probably be pretty hot. The aquarium, however, is fabulous and indoors.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Well, they do keep the rainforest exhibit at about 99% humidity, so not that different from outside.
Even if the boat is one way, the streetcar line runs right in front of the zoo, and that's a great ride.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think you can buy either one way or roundtrip tickets on the boat (the John Jay Audubon). I've taken it from the zoo to the aquarium and it's a different view of New Orleans than you usually get, it really gives a sense of the working port-ness. Aquarium+boat+zoo+boat is a full day. If you just want a quick ride on the river, the ferry is free to pedestrians and yields some nice views.
I feel I should point out that the Aquarium is where they keep the penguins, and there is a pretty nifty Mississippi River exhibit. Aside from the air conditioning, which is sometimes enough to make me want to go there. The zoo has a pretty good swamp exhibit with albino alligators and shade and concession stands selling gumbo and so forth, as well as the more typical monkeys, etc.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Who among us does not enjoy monkeys?!

The zoo also had a nifty seal show the last time I was there.
