Aw, my old neighborhood. I will have to do some nostalgic walking around in the vicinity.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

I love the Elysian Fields Inn It's a little more expensive, but really terrific. It's right off of the highway and the airport shuttle stops right in front. It's a 10 minute walk to Marigny, and a 15 minute walk to the Quarter.

I am certainly partial to people staying Uptown, because that's where I am and the side of town where I think the better restaurants and bars are. The St. Charles streetcar is just up one block from the inns on Prytania.
Uptown forever! Downtown never! (j/k) (kind of.)

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
It's slightly amazing to me that the Uptown attitude is not just native, but is transferred to the transplants.

Ahahahaha! It's more anti-FQ, really, than anti-rest of downtown.
It's all about the logistics of navigating the city and the fact that lots of residents (regardless of length of life here) think the FQ is not a fun place to hang out, so it becomes a natural barrier.

Oh, sure. Though I do miss O'Flaherty's pub, which was on Toulouse near Decatur, and was an awesome place to hear live Irish music.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Gary and I went to O'Flaherty's to see Beth Patterson one time we were in New Orleans.

Yep, that's where I saw her the first time.

O'Flaherty's isn't there anymore? Although my pub was the Kerry.

No, Katrina killed off O'Flaherty's, though I think they'd had some challenges before that.
