Hi.
A fun thing to do in NO - the New Orleans Pharmacy Museum. No really, I've heard this is really fun....
We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Our wings are not tired
deb, I'll be splitting my time between the bars and the restaurants, so if you are there with us I'll be joining you in eating myself into a coma.
Hmmm, I'm thinking the leather kilt might not be the best choice for F2F 2005, I wonder if I can get one in a nice linen or something.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

See, if it were the New Orleans Pharmacology Museum, maybe I could convince the department to fund my trip.

OOH!!!
(I sense that you're being sarcastic, but ---ooh!! Old medical stuff!!)
The really funny thing about NO being chosen is I've just recently found out that a bunch of my friends from college are planning a mini-reunion in NO, dates TBD. So I may end up going twice this year...

It is cool. However, it used to be free and now it's like $5. For free it's a great deal. For $5 it's not.
Still, plenty of old medical stuff in a preseved old pharmacy.

More on the museum:
In 1823, the first licensed pharmacist in the United States, Louis J. Dufilho, Jr., opened an apothecary shop here. This Creole-style town house doubled as his home, and he cultivated herbs needed for medicines in the interior courtyard. Exhibits highlight milestones in pharmacy and medicine. The exhibits include various medical widgets, gizmos and gadgets, some partical and some not.
They've got little pharmacy bottles of herion and what-not. Also, the last two words of the above paragraph makes the museum especially fun.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Oh Lord. We had a new Crescent City Beignets open in Memphis. They're advertising authentic French Quarter atmosphere in a converted fast food restaurant that has plastic tables and chairs, a plastic order counter with backlit menu overhead, and a storefront made out of modern floor-to-ceiling windows. All this about 3/4 of a mile from Owen Brennan's, mind you.
Yo, "authentic atmosphere" requires more than draping a few Mardi Gras beads around the interior of a Denny's.

No I'm not - I find this stuff fascinating.
It is cool. However, it used to be free and now it's like $5. For free it's a great deal. For $5 it's not.
You sure? Yahoo says $2.

Impractical medical widgets fucking ROCK.
BWAH!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
The Pharmacy Museum is a stop on a lot of Quarter tours.
Ah, you antique jewelry and that kind of stuff fans, I'll take you to see Cyn at the Silversmith's. Then hopefully by whatever returaunt her husband's cooking in.
