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!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Memorial day is Monday, May 30th.

Leans over to give Ann a big hug, accidentally puts a boob in the powdered sugar. Declines graciously when ND offers to lick the sugar off.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm worried about the humidity too and I don't really drink so the bars as bars aren't interesting to me. The bars as places where you can hear music -- much more enticing.
Man, there are so many other things to do in New Orleans besides sweat and get hammered. Like...a zydeco/rockabilly bowling alley. With two-stepping and live music.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
What about vegetarian, or some of the other local ethnic stuff?
Hil should be able to help with this.
Best place for New Orleans type food that also has vegetarian stuff is, IMO, Jacques-Imo. It's on Elm (next door the the Maple Leaf), and they've got tons of seafood stuff that everybody raves about, plus a fantastic vegetarian platter.
For totally vegetarian, there's Old Dog New Trick, but I've never been there.
Is Camellia Grill still open? I'd heard rumors that it was closing, but I haven't heard anything in awhile. If it is still open, they've got burgers that were voted best burgers in New Orleans at one point, really good pecan pie, and the best omelettes I've ever had in my life. (Not the usual French omelettes -- it's kind of hard to describe, but they're really good.) If it is still open, I plan on getting there for breakfast one of the days I'm there.
Just about every restaurant on Magazine Street has at least one or two vegetarian options.
In the Quarter, and along St. Charles, it's a little more difficult. A lot of those places have nothing vegetarian on the menu, but if you finagle it a bit, you can get them to bring you fettuccini alfredo or something like that -- one of their seafood pasta dishes without the seafood.
For ethnic, one of my favorites is Sara's. It's on Dublin, kind of behind Camellia Grill, and it's a kind of nouveau Thai/Indian. It's a little on the pricy side, but not ridiculous. There's good Indian at Nirvana on Magazine and Napoleon, and a great Middle Eastern place further down on Magazine that I can't remember the name of right now. Magazine also has Juan's Flying Burrito, which is pretty good.
