Houston & SE TX Saints Fans Unite! Speak Up!

Hello Hou-Dats,

Kase (she spells it "Casey," but for some reason this is my shortened version) & I are in rural Illinois, where her family is from, which is why she talks so funny. We're in between a bunch of cornfields, and soybean fields, about 1 1/2 hour SW of Chicago, but I aint going nowhere near Chicago. uh uh. got my last view of a major city in St. Louis, and guess what-- nothing but horrible traffic. Forget that, I'm not going anywhere with a population over 20,000 until vacation is over.

It is 81 degrees today with no humidity, and a nice breeze. Her grams (thats what Northern people call their maw maw and paw paw) get the NFL network, so I'm gonna catch the replay. Otherwise, I have zero appointments, except a big hill trail along the Illinois river, and maybe a trip to the cleanest Walmart I've ever seen. I have not heard a siren or a car playing rap music, since last thursday. The kids are outside playing, and I barely know they're here.

Apparently, my job is already in disaster mode in my absence, as a water leak over the weekend destroyed the computer at my desk, printer, phone, and radio control board. My first question to my supervisor this morning, was, "Did my Saints stuff make it alright?"

All we have here is grandma internet, where each page takes about 20 minutes to load, so I'm only going to pop in here and there, and post on one or two threads. If I make a phone call, I fear I may have to climb a pole. (only people 40+ are gonna get that.)

So how bout the Houston Chapter of Who Dat Nation get together this saturday, and RAISE SOME HELL, ok??? Yall get out somewhere together, wear your black and gold, and REPRESENT US! Please bring some sort of effigy of me, just find something short, and give it a shot of Jack Daniels, in my honor.

See you soon. GEAUX!
