Not surprisingly, I was Probably the only kid In Montana that had a Bayou Bullet poster on the wall. When I was 12, my mom told me “Son, you aren’t gonna meet any girl up here who knows how to cook. So, if you want to eat the foods you like, you better learn how now”. That’s when I made my first gumbo. Being in 5th grade with a southern accent made me stand out. The other boys teased me for it... but that’s probably because the girls loved me for it![emoji16]
I’ve tried to carry that Louisiana spirit where ever I’ve traveled and lived, even if it did not fit in. I have a fleur-de-lis tattoo and I didn’t get it just because of the Saints. That is the ONLY tattoo I have.

In short, it’s closing in on Christmas Eve here, so Merry Christmas to all! My wife’s family is Jewish, so Happy Hanukkah! If you celebrate Kwanza or another event I’m missing, or if you don’t believe in the Holidays at all, I wish you, your family and loved ones happiness and good fortune.

Geaux Saints!

Got the prime rib in the oven. My eldest son is in town and with the wife and I. We opened all our presents (almost all Saints swag)!

Merry Christmas!

Other other end of the spectrum - the bombing today in Nashville occurred one block over from the clubs in which my youngest performs five days a week. Fortunately they live in Clarksville, 30 miles away.

We just tried calling and couldn't get through. We can text but it appears there is an AT&T outage all through middle Tennessee. The bombing occurred in front of an AT&T facility.

Huge explosion in downtown Nashville on 2nd Avenue near Broadway. My son performs on 3rd Avenue and Broadway Street clubs nearby. Shrapnel thrown as far as nine blocks. They are sure it was intentional. 6:30 AM.
