TUESDAY!  Where have we been?  The question is, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?  We've been here, just not online.  It's like a virtual non-existence only different -sorta.  Look, we've had a lot of issues recently - some involving the law enforcement community, some involving the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board and some involving the Betty Ford Clinic.  Don't worry (thanks for all of your concerned emails - all zero of them!), we're fine and as a matter of fact we're on our way to New Orleans for a week.

Remember our sponsor, Budweiser? (The "King of Beers!").  Well they figured it would be funny to send us to Louisiana for Halloween and we figured that since they're paying for it we'd oblige.  Besides, we have no pending court dates here in Palm Springs for a few weeks and our night school educated Public Defender got our parole office to clear us for the trip.   We had a "meeting of the minds" last night at the Indian casino during Monday Night Football .  After a few beers (like a hundred) and a few compromising pictures (all with our parole officer in them doing something he's not supposed to do) we're able to travel anywhere.

We still have our rented room there in the French Quarter and the electricity and cable TV are still pirated off of our neighbor's, so that's pretty much all we need - well that and beer - but there's plenty of that on Bourbon Street.  An important thing to note is that our camera (which broke while under warranty a few weeks ago) had to be shipped back to factory since they didn't believe us so there still aren't any action pictures - but the good news is that a new camera has been acquired and will begin taking photos for your viewing pleasure tomorrow.  In the meantime, just sit back, have a few beers (like us) and imagine what we see...

                                         
          Here's the new camera - We bet you can't wait!                   There's a problem with the lens but we'll get it worked out!
