> how long have you been in NOLA? you diggin it?

I love this town. Only been here three days, but I've visited & stayed with my friends here before.


> i'd try to give you some tips on things to check out and do, but i haven't been home since the hurricane

It's eerie. The Quarter is this little island of happiness surrounded by alternating normalcy and desolation. I like it here. I'll see how I feel after three months. Maybe I'll stay.


> ...riding through midwood i've often thought it reminded me of some areas of new orleans.

Like Boots said, I think you're thinking of Ditmas Park, which is very nice. Midwood is kind of a ****hole that I've lived in for 11 years because my rent is super cheap, but I'm surrounded by crazy religious people (jewish). Basically it's a place for me to crash, and there's nice riding nearby.

Gimme a yell when you get back to NOLA. mattqpublic at hotmail dot c o m
