Incarnation (or The INCARNATION) means that God took human form in the body of Christ. The doctrine is based on the paradox that because God was incarnated in Christ, Christ was both fully human and fully God at the same time. For Lent, I am studying this much more deeply. BTW, The Church festival commemorating the announcement (Annunciation) of the Incarnation by Gabriel the Archangel to Mary is held on March 25 (Lady Day). How often have I driven on and parked on Annunciation St. in New Orleans from the Crescent City Connection to the uptown Walmart w/o ever making that miraculous connection in my mind?
GAZETTE (New Orleans) — When Mary accepted God’s offer to bear and give birth to Jesus (Conceptio Christi), the Word (of God) became one of us. God became “incarnate,” with a body like ours; hence the name Incarnate Word. Because of His resurrection, the Incarnate Word continues to dwell among us. The Resurrection is celebrated on Easter Sunday.
Conceptio Christi is a Christian holiday commemorating the visit of the angel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary, where he announced that she would give birth to Jesus Christ.
Going back further, even unto the Old Testament, this boy (below) wants to know how people inhabited the earth.
His daddy had already told him that people multiplied from Adam and Eve.
I made a note for y'all in the below video. Follow me down this rabbit hole for a possible golden nugget.
This video shows me telling you something about the Easter time March 25th Feast of the Annunciation or Lady Day that I recently spoke about. I thought that I should share this with you. I mispronounced the Greek phrase Conceptio Christi. I will redo the video one day to correct my mispronounciation. Click:
Feast of Conceptio Christi
Speaking of feasts, I have a question about the picture of the pan of deliciousness that is shown here.
The caption called this #NewOrleans stuffed bell peppers. My question is: do people make these in other parts of the country? pic.twitter.com/WSzxad6MGr
Abolitionist John Brown was executed on charges of treason, murder and insurrection on December 2, 1859, only 6 weeks after his arrest and October raid on Harper’s Ferry to free the slaves. Oh My, how times have changed with respect to speedy justice! The song below highlights for history the effects of Brown’s raid on Harper’s Ferry.
2/2 >>I listened to the song to see if it helps me understand better. In fact, I like the song:https://t.co/i0Po8vGkRW
John Brown said that his punishment of death by hanging was unjust because he didn’t murder anyone and was being treated like he did.
Christ shall the Liberator be.
I love verse 4 of the song.
Verse IV.
John Brown was John the Baptist, of the Christ we are to see — Christ, who of the bondman shall the Liberator be; and soon throughout the sunny South, the slaves shall all be free. For his soul is marching on; Glory, etc.
Ferdie Delery (October 26, 2023) — I will post a quickie video here about a grocery basket rear-end, booty clobber (see below) with a clearer explanation coming soon. Then, I will notify y’all once the full explanation is published here. Thank you!
Video: In line at the grocery store. Then…
Now, back to my Indian name:
MyIndian name isSitting Wolf. I may have a tad bit of Indian blood in my roots, but I also have some French-Cajun ancestors who fought with Sitting Bull at the Battle of the Little Bighorn. As friends of Sitting Bull and the Sioux, they wore cuts from their Mardi Gras Indian costumes and blended in with the Native Indians. My Cajun ancestors were angry about how the Yankees had been carpetbagging in Louisiana after the Civil War. Similarly, the name Sitting Wolf was passed down to me likewise to what I explained in my article at DeleryGazette.com entitled King Farouk III. https://delerygazette.org/2020/11/02/king-farouk-iii/
About my ascendency to the throne of the ancient King Farouk Dynasty which I explain in the article, I succeeded Fuad II who was the ninth mystical ruler of the ancient Muhammad Ali Dynasty and am in the lineage of the penultimate King of Mount Zion per the Caribbean Sea.

Ferdie Delery (2023) — I have to write an explanation about my video above in which I tell about the grocery-line argument between me and a knucklehead. My video explanation does not do justice. It needs more words which I will link here once I write a deeper explanation.
I perpetrated a rear-end accident.
She (cartoon below) wants to go as Eve to the Halloween party, but...
This is a preview of a chapter from my pending book.
by Ferdie Delery
It just dawned on me. Voila! I never knew! A big part of my psyche (ever since I was 21 years old) has been a deep, inner sense inside me of being a cast out. Why? Now I know. I don’t need “no” therapist. I can blame it on two music albums that I guess even my brothers and sisters remember. Which I will explain here.
For Christmas break from school in Baton Rouge in 1971 at LSU, I packed up my things and drove back to New Orleans to my mom and dad’s house. I walked into the house to the den with my bags and a big smile, sending my dad into a state of conniption. He and I have never, ever been the same loving father-son combo again. I quit LSU and Baton Rouge. Of course, I already had my B.A. from The U. of New Orleans. For Christmas break, I had cleared my LSU dorm out, moved the f*** out and was back in the arms of my loving parents. Good God Almighty! My dad surely thought that he had gotten rid of me. No! Ferdie’s back!
I will explain more, but let’s fast forward for now to after the holidays when no one but me and my mom were left in the house alone during the day. My dad was at work and my brothers and sisters were at school. The major malfunction was that I brought back home with me from Baton Rouge two popular albums at that time. They were MERCY, MERCY ME by Marvin Gaye and the sound track of the movie SHAFT by Isaac Hayes starring Richard Roundtree. I loved the albums and played them unmercifully every day from morning until my dad got back home from work.
The relentless music drove my mom to distraction. One day, I got home from out and my dad had broken up my record player and albums; he turned into the monster of Frankenstein. By the next day, I had scoured the newspapers and found myself a lovely little apartment for $65.00 per month. Remember the times I was in back then with reference to the rent amount. Anyway, my psychic health and well-being have never been the same since. That despicable “son-of-a-gun”!
(To be continued). Of course, I will write more of this chapter later. Thank you!
I will cook a batch of my cajun boudin soon, and post a picture of a new addition to my recipe. Of course, I might also write a more in-depth recipe for y’all exposing some of my secret ingredients.
In Cajun cooking, particularly that of Acadiana parish in Louisiana, boudin refers to a mixture of meat, rice, and seasonings which are then stuffed in pork casings. Pork is the most traditional meat used, but you’ll also find boudin stuffed with crawfish, alligator, or shrimp. Boiled, smoked, or grilled, boudin can be consumed virtually anywhere which makes it an easy and satisfying on-the-go meal that fisherman and hunters are especially fond of.
Okay, the Saints are resting now since I wrote the below meme. However, I am beginning to read about the Saints again, but we all know that they are going to lose ignominiously this coming season if they continue their offense with the same juvenile game plan as last season… #woeisme!
…unless they play one QB at a time. Then, I will like them again.
NOTE: By the way, See below what I think about the New Orleans SAINTS’ game plan under the current coaches.
GAZETTE (April 14, 2023) — I cannot wait until I get to my refrigerator in order to see what holiday deliciousness is left.
UPDATE: I “eviscerated” the food into my stomach. So, that is why…The cat who ate the canary.
I said that they put me in “time out” because it looks like they punished me after I raided the fridge for some leftovers from Thanksgiving.
Then...
If you are wondering what my thoughts were when I studied the picture of this girl, I wrote out some words that explain a little bit about what was percolating in my cranial area at the time. Scroll down a little bit to see what I wrote.
I say something below.
More news...
Now that my stomach is filled up, I feel like watching some TV. I do not need any blankets or heat because it is very pleasant tonight.
She is watching TV.
MEANWHILE:
Music is the language of love. A song is what sparked off all of the love in the classic movie CASABLANCA.
Oh, what a love song!
I just watched the New Orleans SAINTS get rubbed out in a football game as usual. But anyway...
1/2 …If SAINTS GM Mickey Loomis keeps this crowd around for another year or much longer, he needs to be fired too. The #deplorable, supremacist element down here in this neck of the woods loves what's going on with the Saints' offense (if you get my drift)… pic.twitter.com/Nl9wHllugj
The Baton Rouge Advocate bought the New Orleans Times-Picayune and now we get LSU on the front page of the sports every day, and relegate Saints, Pels, Tulane to page four or further back in the newspaper. UPDATE: Word must have reached the Advocate because the newspaper has recently been fairer in its placement of stories about SAINTS, Pelicans, Tulane, etc.
#Tulane is having a good year. I am tired of seeing LSU take the whole front pg of the sports every day in New Orleans. Tulane, the #SAINTS and PELS are relegated to pg 4 or deeper. LSU is fine, but why smash the B.R. LSU in our New Orleans faces. 1/2 https://t.co/X04Xy01ELApic.twitter.com/QsiWhaZw3F
Even Jesus Christ held music “upon high” in his ministry, and sang hymns when he met with his followers. Jesus’ music tradition is still carried on today in most religions which hold music up in a high place. The Scriptures say that the Lord lives in our praises. Godly, spiritual music is praise.
This picture below is scientists’ rendition of how Jesus looked (using scientific and DNA methods). This is the picture of Jesus that they portray.

Scientific methods drew this picture of how they say that Jesus looked.
Do you remember when Donald Trump strangled his secret service agent on January 6th?
Do you believe your very own eyes or do you believe the words coming out of Donald Trump’s lying mouth about the incident?
Proof with your own eyes…
GAZETTE (New Orleans) — This picture below of Mrs. Thomas is somewhat mean-spirited. Mrs. Clarence Thomas is a lovely lady. It is her politics and sway on Clarence’s SCOTUS decisions that people do not like.
Ginni Thomas
This is a younger picture (below) of Ginni Thomas which shows how lovely she was.
Ginni when younger.
Many people wonder if Donald Trump will suffer any consequences for his insurrection crimes on January 6th. He wants to announce early for the 2024 Presidential race in order to protect himself from prosecution. His thinking is that no charges will be brought against him while he is campaigning.
BREAKING: A Former federal prosecutor just said Donald Trump could be sent to prison for life over Jan. 6

Meanwhile, I would like to perform my act and music again.
by FERDIE (July 4) — My stand-up comedy and music career might be over. The Corona virus shut the doors of the coffee house at which I performed for a number of years. When it opened back up (they and Algiers Point Bar where I did some open mic nights) contacted me often to come back and perform. I was not ready to go into Corona crowds yet. They eventually stopped calling. I might start back, but I still avoid Corona crowds.

Kareem Abdul Jabber at 7’2″ makes Bill Russell and Muhammad Ali (both over 6 feet tall) look short. I tell you what, as I get older, I can see people who were shorter than I now look taller than I. It surprises me, but I had a back injury with vertebrae damage.

Inquiring minds want to know. Can we come up with the public’s opinion on the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard of their day (Brad&Angie)? I am now thinking that I should have given 2 more choices: 1. Neither one is wrong, or 2. Both of them are wrong.
Big Mama sang it before Elvis did. I am trying to remember if Elvis sang it for his first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show. This hit launched Elvis onto his phenomenal career. My thoughts: “You been snoopin’ round my door. You can wag your tail, but I ain’t gon’ feed ya’ no more”!
Here I write about a Mardi Gras memory; a blast from the past!
Firstly, a note: by Ferdie (Jan. 28, 2023) — I received some good news about my A1C and blood sugar levels on Thursday. My doctor said, “Excellent”!
After that good news, this is what I said about my “staying afloat” health wise and how I wanted to celebrate:
Now, back to my article:
BOSCOVILLE (Gazette) — By the way, this is from Mardi Gras weekend 2014 in New Orleans: The best of the parades and the best of the Balls are this weekend… culminating on Fat Tuesday. I am worn down tonight; but I am going to kick things back off in the morning.
Yes, this picture is becoming one of my favorites. I need to find this poster and hang it on my wall. WHERE CAN I FIND THIS POSTER?? I want it.
New Orleans
GAZETTE (February, 2014) — I just read something that reminded me that the OSCARS are tonight. I might come back online later and list my choices before the broadcast.
GAZETTE (Jan. 20, 2023) — True story! During a 2023 New Year’s celebration (at about 1220am), I sang a song for the crowd which I dedicated to a sweet someone which rendition made her swoon. I occasionally serenade her anyway; and many of the romance songs which I sang at the Coffee House were written by me for her. Very true!
GAZETTE (Jan. 28, 2023) — This following definition enhancement is illuminating for me because it tells me a success strategy. It might help me with reaching my goals:Ideation is not just a one-time idea generation or a brainstorming session. In fact, we can divide ideation into these three stages:generation, selection, and development.
A NOTE in 2014. (I have since changed my mind 180°): Coach Monty Williams of the New Orleans Pelicans needs to be fired. This team has been in last place of their division for the last three years. Does owner Tom Benson have his head stuck up his buttockal area?
I like old-school movies and old-school pictures. Bettie Page has to be the most prolific pinup queen ever. She has a great, unending volume of pictures. The Los Angeles Times wrote: “Page was most famous for the estimated 20,000 4-by-5-inch black-and-whoite glossy photographs taken by amateur shutterbugs from 1949 to 1957. The photos showed her in high heels and bikinis or negligees, bondage apparel–or nothing at all.”
GAZETTE (Sept. 2019) — Where is #HurricaneDorian going to hit in the U.S.? I heard some say that it might hit #Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump’s #Florida resort.
Ann Coulter sent an interesting tweet.
At least Dorian patiently waits outside our border before crashing ashore, more than can be said for your average illegal.
To explain the meaning of the Louisiana state flag, one must stress the fact of the Catholic spiritual act of self mutilation or self torture. This is called vulning which many Catholics have practiced throughout history. The pelican harms itself to feed blood to the three chicks. This is symbolic of Christ who sacrificed his blood to save his followers. Louisiana is historically a Catholic state based on its French and Spanish roots.
NOTE: The Dodgers will win next year. The San Diego Padres are still hanging on this year. UPDATE: Eventually, the Houston Astros beat the Phillies in the 2022 World Series after the Phillies eliminated the Padres 4 games to 1 in their series.
In the meantime, I would surely enjoy some pie...
My warning to all of the dummies and critics in the world: you do not eat the whole pan, you big dummy.
Do no eat whole pan.
I was in a movie with Paula, DEJA VU. I know that I mention this occasionally. I am watching one of her other movies right now and that is what made me bring it up. I was an extra in Deja Vu; Paula was one of the Stars. We eyeballed each other on the set. I tweeted her to ask her out after she and her husband, singer Robin Thicke, broke up. I tweeted her to ask if she wanted me to escort her to the Oscars.
Paula Patton and my tweet to her. I asked her out on a date.
@PaulaPattonXO >>I am officially logging my request here for a date w/you. Maybe I can escort u to the Oscars 1 day. You eyeballed me once.
And now, here is Heidi Klum in the picture below. I had posted a video of Heidi here also, but I took it down today. In the video, she was “too sexy for herself.” 🙂 I heard a comedian say that onstage once. He said that he was too sexy for himself.

Then, here goes O.J. running off his mouth how Deshaun Watson’s six-game suspension for molesting 27 women was a long enough punishment. My opinion is that Deshaun should have been suspended for the whole season.
My current take on the New Orleans Saints: I turned my TV off Sunday in the 4th Quarter after 2 horrific referee calls. I cannot take it anymore! P.S. I have the hat on in the picture below because my head got cold overnight.
I meant to make a video here to say something about the Saints loss on Sunday, but I hit the wrong button. Anyway, I might write something at Delery Gazette later on. I am still upset over the game. I turned my TV off in the 4th Quarter after 2 bad calls.https://t.co/YX0KcJ63IR
