A New Big Loser Contest

Posted in Entertainment, Family, Health, Politics by

To my brother, Carl: Below is the chart which we spoke about concerning the last Gazette Biggest Loser Contest. Yes, you won in the end. Some people are asking me to kick off another Biggest Loser Contest.

Yes, Carl won it.

I picture here a sweetie pie who has won a piece of my heart. I will say a little bit more about my love for her later.

Meanwhile, I have a question about Cristela Alonzo’s tweet below. Exactly what is Cristela tweeting about?:

Recently, Stacey Dash said it for me. I say, Bruce Jenner is not a hero in my book for turning into a woman. Stacey has been temporarily suspended by FOX NEWS for other recent statements, but she is surely speaking for millions of Americans who are being marginalized because of all of the political correctness going on in this country these days.

What was the #1 sin that brought down the wrath of God onto Sodom and Gomorrah? #Homosexuality. Genesis Chapter 19 says: “The LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah — from the LORD out of the heavens. Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, including all those living in the cities…”

On a different subject, do you really need your lady to be a genius? I know that Sarah Palin has done some boneheaded things, but she makes my heart pitter patter. For real! Me likes her!!

Sarah! Honey!! What are you doing to me, girl? Is it alright for me to dream about Sarah Palin like this?

Now, here are pictures that my daughter took on Halloween of my grandchildren. My daughters were dressing my grandchildren in their costumes for the festivities. We all had a fun time. If you want to see even more pictures of us from Halloween, you can click here: More Pictures At My Daughter’s Site.

Bill Cosby Deserves Prison Time

Posted in Entertainment, History, News by

Because of the statute of limitations, Bill Cosby is avoiding criminal charges for the many rapes that he is accused of. Something legally needs to change after this many accusations are lobbed at a rapist. Former Saints Player Darren Sharper is serving prison time for the exact same crimes. However, Sharper committed many, many fewer rapes than Bill Cosby is accused of.

Cosby’s horrific acts were truly criminal activity as bad as any rapist’s sociopathological hunger for crimes where they plot, plan and stalk young women for their hunt. Cosby is an absolute predator who is a serial rapist. Victims need a justice system which will aid them not hurt them in their pursuit of satisfaction of their grievances. Rape victims need a system in which they also do not fear that their accusations will be swept under the rug where the passage of time will hide the rapes which they suffer. Thus, causing their rapes to fall under the statute of limitations.

Crystal Hefner Truly Lovely

Posted in Art, Entertainment, Family by

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — Seeing Hugh Hefner and his pretty wife, Crystal, together is a beautiful scene. Hefner has very good taste in women, and does himself a fine service by having Crystal by his side. I am guilty of making a silly joke below; but, to be sincere, I think that Hefner has been a man who has always had his feet grounded on a solid foundation. I think that he has an excellent cranial system.

Hugh and Crystal Hefner make a very lovely couple.

Graham and Marshawn to Kill PATS

Posted in Entertainment, Sports by

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — The New Orleans Saints do not want to make the Super Bowl any time soon, especially after trading Jimmy Graham #TheBeast to Seattle with Marshawn Lynch #TheBeast already terrorizing defenses in the NFL. Two BEASTS at the same time? HISTORICAL! I am down with that. Until further notice and unless something changes, my money is on the Seattle SuperHawks in 2015.

Now, I want Seattle to stomp on the head of the cheating New England Patriots. Seattle, you had the snake crushed in this year’s Super Bowl. You let them get away. You begin that journey this year with another beast added to your inventory. I want it. I want it!! I hope that all PATS haters around the country are salivating from their teeth itching to see the next Seattle vs. New England game.

Jimmy Graham, the new #BEAST in town.

Plus, I must say that I am amazed how popular Bettie Page still is today. I am sure that her people are making much more money than Bettie did in her day. I bought a beautiful red t-shirt which commemorated Bettie’s birthday last year. It is one of my favorite shirts. Geaux, Bettie!!

In other Saints news, I was asked my opinion of the owner’s battles with his heirs in which he is, upon his passing, leaving the running of the Saints and Pelicans exclusively to his wife. My opinion is that the teams and his fortune are his to do with as he likes. His heirs are already taken care of well enough by Mr. Benson. His wife, Gayle, will be the best person to take care of the Saints and the Pelicans once Mr. Benson is gone.

Mardi Gras Weekend Next Week

Posted in Art, Entertainment, Family by

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — If you are not already packing your suitcase in preparation to head to New Orleans for Mardi Gras 2015, you need to make up your mind quickly. Next weekend is Mardi Gras weekend. This weekend I am waiting on my daughter to tell me what 3 parades she and her crew are marching in on this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I might already be tired by next weekend. This picture below which I saw this morning has me absolutely ready to go to the French Quarter for some Mardi Gras, Big Easy food.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME MARDI GRAS?

Ready for Fat Tuesday?

Ready for Fat Tuesday?

BOSCOVILLE (Ferdie Werdie) — I try to be politically correct so that the ladies on ‪#Twitter and #‎Facebook‬ do not get upset with me. However, I cannot be silent about the female referee in the #LosAngelesClippers vs. #ClevelandCavaliers game that just ended. I do not believe in #female referees in the ‪#‎NBA‬. There ya’ go; I know you ladies are gettin’ mad now. The game was a ‪#‎bitchFEST‬ tonight. I think that the girl referee threw 6 or 7 technical fouls just on the Clippers, changing the whole “tenor” of the game. If a Clipper just looked at her “hard” or rather roughly, she called a technical, with one Clipper even being ejected from the game. She should be home cooking or washing dishes, not on an @NBA court. Sorry, ladies. Do not be mad! I’m just saying!

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — Also, I am sure that many fans are still following the news about Bobbi Kristina Brown. She had opened her eyes twice, and showed slight improvement, according to earlier reports. Of course, the world knows that she was found unconscious last weekend in a bathtub very similarly to how her mother, Whitney Houston, was in 2012. The circumstances are eerie!! As of this writing, she is still in an induced coma. Her family had been advised to expect the worst, and reports are leaking in that the final word is imminent.

Whitney and Bobbi.

In the latest about her condition,

Previous reports were coming out that Bobbi Kristina was showing signs of life. Requests for prayers from her family and friends (#PrayforBK on Twitter) may have been heeded from BK’s many fans. I have seen many tweets and posts about people around the world praying for Bobbi Kristina.

Here in this tweet Pete Carroll tries to explain his bone-headed play in the Super Bowl.

Why, Warren? Why?

No Smoking in New Orleans

Posted in Entertainment, Health, News, Politics by

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — A NO SMOKING ban takes effect in 90 days in casinos and bars in New Orleans. Mayor Mitch Landrieu signed the ordinance today. Some smokers are not happy with the new rules.

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — PLUS, I promised my readers to install segments of my 2015 New Orleans Mardi Gras experience. I wish that I had an old-school manual typewriter because that is what we used when I started writing as a “cub reporter” for newspapers in the Big Easy. Meanwhile, I have a question for alimentary canal experts. I want to know if the potency of jalapeno peppers is still “hot, hot, hot” once it passes through the intestines?

TMI??: At the movies yesterday, I used some of those theater jalapeno peppers on a personal pan pizza. My tongue and lips burned a “good” 15 minutes. Last night at home, my stomach started burning up. In the latrine, I had a blow-out from my posterior. My rear-end burned for 7 minutes. Do peppers maintain their potent heat even after going through the digestive tract? Is that even scientifically possible?

Where does the job of the digestive tract end (finito) after doing its job? In other words, what is the final destination of the digestive tract elements after the job is done?

Digestive track EXIT.

Digestive track EXIT.

Also, I am sure that today we are all following the news about Bobbi Kristina Brown. This is so eerie!! She was found unconscious over the weekend in a bathtub very similarly to how her mother, Whitney Houston, was in 2012. As of this writing, she is still in an induced coma. Her family has been advised to expect the worst.

I have seen quite a few movies about the NAZI death camps, and read much about them. I will never get used to the horror. The world is honoring 70 years since the Russian army entered the Nazi Auschwitz death camp to end the German reign of death there. I keep all of those who suffered and died there in my prayers.

I will play a salute on my trumpet to Sarah Palin. Hail to the chief!

Rosemary Church CNN

Posted in Entertainment, News, Politics by

NEW ORLEANS (Gazette) — CNN anchorperson Rosemary Church “liked” my tweet below. I sent the tweet to her in response to her tweet reminding her fans that her show, CNN International, was upcoming. I am watching her show right now as I write. I was drawn to her show in the beginning because I was studying if it was broadcast from across the ocean. Her accent is so lovely that I googled to learn the history of her accent. I was surprised to discover that the show is actually broadcast from Atlanta.

In the photo below, I am seen performing Auld Lang Syne at the turn of midnight on New Year’s Eve. There are party-goers singing along with me as we bring in the new year.
