Saks, Mac, a New OS

os-shoes.jpg

Leopard Day was a fun success at The Biltmore. I stopped off at Sak’s then on to the reasonable line that wrapped around the gorgeously landscaped building.

Of course, folks were in good mood. It was also the usual Friday night event at The Biltmore so lots of awesome doggies were out and a non-offensive reggae band. They were so inoffensive it took us awhile to figure out they were actually playing reggae.

Everything moved quickly once our 45 minute wait in line was concluded. The mac zealout that nearly fainted in a puddle of his own urine because we had no interest in an iphone didn’t really make the line more endurable. The older gentleman telling us about converting cameras to infra-red, he was very cool.

Inside the store, we were handed t-shirts and shown the line for just the new OS Leopard. It was quick. I don’t think we were in the store waiting more than ten minutes.

Then on to the MindFreezer party beverage from Coffee Plantation and home.

How is this new OS? Eh, it does some new stuff. I just had to have it. I’m kind of a mac zealot myself.

Whitley Strieber’s Unknown Country

Whitley Strieber’s Unknown Country
“…At virtually the same time, the House of Representatives, at
the request of the Bush administration, cut 70 million
dollars from the Army Corps of Engineers’ budget for the New
Orleans District. Last year, it essentially ended disaster
planning for the region by transferring the chore to a
private company, IEM Corp., and giving it a $500,000 budget.
Now, it has shelved a study that was to determine ways to
protect the city from a Category 5 hurricane…”

IEM Corp? Wonder if Dick Cheney gets any money from that? Need to dig into this one.

WEATHER WARS by Scott Stevens

–{ WEATHER WARS by Scott Stevens }–
Katrina was a weapon?
I don’t know if I’d blame the Russian’s on this one, not with our very own HAARP ready and willing.

Global warming, coastal erosion, and one mofo of a hurricane seems enough to blame without dragging in the russians. But you never know. Seriously, never.

New Orleans webcams

New Orleans Webcams

webcams from around the city. As of 7:24am PDT they were all working.

I wish they had a cam at Marie Laveau’s grave. You can bet there are some impassioned pleas for the Voodoo Queen to save her city.

Jupiter and Venus Conjunct

NASA – Sunset Planets

Jupiter and Venus conjunct in Libra. a good time for getting together. Have a party for the end of summer or the beginning of Fall. Both!

The next two weeks, go with the flow of enjoying other people’s company. Magick suggestion? Pick a day and treat it like it was your favorite holiday.
What do you wear? Eat? Festive moods, kids, you’ve got alot of sky help.

America in it’s Fall

America Lost Its Industrial Edge

Must read story detailing the weakening of America through manufacturing loss and our dependency on Japan and China.
This has been my main gripe of this country for years and I’m tellin’ you to listen up if you don’t want to see your kids working in a chinese labor camp. READ
