T-P:According to testimony from Kent Lambert, a corporate lawyer with the Baker Donelson firm, St. Pierre wrote an email on Sept. 1, 2004, in which he said, "Kent, One last point, I'm mostly concerned about the legality and my exposure more than anything else."Lambert told jurors it wasn't until August…

Zombie files reports from the St. Pierre gallery

For me, must readinghttp://theamericanzombie.blogspot.com/2011/05/best-show-in-town.htmlFavorite quote: "My Jerry Springer moment suddenly turned to a Ferris Bueller..." Oh lawdie... SO good. You gotta go read it for yourself. Can't wait for more installments. Almost makes me not regret that I missed the show.

Newstar (5/3/11):According to the National Weather Service , Mississippi River levels will reach an all-time high this month, but the Army Corps of Engineers officials said Lousiana’s levees should contain the rising waters.We got a firm "should" from USACE. What more can anyone ask for? I think I'll toss out…

OBL Lens post

Plenty of masturblogging in my recent Lens post celebrating the liquidation of terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden. There's a ton of self-links back to YRHT, and I'll even shamelessly add a few more  that I forgot. http://righthandthief.blogspot.com/2005/01/concession-regret-something.htmlhttp://righthandthief.blogspot.com/2007/03/they-will-follow-us-home.htmlhttp://righthandthief.blogspot.com/2008/06/just-so-were-perfectly-clear.htmlOne little anecdote.

Agreed. Great clear reporting on an under-appreciated crisis. Looking forward to reading the other parts.

Tremeter: General Feedback

Three months after the stormFine introductory episode. Exceptional music. No major qualms with the characters or dialog. They drank copiously and at all hours, which felt realistic. Hard to believe it being 3 months post-storm. N.O. felt much more desolate and empty then. The circumstances dominated every conversation. There was…

When you play at Gambit's level, there's no ordinary venue. Nicely done!

"You can't spell "political forum" without a "P" an "O" and a "T""

Make the second sentence read: "However, I can't quite get on board that particular rumor although I can definitely see Georges doing something like that."

Commented on:
"You can't spell "political forum" without a "P" an "O" and a "T""

Ramsey's move was so puzzling that rumors are bound to happen. However, I can't quite get on board with that although I can definitely see Georges doing that. Didn't he have something to do with the "other" Jacobs running, so that perhaps some voters would be confused and vote for…

Commented on oyster's post:
"Rhymes with Mayhem"

While I didn't see Crouere say that on election night, I would say that I'm reasonably sure that it wasn't a gaffe. We've been around and around on this point before, over the years, and I think you may be reading a too much into Crouere's role in this. Crouere…

"Rhymes with Mayhem"

BSJD: Let me just say at the outset that the posts that go up at the Filter are not as polished or as edited as I'd like. I certainly didn't mean for that claim about the White House's involvement in the election to sound like an original insight. I'll fully…

Hey, thanks for commenting schleppy! I'm glad that this post was difficult to classify in the existing media categories, and wish you the best of luck with your "Fluffpose" coinage. To answer your question, I've not had contact with the Mossy Dealership since I quit working there. There was no…

"New Report Finds Oil and Gas Pipelines in Federal Waters Cause State Wetland Loss"

An incredibly important issue, and I'd like to hear whether the oil industry disputes the findings.

Commented on:
"An Olympic-sized Slap in the Face"

Well, the excuse I heard from the Obama people about him not showing up for the anniversary for the Federal Flood was that, among other things, the healthcare/teabagger debate was going to hijack the media coverage. Harry hits hard.
