Believe me, there’s nothing I’d rather do than to give the gift of a tap dancing Dasypus, but the little fella’s not long back from New Orleans, where he thoroughly exhausted himself working a string of eighteen-hour days helping the Army Corp of Engineers pump toxic water out of the ruins of the Crescent City.
Of course, it didn’t help that late Wednesday, over warm Dixie Beers and Étouffée at Bayona’s on Dauphine St. (whose owner set up a makeshift eatery and beer garden for relief workers under a pitched swatch of tarpoulin salvaged from the Superdome) the beleaguered little bastard and a few of his aid worker buddies were harrangued by Jesse Jackson for failing to appreciate how blacks have “long suffered” from the kind of “institutionalized racism that led directly to the death and destruction we see lining the streets of a once thriving city”—streets that Jackson would have loved to survey personally during his good will tour of the region, but, as one of his advance team noted, “Jesse doesn’t like to get shit on his shoes.â€Â
Then he should stop spewing it out of his pie hole with such force.
In honor of the imminent re-opening of the French Quarter, I propose that we get our weekly dose of armadillo dancing directly from Bourbon St.
That is if he doesn’t get caught in the pumps or catch something nasty like Jesse Jackson.
It could be shinola on his shoes – he doesn’t know the difference, you know.
He may have told you he was performing heroic work in New Orleans, but I’m pretty sure I saw him at the Gold Club in Atlanta this week.
Me? Oh, I was just there for the buffet.
Oh, so that’s where he is. I was beginning to think he wasn’t dancing just because he was sexist, too.
Ask him if he has seen Carville down there, I been wondering why we haven’t heard from ol’ snakehead lately.
So the little shelled bugger couldn’t come down to the base here at Belle Chasse to entertain the troops? Feh.
so who’s under my house? or did he just stop here on the way home?
The little guy was wise to keep his distance. I believe Frank J. had a conceptual anthropomorphized pet snake, and Jackson turned that into a pair of shoes.
Don’t fall for this. The ‘dillo knows something. This won’t end until he’s safely in the hands of a Senate sub-committee.
It was the Cheetah, the Gold Club was closed in one of the going out with a bangs ever.
I know this is not the appropriate place, but I need to vent…
Seems that the death toll from Katrina will be less than 1000 or 1500 perhaps (extrapulating from recent reports of 800 or so – sorry too lazy to link (busy venting)). Will anyone (the Mayor, the press, the weeping Geraldo, etc.) ever admit to purposefully exaggerating the situation in order to bolster their blaming of the feds (i.e. Bush)? In fact it is very hard to find any mention of the official death toll any more. Just pisses me off that the press is not accountable for there blatant lack of fact checking and their burying of corrections. AHHHH. Feck it.
I still don’t think this armadillo exists – maybe we need an actual photo blog of the little guy. Full frontal perhaps. Rodent porn.
Army Corp of Engineers pump toxic water out of the ruins of the Crescent City.
Are these the ruins caused by the clandestine bombing of the 17th Street levee by the New Orleans insurgents?
The conspiracy theories never die, especially when the moonbats are in charge.
I mean…10 to 20 thousand!?!? Barely that many people stayed in N.O. AHHHHHHH.
This ain’t Bangladesh!
But the Joooos evacuated first, before the levees were blown up–right?
Attila Girl—New Orleans’ Tulane University, sometimes called “Jewlane,” is closed due to damage, so the Joos probably had no more to do with the levees than burning the Reichstag. Then again, the Joos are essentially a desert people, removed from the Nile’s seasonal flooding for many years, so the Mossad might have miscalculated.
“Like, I should’ve known just because your name is Moses you didn’t know shit about water.”
“Shut up and row.”
Jeff, you shouldna let the ‘dillo run around in New Orleans without a chaperone. I’ve just heard he’s been cutting a swath through the nutria community.
A shotgun wedding or three may be in the offing.
This armadillo almost sounds like Kos….lets see….Kos is going to destroy the DLC…and whimps out due to the Hurricane….the ‘Dillo stops dancing due to the Hurricane….similiarites? you be the judge.
Most armadillos I’ve known were pretty shy; they usually seem much more comfortable staying inside their shell…
