An Urban Explorers Dream And A Girl With A Camera










About month or so ago it was brought to my attention by a Fox News Story That the abandoned New Orleans Six Flags, has become an urban explorers play ground. Since then I've dremed of roaming through the ghostly amusement park. Unfortunatley I have not recieved that chance (Though I've yet to give up) but in the mean time, I've discovered someone who has.

Not Your Regular "Monday" Blues [Monday Valentines]

" We are Monday Valentines and we're here to make you feel good and junk!" Was the status posted on Kentwood's Indie/Rock 'n' Roll Band, Monday Valentines' FaceBook. I have to say I can't disagree. With many strides taken since I last covered them Here, in March. A recent show at The Cypress Venue in Metairie proved to be successful, with a loudly positive response from fans. I was unfortunately not able to attend and greatly regretted it. Most excitedly they've finally recorded, and not to disappoint the new song "Something More" does in fact "Make you feel good and junk" but don't just take my word for it, give if a listen Here and when you love it (Because you will) go ahead and download it because this song is a must for any play list.

So lets make our way over to their FaceBook and give Monday Valentines some praise and while you're at it don't forget a fist bump for their lovely manager, The Brilliant Katie Allen.

Breaking The Chains In Our Small Town Cave [The Fallen Whistles]

Imagine, being a child, stolen away from your family by strangers in the night. You're dropped into a hole among 300 other boys, not one of you is over 15. There you sit for up to 20 hours a day stagnating in your own excrement. The four hours you're let out are filled with abuse and fire arm training, until you are once again thrown into your own filth.


This is the reality children in the Congo are living day to day.


The imagery is heart wrenching on its own, but the true horror lies with the ones too small to handle a gun. In their tiny, children hands they are given nothing more than a whistle and then marched to the front of a line. Their purpose? To make enough noise to draw the enemy's attention and then with their small, innocent, little bodies, to receive the first line of fire.
They are the whistle blowers and this is their story.


Luckily Efforts Are Being Made To Advocate and Rehabilitate Those Affected By The War. I Challenge You To Explore More of This Heart Breaking Story Here.




Pass On The Story, Raise Awareness, And I'll Be Up To Date On Ways To Get Involved Locally Soon.




Its A Pretty Day Outside For Satan

[107 Degrees. That is Unreal]


Well, my last summer as a child has begun to end. In less than a week and a half I will be moving into the Miller Mansion at LSU. As the summer winds to an end I can say one thing and one thing alone, It is Hot. Tiffany, DJ, and I sat down outside for a summer lunch on a sunny day. Needless to say when we realised we were going to be visiting for awhile we relocated to the sweet nirvana of air conditioning. One complaint that cant be made was that it wasnt worth it, We had a lovely evening and ended up emmeressed in four hours of pure conversation. I hope that my last few days can be so sweet.
