OMG! I knew him when I lived there. He used to hang out at one of our drinking holes (saloons). He was a nice and funny fella but you had to catch him early because he would turn into an arrogrant moron of a drunk with a really big mouth before too long...I haven’t read the article yet but I’m going to now and I’m just going to assume there was some alkeeehol involved...By the way, I’m watching the Saints v. Chargers at Wembley Arena in London, GO SAINTS!!! Well, I’m not IN London, but the telly is!

Responding officers wrote in their report that Rose had a "strong odor of alcohol and slurred speech."

Yup, I had to “tut tut” and shake my head...actually, having lived in N.O. for nearly a decade, are there any stories that DON’T involve alcohol and slurred speech? ;-)That being said, leaving there probably saved my life,even if it did break my heart because I absolutely loved the Big Easy and it will always be in my heart...I left right before Katrina. I’m still watching the game and it’s turning out to be a good one! Go N’AWLINS! Give us some Lagniappe!!

I’m amazed that he’s actually straight.

Always had him pegged as gay.

I'd bet that bar was Monkey Hill, eh?

I know he used to live down the street from there.

I never got the impression that he’s gay, but just a whiny guy who talked about nothing but Brittney Spears before the storm, and his own whiny self after the storm.
