Clancy’s in uptown New Orleans is one of the city’s finest restaurants. Not a bad thing on the menu. Everything’s incredible. Speckled trout. Puppy drum with jumbo lump crab meat. Chicken and andouille gumbo. Lemon ice box pie for dessert. ￼

Oh boy! Not only a Newman school magnet on the back of the vehicle but a Country Day magnet as well. That’s $50,000 minimum in school tuition. Add another child to either school and it’s another 25K. Private school is expensive.

If Gayle Benson were to sell the Saints, she has at least two viable suitors. Todd Graves of Raising Cane‘s (worth $22 billion according to Forbes) and Tillman Fertitta of ￼the Houston Rockets ($11 billion). Both have said they would not move the team. ￼

Todd Graves, the Louisiana native who created Raising Cane's, is worth $22 billion. Imagine Gayle Benson selling the Pelicans to him for billions, then distributing that money locally before selling the Saints too. #RaisingCanes #NewOrleans

Why is New Orleans spending $160,000 for an Indiana company to come snow plow some areas for 24 hours? Couldn’t the city buy a plow or 3, that hooks on the front of an existing city truck? $160k for 24 hours seems excessive. But key road, interstate, must be cleared

WE NEED TO REIMAGINE BOURBON STREET—it's a tourist trap that doesn't benefit the city. Imagine Bourbon with jazz clubs and dining, not strip joints and trinket shops. Upgrade the experience, upgrade the revenue, UPGRADE THE CITY. #NewOrleans #BourbonStreet

The Senator Nat Kiefer Sr UNO Lakefront Arena was built with the NBA in mind. Designed where upper deck seating could be added to the building. Remove the roof structure and build up! Btw, Larry Bird’s 60 point game in 1985 was played at the Lakefront Arena

New Orleans at its best. The St Aug Marching 100. And remember, these are just kids! 15, 16, 17-year-olds. Masters at their craft. Mardi Gras 2026. The French Quarter.

The Louisiana crawfish industry faces a potential $100 mil loss due to a shortage of migrant workers for peeling. Without these workers, peeled crawfish, a key market product, are at risk, says Mike Strain, LA commish of agriculture. #Crawfish #Louisiana

Holy smokes! LGD Lawn and Landscapes of New Orleans just installed a chipping and putting green in my backyard. Synlawn is the same synthetic turf that Tiger Woods uses in his TGL golf tour. Get yours. So friggin cool. Taking my short game to another level

NOLA is potentially gearing up for the 2031 Super Bowl with a massive expansion of Louis Armstrong International Airport. Plans include adding 23 gates to the terminal and potentially building a new terminal with 25 more, almost doubling the airport's capacity. #NewOrleans
