40 under the influence

The Gambit – our alternate paper here in New Orleans – is holding its 40 under 40 contest and in true nolafugee.com spirit a mock 40 Under the Influence is being held simultaneously. N and I voted to get J in it and today when he came to help me do a couple of dump runs at the LaLa and showed up still drunk from the night before, we knew he was a perfect nominee. At first he wouldn’t let Nanc take a picture but then said he would if I was in it – as his occupation, he said to put down hustler.

While he laid on the ramp, I filled the truck and garbage bags with the debris. He said he liked watching me work but wished I was wearing black tights. In the mind of men lies some alternate universe.
