New Orleans 2011 - FQF - Part Five - Full Disclosure

Well, let's see now, who was it that said: "what goes up must come down"?

Got Beads?

Actually, to be fair and balanced, this guy was sleeping, sitting on a bucket when I walked up.  I was standing, waiting on the sun to get from behind clouds so's the photo of the scantily clad mannequins would sparkle, and noticed this guy on his throne, so to speak.  I thought of a photo but said, 'Nah, they need to be laying on the sidewalk'.

 God chuckled and tipped him over,

Here's my shot.

This dog is in tall cotton, got a grate from an exhaust vent to sleep over.  Hot Damn. 

Let's see now how did it go? 

A pair of loose fitting shoes and a warm place to ? a warm place to ??

ahh i forget.

I spoke with her, (she was on her bluetooth and i interrupted, ahh sorry)

She does this hose job every morning and they mess it up that very night.  She uses hose pressure to clean out the joints of the brick sidewalk.  Gave me the willies.  don't think I would sleep on that.

(never mind, this stream of consciousness thing, sucks)

Yes Sir, Yes Sir three bags full. (you sho 'bout dat? boy?")

They struck me as Five Guys named Mo.

Which one do you think they call Little Big Moe.
