  1. anyone have experience with this?

    i'm planning to go in feb & march of 2011 and i'd like to do some volunteering for about half of that time. what i've found interesting and somewhat puzzling is that many [read=all] of the opportunities i've come across so far have been quite pricey!

    i'm all ears if anyone's got a good lead for me!

  2. anyone been here?

    went here last night and it was awesome! we had oysters and calamari to start. then, i had broiled jumbo shrimp with veg on dirty rice with a garlic butter sauce. roommate number one [bruce] had blackened catfish with shrimp & crawfish etouffee with dirty rice and veg, and roommate number two [sarah] had mahi mahi [i forget how they cooked it]. it was all deeeeeeeelicious. a nice ripasso to drink which was a bargain at $36.

    the steak menu looked really good too.

    recommended!

  3. some input from NPR:

    1st article "5 artists you should have known in 2010". you can listen to the songs thru the link.. in a nutshell:

    and 2nd "NPR Music's 50 Favourite Albums of 2010". if i get around to it maybe i'll type those out too! just for fun.
