Gut Check
Yes, it's true. 14-0 is better than 13-1. But don't forget about where we came from and where we're still going. We're still #1 in the NFC, still in the lead for homefield advantage throughout the playoffs, and still in control of our own destiny to Miami. And thanks to a Vikings loss, we have not lost any ground. So instead of getting down on ourselves about Saturday, let's take a step back and remember how good it is to be a Saints fan right now.
Sometimes when you're flying so high, that bump in the road seems more like a Lakeview-sized pothole. You're just cruising along, and then all of a sudden you feel the crash and wonder if the wheels have come off entirely. After a sub-par (or "bogey" in Blackened Out lingo) meal, I often feel the same way. Just one bad meal can somehow instantly wash away the recent memories of all the good ones. But here's the thing: If it were not for a few failures along the way, the win(ner)s would not mean as much.
So today, let's get back to the basics. French bread, hot sausage, a light smear of mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. All it takes is a trip to Magazine Street Po-Boy Shop, 6 George Washingtons, and one big bite to make you feel better. It's not the best in the world; it's not the worst in the world. But I think it's just we need right now.

Patties over links all day every day.
Did b-o get some new photo equipment? The pics have been looking better lately.
Then again, how could hot sausage not look good? It's like a steamy swimsuit shoot with all that oil.
According to the meta tags, its a Canon SD750, pretty middle of the road camera. He also seems to take pictures with a D60 a few posts back, which is a much more professional camera. Rene takes pictures with a lackluster Olympus camera.
R2D2,
Please my writing may be lackluster, but my photography skills are piss poor.
This is a good blog.
