Parallax

I still miss New Orleans terribly. I constantly entertain ideas of dropping everything and heading back down, even though I know the place is not exactly heaven right now.

A couple of days ago, a guy at this bar I used to hang out in in the Mid-City neighborhood just got up, slashed another guy with a knife and then slit another woman's throat, killing her. He didn't know either of the victims; apparently he'd just had a crappy day at work.

There's a screening of short films about New Orleans called "New Orleans Parallax" on Saturday at Hallwalls. Check it out.

This from Courtney Egan and Helen Hill's film "Cleveland Street Gap."
