My wife and I are moving out there in a month or so. Im gonna drive my Galaxie out there from So Cal, should be pretty interesting. Im sure im gonna asking on here for some help at some point hahahaha. I thought i'd let y'all [ already talking southern ] know, I've spoken to a few guys online that live around the area, if anyone has any information about places, car shit, music etc let me know thanks L
Sorry to lose you, but I think more of us (me especially) will be moving out of Ca soon. Just keep to the high ground, and watch out for anyone saying the house has "minor" water damage..
I hope you have a way of making a living and a place to live set up... from what I saw, N.O. is still pretty torn up.
N.O. is great for the most part....the French quarter and garden district look pretty good now, ninth ward, N.O. East, is another story, still really bad, We go there a few times a month, actually i'm going there today, Just like any city, good areas and bad areas...where you do need a gun.
Gonna miss you and the lady fo shizzle. Bist wishes.......and a going away party???? Nawlins' here he comes.
Please tell us you got a killer job offer or something like that. New Orleans..nice place to visit for a weekend, but god, it was a shithole BEFORE the Hurricane. I have good friends there. They hate it. Bring gunS not "A gun." gunS.
PBRmeASAP i thought i was too !!! hahah, we will be heading up that way often, we have alot of friends up there. My wife is opening a charter school, and im gonna be the highest paid janitor in the country !!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahah. They lost 70 schools or some shit like that, my wife rules, she wants to help everyone, this is a great opportunity for her. Roadapple/coby, we are gonna have a big going away party.
Man, I'm sorry to hear that. Worked down there for 3 years before Katrina; fortunately lived on the North side of the lake. The best way to see N'awlins is in your rear view mirror
New Orleans rules ! Before Katrina hit Louisiana in general was my favorite place to visit. It'll slowly but surely get back in to shape. Make sure you check out Frenchmen street in the north French Quarter. Great music,Great clubs,Great atmosphere!
good luck man, nice to hear you guys are doing a positive thing down there. im from lafayette originally and lived in new orleans for a year before moving out here in 88. anyway the quarter has still got the energy. crime has gotten pretty crazy but its getting better. good luck. eat a po-boy for me.
And just for the record, they don't speak "southern" in Nawlins! Good luck, and I recommend the Kimber Ultra II .45
My wife's Dad, died three years ago from cancer, was from NOLA and carried a gun every day of his life while there. He had to use it a couple times and had to show it a bunch more. He was a terrible shot but it did its job. Then and now, good and bad. Much of the criminal element has moved on after the storm to Houston and elsewhere in the Nation causing trouble and mayhem wherever they go. Those still there are the dumb ones and they are the really scary ones. Keep your eyes and ears open everywhere you go and your pistol in your belt.
I like the 9 mm Beretta, when its go time, and trust me in New Orleans there will be "go times" its accurate and not overwhelming. I doubt the police will come around if anything does happen so good luck. Those kids need schools too, so god bless you.
We had a company truck stolen from two of our employees at gun point during lunch with cops in the same parking lot. We had a rental car get its back window broke out so the theives could take our guys luggage. In broad daylight. While they were taunting our tech and the hotel clerk through the window. Fuck that place. Good luck. Houston needs some new schools too.
THANKS FOR ALL THE POSITIVE FEEDBACK YAH PRICKS HAHAHAH I live in L.A, I've lived in NYC in fuckin Flatbush, i dont give a fuck, this country is crazy. Look at whats goin on in Chicago [ chiggy G ] right now. I know the place is crazy and thats why we are going, i dont really need to be told how fucked up it is. All i know is that when i get there i will get a gold grill and have the first 64 Galaxie on 36 wheels motherfuckin DONK style HOLLA
Good luck to you, really. I live just outside a small rural town in Ga. that is on curfew cause of all the trouble, it's everywhere. I think you made a smart choice. I mean the odds of another hurricane are way in your favor.
It would help to say where you are going to live. Lived there for four years and did not have any real problem - just like any other place - don't be stupid. Lots of music, good food and opportunities there. Good Luck! pm me if you want any info.
Good luck man....i am in a hotel down here right now going to fire fighting school.....leave tomorrow......it's ok i never really been fond of new orleans........but i hate all bigger citties so my vote shouldn't really count.......if you haven't found a place i guy i work with is selling his house down here.....the woman who was going to buy it backed out few days ago...they don't have it with a realter yet......his wife wants to move back to arkansas where she is from and they are planing on building there retirement house up there......i'll give you his email if you are intrested.......he has two more weeks till his comes home from saudi arabia.......
Slate and Model40-770 thanks for the help. I could be interested in the place, we are planning on buying a place right away. So Cal is 600K and NOLA is $200K for the same size place. Pm me his info thanks L
Not at all. I've thought about going down there myself. I've lived on the coast a number of times in different places. The odds really are in your favor. And this small Ga. town really is going under a curfew. It's freaking unreal, but true.
