For those of you that don’t know, I was born and raised in Louisiana. Tonight Brew Brees and the New Orleans saints made history winning the first Super bowl they have played. Long time Saints fans and Louisiana residents in general have waited for this since the Saints first called New Orleans home.  I won’t take up a lot of time or space here, I just wanted to congratulate The entire team on a victory well deserved and long overdue. CONGRADULATIONS and enjoy this, you deserve it.

I’m not in Louisiana  now and tonight I wish I was there celebrating with my friends and family. I think Mardi Gras is starting early early this year. "Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez", Let the good times roll.

Like many people I have been watching what has been going on at NBC with the Tonight show, Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien. I didn’t plan on commenting on any of it mostly because this isn’t a gossip or tv blog, and because I like and enjoy both Jay Leno and Conan O’Brien. However, after watching Conan’s farewell speech on his last Tonight show last night (Jan. 22, 2009) I decided to write this and give my respect to Conan. He did a great job and his farewell speech was both classyand inspirational.  He stepped out of his comedic box for a moment and spoke from the heart. I have included his final speech for anyone who missed it and might want to see it. I have always enjoyed Conan O’Brien but last night I gained a new respect for him. Wherever life takes him and whatever he decides to do in the future, he has gained at least one new fan (me) and I eagerly await to see where he lands. In his speech Conan said “If you work hard and you are kind, amazing things will happen”

I completely agree with those words and just wanted to show my respect to Conan O’Brien on my blog. Amazing things WILL happen. Thank you Conan, and your staff, for bringing us years of entertainment, and I hope you will continue to do so. When and if Conan comes back to the screen, I for one,  will be watching.

For those of you that have not seen this skit about William Shatner addressing a Star Trek convention, you need to watch. He tells it like it is. Now let me be clear, I have nothing against those that want to dress up and have a good time at the conventions, I’m a trekker myself. I’m a big fan of William Shatner and all the cast of Star Trek. This is a classic skit from Saturday Night Live and it makes a point. My philosophy of life is to get out and enjoy life. Live it for all it’s worth. Enjoy William Shatner (Captain Kirk) as he explains how it is.
