Hey Crab Man!… PAD #1140

Hey Crab Man!... PAD #1140

One of my favorite lines in My Name is Earl is when Earl sees Darnell and says, “Hey Crab Man”. Well, today I went to Joe’s Crab Shack on the Boardwalk in Shreveport. I just learned too that today started MudBug fest or something like that and I could have gotten some free crawfish on the other side of the river. I’ve tried them before but I didn’t quite enjoy them. They were even more work for less reward than the crab legs I got for lunch at Joe’s.

After lunch I walked around the boardwalk and hit ColdStone Creamery. I concocted a mixture of Sweet Cream, Chocolate and Peanut Butter ice creams. Then I had them mix in Oreo, Reese’s Peanut Butter cups, Twix, Roasted Almonds and Hot Fudge. Very tasty.

After that I got myself tickets to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I liked the characters and the nods to the original three movies. I also liked the end however the plot of this one was not that good. It could have been much better as far as the story. I even liked the character of Mutt Williams. It was good to see Harrison Ford in the Fedora again but he is looking old.

Tomorrow I head home. It was nice to have a little breather after a long week of running from State to State. Shreveport was pretty fun overall. The Boardwalk was certainly a good place to relax and get some tasty food.

I wrote a guest post for IZEA today and modified today’s Photo-A-Day with Picnik for the post. I like that one better than how the PAD came out. Check out the post as well as the photo.

Shreveport, LA. Riverwalk…PAD #1139

Shreveport, LA. Riverwalk...PAD #1139

Another whirlwind day. I started in North Carolina, flew to Dallas and then on to Shreveport, LA. I had a demo the first thing this morning and it went pretty well. Then I drove back to the airport to catch my first flight of the day, no problems. I flew on to Dallas and caught my next flight. I did land 10 minutes before boarding in a different terminal than my next flight but I ran/walked fast all the way and had plenty of time to spare. That flight was fine and I was really getting into my book, The Last Templar, so the time went by quickly.

When I was at the Raleigh Durham airport I walked by this facade of a VW peace bus. I noticed that a bunch of people had put stickers on the bus over time. It didn’t look like anyone minded much so I took one of my Mad Gringo stickers and added it to the bus. I think it works pretty well there. The restaurant was a beach themed one and Mad Gringo is perfect for the theme.

When I arrived in Shreveport I went right to the hotel and caught up with the other demonstrators as they were headed out for dinner. We went to Salt Grass over on the Riverwalk. Tomorrow when my demo is over I will go get changed and head over there to explore the place. I called it an early night and headed to the hotel. I caught CSI New York and am noticing a trend in the CSI finales this year. Spoilers and conjecture. Each one leaves you wondering about a key CSI player. I am surprised that they didn’t put Grissom in harms way as well. My predictions are that Mac will get out of this fine, Caine’s death is a fake out and unfortunately Warrick is dead.
