Having grown up a block off of St. Charles Ave. I’m afraid I will have to recuse myself from this topic as I would probably do irreparable harm to myself and others. To quote Jack ” You want the truth? You can’t handle the truth!”
Having said that I do have a vacant apartment in that very same location that I would gladly rent for the right price. Do I have an opening bid?

Who the heck was doing the news that night?
January 3rd, 2008 at 2:43 pm
Does anybody have a photo of Doug Fernandez after he cracked his head on the I-20 overpass when the parade still went through Bossier? Or I could simplify by simply asking, “Does anybody have a photo of Doug?” hehe…don’t tell my husband.
January 3rd, 2008 at 7:44 pm
Colleen, Doug stopped by the newsroom a few months ago. Here you go. There’s even a place where you can enlarge the photo (but don’t tell your husband). Favorite DF on-air moment: We came back from a commercial with a huge, mangled sweet potato someone had grown…on the set between us. Doug said, “Ever wonder what happened to Alf?”

Does anybody have a photo of Janine D’Adamo? ….don’t tell my wife. I used to have a crush on her back in the day
January 3rd, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Hey Steve! I’ve been trying to remember, but can’t. Anyone remember who did the news that night?
January 3rd, 2008 at 9:59 pm
Big M, I’ll bit on the St. Charles apt if I can see it first. Got any photos?

January 4th, 2008 at 1:10 am
so what if they WERE bought at a general store in Arkansas—at least it would prove that oui Arkansans don’t run around with feet so bare!
okay, sherri…i’ve posted on your site… and yes, I’m using myrealname…
you’re welcome!
By the way—who IS that handsome devil, third drunk from the left?

Hey, thank you for your response. It was a pleasure meeting you. Your attitude on New years really made an impact on my employees. You seem to have a great attitude. I would love to exchange any type of advertizing that I can for you. I just moved here so i appolagize that dont know the station but I have recently put our name all around Shreveport and we are known for how we run our buisiness and I would just be exited to stay in touch with you. Thanks for the photo shot. Rock www.scaredytatts.com or www.myspace.com/scaredytatts

Rock, Sherri here. Great to meet your employees on New Year’s! I can’t wait to post the pic (tied up in a friend’s camera right now) of one of your fire-breathing employees! Let’s stay in touch. Happy New Year!
And myrealname: thanks for commenting all the way from New Orleans!

HRB
No photos but I may actually have two vacancies during Mardi Gras. The apartments are all one bedroom. There is no furniture so you would have to bring an air mattress, folding chairs etc.
The place isn’t the Hilton but its clean and in a safe neighborhood. If you are interested I’ll put you in touch with my property manager.
January 4th, 2008 at 9:31 am
Sherri, isn’t Rock the person who so lovingly did your new “tat” on New Year’s eve? Would love to see a photo of that!
January 4th, 2008 at 11:11 am
No tats here, Dog Runner, but my sister’s in the market for an Ironman tattoo.
January 4th, 2008 at 12:54 pm
Thanks for the info Big M. Doesn’t sound plush enough for her Heiness, Mrs. HRB. We moved away from New Orleans 5 years ago. You mentioned an apt on St. Charles and I had to investigate the opportunity.
January 4th, 2008 at 1:57 pm
I don’t have any recent pictures of Janine but she does stay in touch. I believe she has two little girls now. She’s in Naples, Florda.
January 4th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
Sorry HRB. It’s like being off Broadway. Prytania St. is cool but it is not the Avenue. However I must say that in my single days ( well even my married days) being able to walk to the Mayfair, The Columns, Milan Lounge, Cafe Banquette, Superior ( formerly Que Sera) Fat Harry’s , The Club, etc was pretty convenient.
January 4th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
Colleen Spillane you perty little thang, you just call me in the newsroom in good ole Nuevo Mexico and I’ll send you a pitcher (as they say in the south) or picture.
Regarding the cracked head on the I-20 overpass (dang that hurt)…ask any of my friends there is DEFINITE permanent damage.
January 4th, 2008 at 9:23 pm
Is Jodie Lowery married?
January 4th, 2008 at 10:01 pm
Hey John, you can ask her directly. jlowery@ktbs.com
January 4th, 2008 at 10:50 pm
Big M, Dude, I know, I lived on St. Marys just off Prytania while a bachelor….what a blast. Too bad the town has fallen so bad. I ended up getting married at the Columns Hotel. We go back to visit all the time as I assume you do. What a great city it was.
January 4th, 2008 at 11:05 pm
I don’t want to reveal anyone’s identity, but Big M and HRB, I think you know each other and don’t know it.
January 4th, 2008 at 11:10 pm
I threw HRB’s bachelor party in the corner suite at the Royal Sonesta. A couple of years later he returned the favor when I got married. I can’t tell you exactly what happened but a good time was had by all and no animals were harmed.

I know quite a few people in here but don’t know it or maybe they don’t know it.. I’m confused now.
January 5th, 2008 at 10:39 am
Well I have no shame. I just go by HRB because Sherri remimded me it was my childhood self-proclaimed nickname….short for HeRB. I am Danny Talley, brother of the now infamous Sherri Talley.
January 5th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
I never have met you unless we bumped into each other in the Big Easy. As to my identity I give Sherri permission to divulge it to you when you guys talk again. I’m having too much fun to give up the Ghost.
January 9th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
This picture is hot.
P.S.-I was one of the one’s working that day.
January 28th, 2008 at 1:05 pm
