lolrus alive! or I HAS 15 MINUTES posted November 6th, 2007 As this blogs stays alive in fits and starts, bear with me as I add a shot of whiskey into its cold empty tank and crank its engine with a story of wistful lolrus. Even better, let Jeff Roedel tell you the story, as he’s a much better writer, and hit all the good parts. I contributed to an article on the lolrus for wikipedia that was deleted after a bit of discussion. Local Baton Rouge free paper, 225 got wind of my gusty rambling, and sent out Jeff for the scoop. This feature (6mb pdf download) is the result.
