Happiness Loves Company.

I am sitting on my front porch as I write this. You should join me. Who can put a price on the simple pleasures of a New Orleans day? Slow down. Unwind. Everything works out, one way or another.

Life is full of perplexing, persistent questions and predictable, petty disappointments. You are not alone.

I don’t meet many philosophers as I go about my day. I do meet a lot of unsatisfied people. I know why the caged bird sings.

There are no strangers, only friends we haven’t yet met. Wanna talk? I have time. You have a friend in New Orleans.

Porchside Chats.

$30

It’s Mr. King’s neighborhood. Join me on the front porch and watch New Orleans go by on Esplanade Avenue. This is a beautiful street. We live in a beautiful city. Life is beautiful. Relax. We can talk about anything you want.

Go For a Walk.

$45

Get out of your head. Look around. Life is good. Come visit me, or I’ll visit you. Let’s walk where you want to and explore what you want. Feel the breeze. Watch the clouds.

Convivial Correspondence.

$20 and $30

Want a pen pal?. For $20 we can exchange emails. What is on your mind. For $30 I will mail you a handwritten letter. Contemplative conversation for the curious.

Schedule an appointment.

I am very flexible. If you have time, I do. Mornings are nicest on my front porch as the children walk to school and people make their sleepy way to work. Here comes the mail lady! The squirrels and the herons in the live oaks keep us company as we solve the world’s problems over a warm cup. We can talk about anything. Esplanade Avenue is a beautiful street. Spend some time.

Thoughts move most easily to the rhythm of feet on the street. We can walk my neighborhood or yours. We can discuss the city or life in general. About an hour of good conversation is what the doctor ordered. You book an hour and a half appointment to give me time to travel, if needed. We live in a city full of details.

Not in New Orleans? Long distance consultations are an option. I am an excellent correspondent. We can discuss anything you like. ANYTHING. Who doesn’t like getting mail? Write me. Regular paper-and-stamp letters or email options available.

Who I Am.

I am a flaneur, a gentleman philosopher, and an armchair historian. I am a businessman, an artist, and a man-about-town. I am a raconteur and a man of leisure. I am usually the best dressed man in the room.

Happiness loves company. Would you like to know its secret?

Good company, good conversation, and goodwill, these are the things that make a good life. What you want, you will achieve. Choose wisely. We should talk about it. You know you want to.

Come over for an hour or so. Have a cup of coffee and a chat. If you have the time, I’ll be here.

Out of town? No worries. I am an excellent pen pal. If you are looking for correspondence, email me. I am a dilettante author with a way with words. We’ll be long-distance friends.

Visiting New Orleans? Experience what it’s like in this wonderful city we call home. There is more to living in New Orleans than Bourbon Street. Get the real intelligence. I’ve got the scoop. Come sit on my front porch like a real New Orleanian.
