I have lived in BR for many years but after moving away for 6 years, I came home and realized that I didn't have many "good" friends left. You know, the kind that are ready to go try a new or fun restaurant or have a BBQ at the house. After having experienced a couple other Meetup groups, I decided it was time for me to do it myself. I have often been termed "the life of the party" so I am looking for some people who want to laugh until it hurts and share good times with their fellow neighbors! …

I also like to spend time talking with interesting, congenial people about the books I read.  And quite often, it is a lot of fun to pursue these conversations with a drink in hand. I'm not saying we should get plastered, but let's relax in a gracious New Orleans setting, knock back a few, and discuss books that matter. Books we've read: American Gods, The Movie Goer, The Awakening, The Tragedy of Arthur, Quiet Houses, Nine Lives, The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox, The Sens …

If you're new to town, been around a while and simply don't get out enou …
