Here’s what you can do to help New Orleans.

Fred Seibert’s Blog

August 28th, 2010

American FlagI was as distressed as any American when tragedy struck New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. And let’s not even mention the double whammy they faced in the BP oil spill disaster. And, on the fifth anniversary of this manmade disaster, as a country we’re still stuck in the middle of the rebuilding of one of our greatest cities. I know it’s been a hard few years for many Americans, there seem to be disasters every time you turn around, and many of you are short of cash. But, if there’s any small donation you can make, now would be a good time. Even if you’ve already given, this city that’s given us all so much still needs your help.

Many of you know I’m a music fan, and I suppose that’s the filter through which I view New Orleans, so that’s where I make my personal donations. Whether it’s jazz, blues, or popular music, NOLA has been one of the critical seeds of all American musical culture.

Tipitina’s Foundation has made it their mission to build the city back up through the cultural heritage that helped create the city to begin with. They’re helping musicians return to the city (yes, there’s still a substantial population yearning to return) and recreate a semblance of a working life there.

Please donate now. $5 or $5000, or anything in between. It doesn’t matter. Please try and stand up for ourselves. If not you, who else?

“Henchman” Story Outline

Marceline’s Slave Story

Okay, I really thought yesterday’s Dimple Plant post was the end of the “Henchman”-related stuff, but it turns out we never posted the original story outline. As you can see, the writing team - who, I think, then consisted of Pen Ward, Pat McHale, Merriwether Williams, Tim McKeon, and Steve Little - churned out “Marceline’s Slave Story” last May, pre-Lady Gaga. Now that the episode has aired, you can compare and contrast the two for your weekend pleasure.

“Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!” Main Title

Here’s creator Bob Boyle’s old storyboard for the Wubbzy main title sequence. Note how on the older pages you can still see the Wubbzy, Widget and Walden title, one of a few names considered before Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! was settled upon.
