re: So will people in St. George still have a Baton Rouge address?
Posted by goofball on 5/23/24 at 3:30 pm
They'll have St. George eventually. The Zip is what is usually driving this though.
So there will be a pretty long period of time where both cities will work just fine on stationary, letters, etc.

Eagleston Holly may work. Not perfect columns (more elongated pyramid) but they can fit in narrow spaces and have enough room to underplant. And it will be year round screening since it's a Holly.

To those of you that have a workshop/shed....what would you do differently?
Posted by goofball on 5/23/24 at 1:05 pm
Looking at building one for storage and for a small work station for minor repairs, woodworking, etc. behind our house in south Louisiana.
I was thinking of an 18' wide by 10' deep shed/workshop. That should give me enough space for storage, parking a subcompact tractor, and a small work statio...

Red Lobster is a terrible chain. It may have once been a decent regional restaurant 30-40 years ago (wouldn't know....that was way before my time), but after their massive expansion and several changes in ownership/management....they are pr...

That $142,800 is a drop in the bucket when you consider what we are spending to house them out of state.
There are a lot of restrictions on these facilities. $142,800 is very fair to make sure we get this right and can actually use it. And potentially exploit the excess capacity as a revenue...
re: When will Aldi come to Northeast Louisiana?
Posted by goofball on 5/17/24 at 11:20 am
It's a fine store and pretty clean/efficient from a discount retailer perspective. But it's not really something I'd say I missed. It's like those Amazon retailers or Wal Mart Neighborhood market in scope/size, but slightly cleaner and nicer.
I'm sure that Monroe, West Monroe, and Ruston are on...

It happens but it's not that common now where I am. Not familiar with Austin though. That market is far more dynamic than south Louisiana's metro areas. I am seeing a lot more short term rentals lately in places where there are some tourist attractions, a lot of festivals, or bougie shopping/re...

I know there was zero (or near zero) monetary elbow room in 2020 when they needed to stimulate the economy. That's why they did direct payments.
But to summarize your lengthy post - you are suggesting that we are contributing to specific economic policies and will continue to blur the lines ...
