re: Did Bobby Jindal’s 2009 Speech destroy his political career?
Posted by DandyPimp on 3/12/24 at 9:29 am
I was very involved with Jindal first (losing) campaign to Blanco when i was in my 20s. It was hard not to be impressed with him as his intelligence and command of even arcane policy was incredible. I really liked the people he had around him in that campaign and enjoyed the insurgent aspect of it....

Thanks for this post. Gone from strong and a little fat to really fat and a little strong over the past 15 yrs.
Is there anyone you recommend that I could work with a coach to implement this? Have always been intimidated by supplements/peptides and would like to talk to an expert that’s helping ...
re: What is your experience with an Audi Q7, a BMW X5 or similar Mercedes?
Posted by DandyPimp on 10/23/23 at 10:45 am
Had the 2019 Q7 and now have the 2023, both with the 3.0 engine. 2019 was the favorite car i've ever owned (transitioned from Yukon). Drove great and loved the tech.
Have not loved the 2023. I do not care for the touch screens. I have experienced a number of issues with the car and can tell t...

As with most threads here there is some good and some ridiculous takes in this thread:
1A) the Saints are not going to relocate anytime soon. Although in the bottom quadrant, they are far from the lowest revenue team in the NFL. Their deal with the State is the envy of many franchises and more ...

Have them come back into campus after the game starts. Pull on to Skip Bertman just pass railroad tracks and across from the football ops building. Did this for the Alabama game last year. I got back to New Orleans before some of my friends that have parking passes were able to get home in BR. R...

Signed up for a couple of programs (Air Canada, Alaska and Singapore) and TR's point above about basically no availability of award flights seems to be proving out. No alliance flights showing on United either.
Likely will just split up with 2 on delta and 2 on united. ...

Amex = 560,000 pts
Chase = 339,000 pts
Best i can find on United is 400k miles round trip for bu...

Trying to figure out the best way to maximize usage of points / miles for a family trip to Japan next summer. Have AMEX & Chase points and pretty significant United and Delta miles built up.
Are there consultants that you can pay a small fee to help generate maximum redemption value?...
