| A Supine Congress and the Imperial Presidency Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 3/28 at 11:15 am Although likely destined for the "tl;dnr" dustbin of the TD poli board, I thought the piece by former Va. Senator Jim Webb (D) was worth bringing to the attention of those who might care. The link is from the National Spectator.

| Lawsuit filed in "Alabama Teabagging" Incident Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 5/4 at 9:07 am I just thought the Rant might be interested to learn that a lawsuit has been filed in New Orleans over the incident. SIAP. Here is the summary from CNS New Orleans:

| Not going to Rodeo ... but going to Grand Isle Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 7/27 at 6:10 pm It just happens to work out for an old friend of mine and me that this coming Saturday is the day we can both make a quick trip to Grand Isle. We are not participating in the rodeo in any way and plan either to surf fish or kayak fish either on Grand Isle itself or Elmer's.
I expect there to be ...Posted on: Outdoor BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| Question regarding camper in Basin Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 5/10 at 4:13 pm Trying to decide whether to go attempt to move a camper I have in the Basin. Presumably, it will flood if I do not but I don't know what kind of condition it is in for moving.
Anyway, it sits on the bank (east side) of Whiskey Bay Pilot Channel. the river typically runs some 20 feet or more b...Posted on: Flood BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| M---F-- Obama flat screwed me on taxes - without changing the tax rates! Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 4/13 at 9:09 am I was very surprised recently to see that my wife and I owed a large (at least for us non-OT'ers) tax bill for 2010. Assumed it was wife's business as paying quarterly can be fraught with pitfalls. Turns out, thought, that 80% of the shortfall was due to changes the Obama administration made in wi...Posted on: Political TalkJump to Post • View Topic |
| Stats and a question on the LSU passing game Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 12/9 at 10:33 am I seldom start a topic, but I would love to see if one of the stats gurus out there could offer something on this:
In looking up some info on LSU's 2010 passing stats (to see passer ratings), I was startled to see that LSU only threw 7 TD passes the entire year. I knew the number was low but I d...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| LSU's 4th down try at end of Auburn game - video request Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 11/4 at 1:46 pm I tried searching for video of the 4th down attempt against Auburn but could only find videos of the crowd going berzerk. To the victor goes the spoils, I suppose ...
Anyway, can any of the amazingly computer literate users of TD link me to video of the play?
Thanks....Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Watching the LSU-Auburn game on a smart phone? Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 10/18 at 11:53 am Does anyone know if this can be done? I am not very "techy" and realize I could get roasted just for asking. If it makes any difference the phone is an HTC EVO model.
Thanks and if I knew all of the preemptive strike acronyms, I would use them now....Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| How do the Tigers call for a snap in shotgun formation? Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 10/5 at 4:27 pm At the end of the TN game, I think everyone would agree that JJ clapped his hands with approximately 4-6 seconds remaining.
Based on what I have seen, the snap does not immediately follow the clap but what DOES determine when the ball is snapped when the Tigers are in shotgun? Some teams use t...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |

| Live bait question - Manhac area Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 9/2 at 11:30 am I plan on trying the canal and areas near/under I-59 and Hwy 51 and was wondering where I could get some live bait. I figure I should be able to have a shot at some bream, bass and maybe some cats, too, and I was thinking I would have one rod rigged up for live bait and one with a spinner or plasti...Posted on: Outdoor BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| The Left LOVES the Tea Party Extremists Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 3/27 at 11:14 am Reading the Times Pic editorial page this week caused me to realize just how much the left loves the Tea Party extremists. They have provided wonderful cover from looking critically at the health care bill. One piece after another criticizes the extremists - only occasionally mentioning that they ...Posted on: Political TalkJump to Post • View Topic |
| Jamey Johnson's live show Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 1/29 at 11:05 am I was vaguely familiar with country singer Jamey Johnson - I'd heard his tune "In Color" and that's about it - and ended up going to see him at Howlin' Wolf because my future brother in law's sister told him that the guy was good. Went to the show with no expectations but the guy put on an outstand...Posted on: O-T LoungeJump to Post • View Topic |

| A quick thank you to the Rant problem solvers ... Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 8/6 at 9:47 am Back during the baseball tournament, I asked about how to get around the Dish Network rules regarding "local channels" so that I could watch the CST broadcasts at my camp. Can't recall who offered the advice but it worked like a charm and had the added effect of giving me an NBC channel that I was ...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Cox Sports on Dish Network Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 5/27 at 8:47 am I just had a Dish Network rep tell me that Breaux Bridge, La. (where my little camp is considered to be) is not in the "viewing area" for Cox Sports such that I cannot get it on my satellite at my camp. What the hell? Anybody know a way to get around this stupid crap?...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Guy Clark's Jazz Fest Set Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 5/4 at 2:48 pm Anybody else make it over to the Fais Do Do Stage for this legendary singer/songwriter? It was my first time seeing him live although I have owned albums of his at different times over the years. He fumbled "The Cape" (I think that's the title) but was excellent thereafter and even the miscue was ...Posted on: O-T LoungeJump to Post • View Topic |
| LSU's running game Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 9/22 at 9:19 am Specifically with respect to the gashing runs that Scott had through what I think was the guard-center gap, has anyone looked at it enough to see which OL were doing the best work to spring Scott?
On a number of other plays, I was really impressed with Auburn's Senderrick (sp?) Marks, so I figure...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| SECCG reply - LSU 21, TN 14 Posted by N.O. via West-Cal on 8/25 at 9:39 am First, I had forgotten how strange that game was. Weird leadup to the game with Miles announcing that he is not going to Michigan and also odd in the way it played out. LSU racks up 450 yards - with a nice pass/run balance - and can only manage 13 offensive points? A really nice defensive effort ...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
