 | First credit card advice/suggestions - BamaMan45 on 11/27/12 at 4:22 pm
So I've been reading through this board for the better part of the last week (when time permits) and I've come to the conclusion it's about time I get my first credit card. Besides some cards I got sucked into signing up for years ago (dept stores, though I've never carried a balance on them and hav...

Tocqueville warned that "modern democracy may be adept at inventing new forms of tyranny, because radical equality could lead to the materialism of an expanding bourgeoisie and to the selfishness of individualism. In such conditions "we lose interest in the future of our descendents...and meekly all...

| Tailgating/Parking question - BamaMan45 on 10/31/12 at 10:31 pm
So I normally don't set up to tailgate at LSU because I never have a parking pass and the game has been early enough that I just accept invites to my friends who are tailgating in the area. However, this year I have a parking pass and figured I'd try to make a decent attempt at this since it's a lat...

Born & raised in Baton Rouge. Grandfather was a Bama fan, rest of family liked LSU. I choose wisely, have always despised LSU. Graduated from a school in LA & looking to go back to...

I ran across my PS2 (original case) as well as a ton of old PS1 games, controllers, memory cards & a Gameboy color that I apparently never got around to trading in. Also found a few PS2 games and was considering throwing 2 PS3 games in the mix. I know I'm not gonna get anything for trading this stuf...

I've tried a few other sites (can't remember which at the moment) but generally stick with BB.com or Amazon if they have something I need th...

I'm actually thinking about going back to school for another degree or a masters, so this was a another reason to go since I want to go out of state th...

The scenary was gorgeous too for a movie made in 1973. It was based on real events, which makes it even better IMO. It's probably number 2 on my list of...

Since 1999, Seattle has drafted at least one player from the SEC each year.
22 SEC players have been drafted by...
