 | Kenner Lunch Spots - Charleaux on 5/18/13 at 12:44 pm
I recently started a new job in Kenner and I am allowed about 30-35 minutes for lunch (starting the moment I order). Only stipulation is that I must stay within the city limits. What are some good spots you guys would recommend?...

| NOLA Indian food - Charleaux on 5/11/13 at 8:39 am
The Curry N Kabob thread has me craving Indian food but didn't want to hijack the other thread. My wife is going out of town for work for a week and since she doesn't care too much for Indian food, I'll take advantage of her being away. What are some of your favorite spots in the NOLA area? ...

My current vacuum appears to be on its way out and the wife and I are looking at buying a new one. Since we purchased our last one, we adopted a couple of dogs that do shed a fair amount of hair and, for that reason, we were discussing the possibility of purchasing a high-end vacuum.

I'm in the championship game of my standard league and I've currently got Roddy White in the WR2 slot. With RG3 likely to start I am seriously debating starting Garcon over him since White has been disappointing the last few weeks. I also have Wayne on the bench but not too confident in him.

Lawrence is a sure bet for an Oscar nomination. Would definitely recommend it once it expands to mor...

I can lock up a playoff spot in my league with a win this week and its making me second guess my WR and flex picks. For the record, I play in a standard league. My options are:

I currently have Brady and Schaub as my QBs in a standard, 6pts all TDs league. This being my first time doing fantasy football, I didn't realize how bad Schaub would be in fantasy. Combined with Brady's slow first 2 weeks, I'm thinking I should be maybe try the waiver list to get a better backup. A...
