1990s Highland Taco Bell

Posted by FatCatLSU on 10/4/23 at 2:11 pm

I was walking out of the Arkansas game with the wife and some friends. We were walking up Highland near the Weinerschnitzel and I remarked how I was amazed that that place had survived but the Taco Bell that was once near there had closed down. I was then subjected to much ridicule and heavy i...

re: Small business advice request: PPP repayment refinance help

Posted by FatCatLSU on 9/8/21 at 9:35 am

No other forgivable expenses. Overhead is very low by design as we are a bit if a seasonal company. Payroll is really our main expense. To be clear, i used this PPP to pay down other, higher interest debt. This was not an additional liability. I had to continue making the loan payments on my equi...

re: Small business advice request: PPP repayment refinance help

Posted by FatCatLSU on 9/7/21 at 8:57 pm

At the time we had no work at all. If I had used it all for forgivable expenses, I’d have had no way to service the debt and would have had to liquidate or surrender my equipment and vehicles and my credit would have been in the crapper. Instead I made payments on the loans and kept everything inta...

Small business advice request: PPP repayment refinance help

Posted by FatCatLSU on 9/7/21 at 12:21 pm

I chose not use all of the proceeds of the PPP on eligible expenses and now have a balance to repay. I understood what I was doing when I did this and it was not a surprise. The repayment period is 9 months starting this month. We are lucky enough to have picked up a large amount of work that is a...

Anyone ever kayak east of Grand Isle?

Posted by FatCatLSU on 2/18/18 at 9:39 pm

I've been fishing in the marsh north of Grand Isle several times but was recently thinking it would be cool to go on a long paddle east into those other barrier islands and maybe even camp on the beach and come back the next day. Google Earth seems to show just some oilfield locations but seems lik...

[quote]I finished up at Flight Academy of New Orleans. I would recommend doing Part 141 training if you didn't grow up around aviation (I did).
