re: It’s about time TM7 retires

Damn Chalmette you sound uniformed.

The 7th Ward borders stretch from the River to the Lake!!

As does all the Downtown Wards!

There are really nice neighborhoods,some good neighborhoods,some ""used to be great & good neighborhoods" & some "BAD""Terrible" neighborhoods!!

Without a doubt there are 6 and 7 figure income families in New Orleans;the 7th Ward has them as well!!!

He lived in the 4th Ward & 5th Ward with his grandparents.

He then lived with an aunt( RN) and uncle(FedEx Delivery Driver or UPS Driver) who supported him 100% including paying for high a** St.Aug tuiton!!

They lived in da East.9th Ward..

They dont fall under the "POOR" tax bracket no matter where they lived/live!!!

Dude just made mistakes like we all have done!

But it wasnt because he didnt have support and went without!!

Also you cant make another human, especially adults, change!

Its great that he changed his life and lifestyle!

It wasnt NOLA that caused his issues in Baton Rouge!

It was him and his dudes living in B.R.

A few of them had a spot on Scenic Hwy right before the tracks @ Chowtaw..

LTK Seafood(Best crawfish in B.R.) and the Vietnamese corner store with the takeout hot breakfast also at that intersection.

Talked with a 4 year bball player from Aug.

He attended Epiphany Elementary School..

He shared the stories about all the blowout summer games against: Saint Robert Bellarmine, St Marks, Our Lady of Prompt Sucker..

Those were my district teams until 7th grade..

I remembered that you dont like me talking about those "Parish" schools!!

Lol

Im overdue for my favorite dish @ Rocky and Carlos....I love their Veal!!!

Also I havent had my breakfast/brunch mimosas @ Charlie's since right before the Pandemic..

Be Cool
