A little surprised the fire departments put out a social media post on this. Figured it was common knowledge this time of year


Not everyone in the BR area grew up around cane fields. New students and residents move in regularly and may be puzzled by all the smoke and ash.

This has the feel of a game where LSU does zero halftime adjustment, then doesn’t score again until garbage time in the 4th quarter.

Ole Martie was a dual threat.
This made me wonder if there is a Girl Scout equivalent of Eagle.

Google AI says it is called the Gold Award.

I’ve literally never heard of a gal earning a Gold Award.

TD Houston and literally nobody cares


Made me think of this truly. He cared:

"I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith, as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run. And so that'll make it a 4-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'm going to be putting on this headset again..."

Looks like they burned a TV timeout to talk to Lane. Nothing was happening on the field for the first couple of minutes.

I don't understand letting Berry run one good run then yanking him for Durham


I’ve been screaming about this all season. It’s happened on repeat, week after week.

On that return, I was yelling, “Get out of his way. He’s Honey Badgering!”

Special Teams got one.

Now Defense needs to score!

What did ever happen with paper grocery bags?


Whole Foods has damn nice paper bags with handles that are good enough to use as luggage. And they are free (at least at my local store).

True. The cool kids are more into anthracite related items.

Can we please get eagle rare and Blanton back on the shelves. Also back at MSRP pricing please.


Just bought two bottles of Eagle Rare in a Shreveport grocery store’s adjacent liquor store for like $53 each. First I’ve run across in a while.

Blantons cases were stacked just inside the door of Thrifty Liquor on Youree a couple weeks ago. I got a bottle. I think it was about $75 or so.

I don’t get how this was a negotiating point. They’re buying your company for $1.7B - what you do with the $1.7B is typically not something the buyer would have control over.

. Anyone here on tOT able to explain why this needed to be stipulated?


The Wall Street Journal article, which the NY Post summarized, said this about having the buyer pay the bonuses:

quote:

Discussing the idea with tax experts and others, Walker realized he could maximize the payouts if they came from an acquirer, rather than his family, to avoid having the money taxed twice. Plus, if the family paid the bonuses, it would be harder to require staffers to stick around for several years. That was something Walker believed was important to ensure a successful transition to new ownership.

Netflix show “A Man on the Inside


Pretty good little comedy/drama series. I’ve watched just season one, but so far, so good. 30 minute episodes are a plus.
