re: Help: I need a grandfather name
Posted by fearneaux1 on 2/9/24 at 9:00 am
I wanted to be called Pop also. As my grandson started to make sounds I was constantly trying to get him to say PPPop.
When he was ready, he tried so hard to say Pop, but his P's came out as B's. So instead of Pop...it was Bob. And it was so precious I have been renamed Bob.
All my family ca...

re: World's Most Expensive Coffee - WYDI?
Posted by fearneaux1 on 11/3/22 at 6:46 pm
I've had it while living in China and certainly not the worst coffee I've ever had. Now working in Africa and I can tell you that tastes like what you think the Civet coffee would taste like.
Luckily i work with good folks from civilized coffee producing countries and there is always a good vari...

Interesting. Today the high was 105, unusually low for this time of the year. In past years it's been 120-130 and sometimes 145+...

Wharf Repair
Posted by fearneaux1 on 3/22/22 at 4:42 am
In the process of purchasing a camp on a lake. Roughly 120 ft wharf with covered deck and boat lift. Deck and lift appear new and in great shape. Need to replace about half of 4x4 pilings on wharf. Whats the easiest DIY method.
I recall as a teenager working for a farmer who had a house on the la...
re: Is it OK to fly a flag used for a funeral?
Posted by fearneaux1 on 7/25/21 at 7:52 pm
A couple years ago I put up a 30' flagpole, complete with low voltage lighting so I could leave it out all night. My neighbor would tell me how much he enjoys seeing my flag wave. I change the flag every year. A couple months ago he asked me if I would mind flying the flag that was on his uncle's ca...

Will be end of August before I can get home....
re: Mosquito systems
Posted by fearneaux1 on 5/3/20 at 8:23 am
You're welcome. Probably the only drawback is the drum on the patio, but it has a cover and it's tucked away in the corner and you never really notice it.
Good Luck!...
re: Mosquito systems
Posted by fearneaux1 on 5/3/20 at 8:00 am
None at all. We have dogs that stay inside at night and at least one outside all day. We only have to pick up the food and water bowl in the evening and after is sprays in the morning,
We also have birds and a Vitex tree that attracts many butterflys when in bloom, no problems at all the still co...

I have the Mist Away System and we love it. Live in southern part of the state, below I-10 and they get pretty bad here.
Unit comes on twice a day about 15 seconds each. Have a fenced area behind the house for the dogs 80 x 20, but more property beyond the fence. If you walk out the fenced area ...
re: Would you travel internationally if your boss asked you to this week?
Posted by fearneaux1 on 3/7/20 at 6:08 pm
Travel international every month, doesn't bother me a bit. Worked in China during the swine flu and it was no big deal other than had to have temperature taken before debarcation.
Work in Africa now with layover in Germany and Spain, coworkers from Italy and China have been forbidden to travel to...

I've been travelling international every month for the past 15 years and can honestly say I have never had an issue with any type of medicine i had on me.
I've been all over from Far East, Near East, Middle East, Africa and all over Europe.
Where are you going?...
re: Louisiana Governor's debate at UL-L in game thread
Posted by fearneaux1 on 9/26/19 at 7:10 pm
John Bel actually did a good job in the debate, not that I would vote for him, but he did come across more intelligent and informed compared to Ralph.
As you said, you don't live here anymore, but you call all of us idiots. You don't have a dog in this fight so what are you after???...

[quote]In the two polls since Lyin' Eddie went negative JBE jumped up to 46% and the undecided vote jumped 12%. 48% of those undecided voters said they were leaning toward JBE. That poll only dealt with the primary. (0.46 + (0.12 * 0.48)) * 100% = 51.76%. That poll also had a 4.2% MOE which puts HBE...

Mistaway!!
I just had a unit installed last month. I work overseas and they installed it the day after I left. Wife is thoroughly impressed.
It's a little pricey and would have loved to try the DIY option but I'm only home half the time....
re: Let’s talk about Eastern Europe
Posted by fearneaux1 on 6/9/18 at 10:32 am
Hate to burst your bubble Mr. Personality but you are wrong. Romanians most definitely consider themselves Eastern European and it has nothing to do with Communism.
I saw this thread and decided to present the question to the 5 Romanian nationals that I have working for me, it was unanimous, they...
