re: Approximately what year do you think Tourism got out of hand in NOLA?
Posted by goofball on 5/13/24 at 2:58 pm
Same thing with almost every decent beach, Mardi Gras, Disney World, stadiums/arenas (NFL stadiums, SEC football stadiums, etc), and other tourism draws. The country's population is more than twice what it was 65 years ago but very few of those places got bigger or grew to accommodate significantly...

High Density Housing, 287,000 square feet of retail proposed for Nicholson Drive in BR.

If you think this seems random, you'd be right....except that this isn't far from where a lot of people are speculating that LSU's new 20,000 seat arena will go up.

DOTD, animal control attempts to recover pig on Government Street I-10 off-ramp

[quote]A pig appeared to be loose on the Government Street I-10 off-ramp Monday morning.
According to traffic cameras, LaDOTD arrived at the scene around 10:30 a.m. and began assisting in recovering the swine.
Police and animal control also responded to the scene, blocking traffic in one lane....

There is a way to report an outage on Entergy's website. I've reported some before, but they never really get repaired. If they do, it takes years to see anything done.
I'm not exaggerating on that either. The overhead lights along the I-110/Airline stack interchange were out for at least a y...

re: Do all Entergy customers lose electricity often or is that just a local thing?
Posted by goofball on 4/29/24 at 7:09 am
Entergy is pretty bad at providing electricity.
They are very good at charging fees and lobbying for public funding to pay for maintenance to their grid. . And they haven’t moved their HQ to Texas yet. So there is that at least. ...

[quote]I don’t even think going north is necessarily “easy.” Scenic Hwy and Plank will both take you out of the city to the north, but to get to either you have to take I-10 to I-110.. which effectively means fighting bridge traffic.

I like that the Silverado ZR2 and Sierra AT4X are the only half ton trucks that offer locking front diffs, but it's just not worth the price and dealer markups IMO. They start at $70k, but are mostly closer to $80k before markups. That's just too expensi...

It’s a Silverado. It’s a good, solid truck if you maintain it well. That model has a G80 locker and some extra skid plates and ground clearance for off roading. But it also has an off road focused (softer) suspension that will limit towing over other Silverado models.
IMO the diesel is the wa...
