re: Cities outside Louisiana that remind you of New Orleans

Savannah: if only they hadn't surrounded their magnificent historic district with three housing project, one for each of the land sides of the district; the fourth side has shops etc. and the waterfront.
Their air quality is better: lots of spanish moss.
To get tickets for their equivalent o fLe Petite, we had to ring the door bell and someone came to unlock the door. Saftey first, don't you know.
SCAD is a different level of pretentiousness than Tulane.
We looked hard at Savannah and decided it wouldn't have been a step up from NOLA and our home in the Quarter.

Who has legal and medical power of attorney? maybe have that conversation and suggest that you have his and he has yours.
Sometimes you won't even need that (in small towns) With my Mom, I was listed with all the places she'd pay bills monthly and the understanding was that she was failing (no dementia but her body wasn't doing well) and if a bill wasn't paid, they'd contact me by phone and I'd cover it by credit card/ I was an only child and my Father had died six months earlier and I lived in Texas. a far piece from home in Virginia.
A friend found that his stepmother who had been hitting him up for money because she was so poor....well, she was sending money every month to anyone who asked for it, and they did, every month.

I don't speak dog, nor do I speak the pug-ese dialect. How did your pug tell you that he/she wanted to walk with another dog and you? Maybe he/she would have preferred to sit at home in his/her favorite sunbeam and scoot over when he/she had munchies.
re: Ideas: best or most memorable wedding gift you received
Posted by real turf fan on 4/13/26 at 9:46 am to OweO
I did marry a man and going on forty years later we are still happily married.
You do realize some of us have friends who are women and other friends who are men.
eta: I guess I need to add that I am a woman, have always been a woman, and the only surgery I've ever had was removal of two wisdom teeth.

One of my Houston friends took my pat cat into his house for the three weeks I was gone on our honeymoon in the far East. He wasn't even a cat person. But after living with a pretty decent animal, he adopted a stray because his house felt empty without a pet.
re: Any recommendations for tire sensor replacement in Baton Rouge?
Posted by real turf fan on 4/12/26 at 12:44 pm to bigpetedatiga
In Knoxville TN about five years ago, we took the car to our local car repair place.
Our sensor was ok, but the key word was, "They re-educated it" for $20 and it's been fine ever since.
Maybe call around about re=educating your tire sensors would be worth the effort?+

Lest we forget that ":Fitz" was added to last names to denote bastardy in the time of Henry VIII.
Referring to an important Kennedy as Honey Fitz may have caused that bit of history to be buried for a while.

re: Does your Southern Accent Come and Go?
Posted by real turf fan on 4/11/26 at 11:59 am to deeprig9
My accent was much thicker before I heard myself recorded as a Senior in High School,
I mellowed it. Yankees and Micwesterners still comment on it. I just smile remembering what it once was.
OTOH I can pass for Bavarian because my German accent was learned in that part of Germany.

LSU does not support athletics with taxpayer dollars any more than any other university. LSU football revenue covers all athletics.
So the projected income will cover Kiffin's thirteen fricking million each year as well as his expenses, etc. with money to spare for women's gymnastics, etc. As well as pay all of Kiffin's staff their inflated salaries and expenses. As well as pay all the players in all the sports because they all expect to be the best paid stars.
When will the true bottom lines on the financials leak out? Probably when someone earning 42K a year and parking miles from where he or she works gets tired of seeing the waste.
When a can of Coke costs a dollar elsewhere, but LSU pays $6 for a can and expects it to taste that much better.
