Between Lafayette Shooters (NOT Lafayette’s Hooters, you perv) and Rooms To Go.

We are huge fans of this restaurant and the family.

Yes, wine menu needs improving, but they are still in the process of getting their bar area done and in full service.
RIP Coolidge

“Consider the _____”. Absolute classic.
Lunch spots fill up fast. Had some out-of-town friends come through and we wanted to go there, but no availability. Had to eat next door at Julien's Poboys. Still good, but not the Laura's II turkey wing lunch we wanted,

Just ratchet it down to "miffed."

There's nothing you can do about it.

Andy Rooney did a segment on this business practice of paying more and getting less on 60 Minutes about 30 years ago.

Pre-Covid (but not pre-Madonna :lol:) a 40-bottle case of Kirkland water was $1.99 Now it's $3.99. That's double the price. Still a great deal.
I voted yes on all 4. I wanted DOGE and a continuation of millages (not NEW taxes) to continue current projects, esp roads and drainage.

I hate taxes, but I agree to some/most of them. I don't ever get a refund and usually have to write a check for a little more. Don't hate me because I tried to help you.

No kidding? But not surprised :lol:
Jiffy was 4 for $1 back then. Over $1.25 each now.
Seeing this old thread again and looking back to see my post from 11 years ago on page 1. Damn, I've been here too long, but haven't aged a day :lol:

Again, God Bless Ms Thomas, and I'm so glad you guys are putting this cookbook together to memorialize her most generous and heartfelt contribution to our community.

:bow: :usa:

Sequencing.com is where you want to go. Very comprehensive reporting in regard to genetic markers for all organ systems. And, they are committed to your privacy.

edited to add: they don't link you to other people in the database. You won't get contacted by a half-sibling you didn't know you had in Vancouver.

THIS is the way.

I tell them to hold the fruit (comes with 2 fruit add-ins of your choice) to cut down on sugar (even though it is natural sugar),

Just want scoops of protein, and add in greens and fiber.

Yes, anterior approach is the way to go.
You are right on so many levels, but let's dissect this for a minute.

I think boudin stand on its own- I just need a link of boudin, maybe a cold beer. Cheese and bread don't go with


I get it, however the deliciousness of pepperjack cheese boudin balls changed our thinking on this.

bread don't go with


Agree. Boudin king cake and boudin pizza are a no-go for me. Boudin SHOULD stand on it's own.
Since Darla became a grandma last year, she hasn’t posted much here. I don’t know anything else, plus I wouldn’t share her personal things anyway. We have had email exchanges in the past, but it’s been probably 2 yrs.
and Biden (and likely a team of others) wanted to hire an additional 80,000 IRS agents to squeeze every last nickel out of all of us, harass us, keep us in check/ in fear…..like WE are the criminals…..after we pay CPAs and other tax professionals to be by the book. Never forget that. It almost went to that level.
These guys were in Lafayette either Friday or Saturday.
VO2 max is the volume of oxygen your body can consume at the level of working tissues per kg of body weight per minute. This is not to be confused with the amount of air your lungs can inhale.

The more oxygen your body can use, the more in-shape you are, the more tuned up your enzyme and energy producing systems are.
