[quote]Well, the pizza really sucks and is extremely greasy.[/quote] THIS. Went there a month or so after it opened, and by damn that pizza was pure GARBAGE. Doughly, floppy crust, little to no taste in the whole pizza; and yes greasy as hell on top. Never went back. [quote]and bad parking.[/quo...

This whole thread makes me glad my parents have their shite together (and planned for) when it comes to such stuff. Dad is widowed (my step-mom passed away a couple of years ago). His house, worth about $300K, is paid off. My sister and I are the only heirs. Dad recently put a $20K CD for EACH o...
[quote]Jackson Generals were in Tennessee. Formerly known as the West Tenn Diamond Jaxx. Both were in the Southern League.[/quote] Again, wrong Jackson Generals.

[quote]Literally. Shreveport was Texas League, Jackson was Southern League.[/quote] Wrong Jackson Generals, chief. We're talking about the team in Jackson, Mississippi in the 1990s, not the one in Jackson, Tennessee that was done away with when MLB took over MiLB a few years ago.......
[quote]One thing I have heard is the beaches there are different from further west.[/quote] Yep. Water and beaches there are not nearly as pretty as Destin, 30A, Panama City, or Pensacola Beach. Not even as pretty as Gulf Shores or Orange Beach. Muddier, greener water and the sand is not the powd...

Tia Van Kamp was probably the best. I mean, she WAS a model... Couple of others folks didn't mention that I liked; both are famous: [img]https://cdn4.whatculture.com/images/2020/05/ed7f0131c8f2e108-600x338.png[/img] Debra Messing in the "Anti-Dentite/Yada yada" episode. [img]https://i.redd.i...

Wife and I had seen the trailer when we caught Dune 2; we were both interested so we went Friday night. Sort of surprised how empty the theater was. We both enjoyed it a lot ( more than Dune 2, actually, in which we were both a little disappointed). We would nudge each other and whisper at the...

Enjoyed that show quite a bit, never missed an episode (DVRed, of course). They really got the period aspect down pretty well for network TV, which is important for me. Clothing, cars, and of course smoking. Apparently, the ending explanation was VERY different from the UK version-- I actu...

This thread has brought back similar memories for me, but not of Baton Rouge, but Metairie and Biloxi. [i]Very [/i] similar. Growing up in the suburbs of Metairie in the 1970s wasn’t bad at all. Bikes brought us everywhere-- the lakefront’s linear park was always cool to ride to and there always...

So I officially became an old man today...

This actually happened today, and I officially became an old man. I spent a lot of the afternoon replacing a heater/vent/light in the master bathroom upstairs. At one point, I asked my wife where our daughter was. She said that she had gone to the Pelicans playoff game with a friend. I asked if t...
Knew about the book, but did not know this movie existed; was intrigued after reading all the comments from you baws... I found it for free on Plex via Cox Cable and watched it tonight.
