We will be in Baton Rouge for Christmas and need to get a long run in on the 27th. Does varsity sports have any planned runs that weekend? I need 11 miles and the wife needs to get in 17. Other than the levy or multiple loops around campus I am not sure where to get these in
I really don’t care what suburban mom thinks. Most them are the cause of our problems right now anyway

We’ll hate to bust your bubble but the Catholic Church will often times host seminars and talks with national Catholic guests for a fee. May not be as high and entry cost or be as elaborate with flying entertainers but to say that they do not utilize their spaces for paid events is not accurate.

I tend to agree with others in this that they are using their church space to host an event that ultimately helps them raise funds. Would I attend, no but these churches are not blessed and sacred places of worship that house Saint relics or the Body of Christ as a Catholic Church does and I do not see them as desecrating the building even if they did. They are buildings that can be used as they please.

I suspect he has met with MVB at least once and can probably spend some time with him prior to bowl practice.

We will be in town for Christmas and want to get our kids some grilled oysters, what would be the place to go for seafood and oysters now?
The feds should target the business and the banks that finance them. Hold these entities accountable and the flow of illegal labor will stop.

Not a good series by UGa there. A TD here and bama may take this one with huge momentum shift.
I kind of think he wanted to say “the United States of America g*d da***it”. Not sure if he really has the ability to recognize and stop mid-sentence though.

Sediment indeed does build up in all channels and the river. I never saw it dredged, but they do flush the channels out by opening the gates and reducing flow at the plant. This flushes a great deal of sediment out.


Flushing is literally kicking the can down the road, except there would be no ability to kick the can again once the sediment settles at the next few turns. The structures themselves are by nature increasing the sediment load by reducing the water and the carrying capacity of the river. Both the Core and power plant should have to pay to begin the dredging and getting it cleaned out as the contract, but we all know that won’t happen.
This is just the first step, next she comes out as a lesbian and then runs for mayor.

Texans just shite the bed on this last drive of the half
I think we are a solid team and leap years ahead of previous teams, but also DePaul is not good

I think they are still a long term play, but there have been some positive news from competitors and I think the news of “bubble” had some problem cash out. I may sell some as well in January with the big gains, but will always keep a position as they are just too well run of a company.

Steamboat is great for all of this. Easy shuttle service that will take you from the condos near the lifts to town.
Art imitates life and too often when we think it’s just a movie, there is likely a time where the actions truly happened. This is sick but I will not be surprised if true.

This would bring in the money, but probably not it

Well, I paused the membership and am about ready to just cancel it. I don’t care about YouTube or Disney right now and since LSU sucks, I can find other things to occupy my time. I will probably go back to a service in the new year but I am going to leave them all for the next few months. Will they notice my single drop, probably not but hopefully I am one of thousands of others who are doing the same.
I just don’t see where the money is coming from. We had a budget surplus a few months ago, but I don’t think we have had a surplus since. Any tariff money needs to go to getting us to a surplus and paying down the national debt. I believe the current national debt as a percent of the gdp is close to what we had in WW2, that needs to be closer to 30-35%.

I heard the same about the heavy check, and I also heard that that particular flight was delayed due to maintenance on that particular engine, too


I do not know if it was that engine, but I also heard the flight was delayed ~3 hrs due to engine issues prior to attempting to take off. I don’t know how much pressure they put on the ground crew and flight crew to take off rather than ground the flight for extended maintenance, but people need to lose jobs for this one.
I hate having to go to steaming services to watch games. The multi view function is great from YouTube to alleviate having to flip channels during breaks and halftime, but I still switch. I also rarely sit at watch multiple games on a Saturday as there is just too much other stuff to do, and if espn tries to move everything to their service, it will suck but I may not be watching much more college football. This could be a huge gamble for Disney, but they are locked in to huge tv contracts that may blow up in their face.

They rushed hm and he couldn’t dance around and get the throw to the end zone. More teams need to do that rather than just rush 3
