re: Fox just said Biden has 565 staffers with a payroll of $61,000,000. Average of $107,964

Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 7/6/24 at 1:45 pm

It takes a lot of idiots to clean up that much spontaneous defecation. Lots of wiping, deodorizing, pant and Depends changing, lots of germ filled, humiliating work but at $107,000 a year apparently 565 people are willing to make that sacrifice....

re: Gentrified NOLA neighborhood close to FQ or Upper Middle Class Shreveport neighborhood

Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 7/6/24 at 1:38 pm

I’ve lived south of New Orleans but it was pre-Katrina and still a relatively safe and attractive place to live near and visit often, it not that anymore and I don’t go there anymore. We never planned to move back to Shreveport but due to job transfer we are there and after deciding to not build in...

I had problems for years, it started mainly because I was wearing slip on Redwing boots in sticky mud at work and tore my plantar fascia. Tried all kind of stuff and finally found HOKA Bondi shoes, got them a size too big and put a pair of Softsoles from Academy in them. Got HOKA Recovery slip-ons...

re: New Tahoe first oil change interval?

Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 6/30/24 at 10:22 am

I ran my Suburban and Silverado till the “change oil soon” light showed on the display, change oil is set for 7500 miles and the change oil soon will come on about 700-1000 miles before that. I’ve used Mobil 1 in all my GM vehicles and have never had an engine problem. 2008 Avalanche had 242,700 mil...

re: People the grew up during the Louisiana Oil Boom in the 1970/1980s, what was that like?

Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 6/28/24 at 11:01 pm

Plaquemine Parish was booming at that time, I had in-laws that lived there and worked production platforms in the gulf and I moved to Buras my first summer out of high school to get a job. Had zero experience but there was an old motel called Sheffield’s and if you wanted to work you just sat outsi...

re: Chevron Overruled

Posted by HighlyFavoredTiger on 6/28/24 at 12:44 pm

This is a great ruling but unfortunately it’s way late, it’s about 400 power plant shut downs too late. I don’t know of a government organization that has used its overreach to do more harm to the average working person than the EPA. They have cost American citizens billions of dollars with random,...

Looks like the brass was annealed and not tumbled before loading, probably skipped a step to save on production costs. Should be fine to shoot and good brass for reloading. ...

I think you pretty much already have a feeling where this is headed so I’d say see an attorney and start the process yourself. Right now you need to protect yourself, your kids and your credit.

If a complete stranger or a company from Texas that was previously unknown to you just randomly showed up asking to buy your land that wasn’t even for sale, you can bet that they know something about the future use of your land that you don’t yet know. This kind of stuff happened all over DeSoto pa...
