Once upon a time, New Orleans was a wonderful place to visit,and probably to live. My first visit to NO was in 1974, when I started working in BR after graduate school.
NO now? E. A. Poe summed it up: "Quoth the Raven: NEVER MORE!"

Right where we live - The Villages, Florida. Moved here after we both retired 18 years ago, and haven't looked back.

I've agree with almost all of your comments on the board, but I have to ask if you have data to substantiate this claim?

re: How many hours/days a week a day do you watch the news?
Posted by OmniPundit on 4/11/23 at 11:40 am to Billy Blanks
For me, listening to the news while showering, shaving, and preparing/eating breakfast or dinner is much more descriptive of what I usually do than watching the news.
If there is something like the shootings yesterday, than I usually actually watch the news.

re: What's the best selling car the year you graduated high school?

1956 Ford. Would you believe everyone'z favorite colors for everything (cars, clothes, etc.) was pink and charcoal?
All l could do about either vehicles or clothes was drool, while wearing jeans and driving a pre-WWII 1939 Dodge pickup.

Complaints? Most of the first month in Vietnam (March 1965) food was C-rations. Finally got our battery mess hall open; B rations for seamed like forever. No special meals; as battery commander, I ate the same food as the rest off the battery. I promise you, what they are complaining about is much better than B rations.

I've drove it one time. My father died in Russellville Alabama in 1979. I took the Trace home to Baton Rouge 44 years ago.

The war was over and there was massive economic growth. Very little societal turmoil. Huge advances in technology. Sounds like such a great time.
It actually was. I finished high school in 1956, at a small town in North Alabama. There were 96 of us in my senior class; very few of us are still alive.

To enjoy my fiends and neighbors. Walk, play a little golf, and go to the fitness centers here in The Villages. I'll continue to read TD, and post occasionally.
In general, I'm still way too young to shut it down; I'm only 84 1/2.
