LSUA 75

I joined the Navy,I didn’t really want to be on a ship either. :lol:
I requested the Seabees,was an Equipment Operator.

“no full size spare”
I have a ‘24 Ridgeline,it came with a full size spare tire.

“I am leaning towards a bad actor”
Sounds like it,I’ve read about things like that happening
There was an anesthesiologist in Dallas that was injecting paralytic drugs in IV bags and killing random pts.
Another anesthesiologist in France injected potassium and anesthetic drugs into IV bags,some pts.died.
Some years ago a dialysis nurse in Texas killed some pts.by injecting bleach into their dialysis lines during their treatment.

A really bad case I remember was a male nurse in the north eastern states killed pts in several hospitals in several states.What made that so bad was that pts would die under suspicious circumstances,internal investigation by hospital would implicate him.Rather than involve law enforcement they would fire him,they didn’t want the bad publicity.He would get a job in another hospital and do the same thing.He finally killed a pt at a hospital that did the right thing and contacted police.

Google search came up with a male nurse serial killer,Charles Cullin that was convicted of killing 29 pts,It is believed that he may have killed as many as 400.

There was a time if a kid got appendicitis they usually died.
I got diverticulitis when I was 50,without antibiotics and subsequent surgery I would have died.

“boomers with fat retirement accounts”

Boomer here with a fat retirement account .Want to know how that happened? Me and my wife lived below our means,saved and invested.We weren’t particularly high earners,we were both nurses and pay wasn’t as good as it is now,
For example,my wife has never gone to a nail salon in her life.When her nails are painted she has done it herself.Walmart in Pineville has a nail salon and there are 4 others within 300 yds of said Walmart and they’re all busy.

Fast food places and restaraunts everywhere,too many to count and they’re all busy.Raisan Canes always has a line of people buying their nasty chicken strips.
We bought food or went to a restaraunt maybe once a month,we cooked at home.
Tattoo and vape shops all over and tattooed young people everywhere you look.I saw a young couple last week that had I guess $20,000 in tattoos.Both had full sleeves on both arms and both legs from knees down,
Young people without tattoos seem to be the exception now.

Now that we have fat retirement accounts our current 2 vehicle were $50,000 apiece and paid for but for years we drove cheap and/ or used vehicles like Toyota Corolla’s and Tacoma’s.Went on vacations with 2 kids in a Corolla.
Young couples now with 2 kids have to have a Suburban or Expedition.

We’ve owned several houses,largest was 2500,sq ft ,all with 8 ft ceilings.

When today’s young people are old and broke they’ll be bitching and moaning about how boomers ruined life for them.Will never occur to them it was their spending habits and “wanting to have it all now” mindset is caused them to not have a pot to piss in when they’re retired.

I once had a millennial ask me how much land I owned.It is 140 acres,they asked me who gave it to me.I went off on them,nobody gave it to me,we bought it and paid on it for years.
Had another out to our house on our land and they said “I wish I could have inherited some land.”I wish I could have also.
That’s their mindset,if one accumulated something in life someone must have given it to them or they inherited it.

Piss pour attitude,IMO.

“She was by herself”

Did you hit it ?

My neighbor had it but got over it in a couple of years.
He never had a full blown anaphylactic reaction,he would break out in hives,throat would tighten up and get short of breath.Went to E.R a couple of times not knowing what was happening.

His wife had a couple of Epi-pens,gave one to my wife.Saved my arse,I got stung by a bunch of bumblebees,got home,had anaphylactic reaction and passed out.Wife stuck me with EpiPen and I woke up.Now when I go out working in the woods,bushhogging etc.I carry an EpiPen.

“ They told me maybe penalties etc to break lease/leave before a year clause?”

How much would it cost to break the lease and could you pay it without putting yourself in a serious bind financially ?

Having to stay until April ‘27 with the conditions you describe sounds miserable.
Otherwise get some AirPods with active noise cancellation.

Tampax: High and Tight and Out of Sight.

I have 4 Reconyx cell cameras.I live way out in the country on a gravel road.
I have 2 on the road.1 on either side of my driveway.
Reconyx just came out with a new camera that is insanely cheap compared to what I paid for the ones I have.
$225 for one,$400 for 2.Ordered 1,haven’t activated it yet.
Only camera made in U.S,all the rest are made in China.Have 5 year warranty.They always answer the phone quickly and are very helpful.

They sell battery cable for $10,that’s what I use hooked up to a small 12 volt battery in a ammo box.

I have heard good things about WiseEye cameras,they’re located in B.R.

A good website is TrailCamPro,have reciews of quite a few brands of cameras and a lot of information about game cameras in general
