Well we don't import very much beef and the prices today are a result of a long term drought a couple of years ago that had cattlemen thinning their herds. Nothing to do with tariffs but it will be at least a couple of years before prices fall. So, you are wrong on beef. Neither president had much to do with the beef price rise.

It was mainly written from the point of view of people who want brackish water for their business. Forget that the spillway is intended to save New Orleans from a flood, which would be a true disaster. I think the city is more important than the oyster industry.

And the river is starting to silt up just south of the Morganza structure, which could cause the structure there to be overwhelmed and the river change course. The law requires a set flow rate before Morganza can be opened but a few years ago there was a fear that the structure would be topped before the necessary flow rate would be met. Sooner or later one of those engineering marvels will fail.

Both. But it begins with an offensive line that is terrible. It scares me to think that the coaches think there is no one on the bench who might, if given a chance, at least be mediocre. As to the rest of the offense, too many bone headed mistakes, questionable play calls, and hard-headed determination to do something like pound it in from the two when you can't get run to save your life otherwise. Back in 2020 I could not believe how often we saw the other team's receivers running completely free. Now, I can't believe how often the other team's line runs by our linemen, untouched, or pancakes our offensive line.

Your “don’t believe your own eyes attitude” is the trouble with this country. Or is your view clouded by race? One kid is down and the other is trying to hurt him

Maybe next time he gets some help from his backside. A little extra push from may be a safety once their back was initially stopped. But I am sure that over the season those little things will be improved.

I wonder how much of this is going to be about discovery and whether someone else pays the note

Turning into Jackson

That is a tough one to win. You will be fighting the "lucid period" argument and you will need to carry your burden. Good luck.

I believe that to win the championship, a team has to avoid injuries to their key personnel. You have to expect some injuries, just hope that you get lucky and don't lose people you can't easily replace. This LSU team could go a long way if they stay healthy.

Trump has always said things that make people think he speaks before he thinks so his comments should not be a surprise. But when inflation is actually being reduced and a recession is being forecast, perhaps a more measured statement from the fed about future rates should be expected. I think the Trump statement is more about frustration over what seems to be political criticism of his policy. I would add that the fed seems to have been wrong on a lot of forecasts in the last few years and it makes me wonder how much of what they are doing is based on something other than economics.

Been in similar situations. Quit doing family court work after about 20 years of it. Seemed like every case as about lies told by parties and by a lot of the attorneys. Not all the attorneys but enough of them. Had more than one woman who got the hell beat out of her and then within a few weeks dropped the case and reconciled, only to have a worse beating a few months later.
