re: Post your corona virus travel deals here
Posted by mmiller52 on 3/14/20 at 12:29 am
I got a 5 day from Nola to Cozumel and Progreso, on Carnival, May 4-9, single occupancy, for about $275 plus port fees! Your deal is a bit cheaper but I live in Nola. My school and work are both virtual and that’s after the 4-6 week window of shutdowns they announced today. ¯\_(?)_/¯ gotta find the...

re: Which should I pay off?
Posted by mmiller52 on 2/24/20 at 5:56 pm
It may be helpful to clarify for the board what your goal is in this decision.
If you’re asking simply about savings related to interest expenses, you can calculate how much interest will accrue on each separate debt in the time frame until it’s paid off.
If you can comfortably pay off the p...
re: Tandem floats that require generators allowed back in Mardi Gras 2020 parades, NOPD says

There’s an argument in all this to revive the flambeaux. That’s how all these years went by without people running up to the floats. When a man strolls by with a flaming torch, you step the frick back. ...

[quote]For the sake of argument[/quote]
Endymion’s expenses exceed their revenue and it’s a part-time gig for their officers. IJS it’s not an apples-to-apples comparison.
Julie made Nyx her full time job and dedicates herself to growing the organization and the footprint on the city.
