[quote]either provide them with shelters or a place away from the general public [/quote] At what point is it the government's job to provide shelter? Why is a drug head more deserving of "free" housing than a man who is a productive member of society? Our faith organizations run a lot of gre...
[quote] I think you could make the argument that LSU would get a few more destination students if you picked it up and put it a nicer place, and in turn, it would see some eventual rise in standards/prestige.[/quote] I completely agree. While LSU has made some strides in the Nicholson area, for e...
Just use Wayz when you're here. The road construction on Jefferson can make Bluebonnet back up quite a bit and it's very hit or miss. Siegen is busy but fast most of the time. ...
[quote]Maybe they've been in BR their whole life and want to be further than just down the road from mom and dad for college. [/quote] How would that be different from any other year? I'm just saying that there's a noticeable uptick in kids choosing to stay in-state but not at LSU. These are good...
[quote]I would bet the majority that go to ULL or tech just didn't get into LSU or with the right scholarship.[/quote] That's possible, but I have noticed a shift in local kids not wanting to go to LSU. Maybe it's just the trendy thing at the moment, but I can tell you a ton of BR kids will be he...
[quote]On the other hand, I generally dislike people with inherited wealth. They earned nothing.[/quote] If you found out today your parents were leaving you millions of dollars, would you decline the offer? ...

re: Why the O-T hate over tattoos?

To each his own, I suppose, but I don't understand the WHY behind them. Dates: Births/deaths/weddings...Can't you just remember them in your brain? Religious symbols: Again, your brain? Do you really need a cross etched into your chest to know that you're a Christian? Picture of your ch...

re: The female happiness paradox

[quote]So, to recap; women who want happiness will submit, prompting men to focus on providing the emotional security to said woman, and everyone ends up stronger and happier. [/quote] You explained this so well. As I've said on here before, progressive feminism has wrecked the modern family. T...
[quote] People who send their kids to private school care more about their children’s education than public school. When you have real skin in the game you want results. [/quote] Exactly. It's precisely why private schools work. They don't have better teachers, textbooks, facilities, etc. They ha...

[quote]I'm sure your boss got rid of a productive model employee because they arbitrarily just didn't like you. [/quote] I've had one of these, and I've never even sniffed at being fired. In a nutshell...I answered directly to this lady, but her boss hired me. Her boss LOVED me. I mean teacher's ...

re: Ideas to use home grown herbs

Posted by HouseMom on 4/7/24 at 11:59 am
Sage, oregano, and thyme are great in a roasted chicken. Just tie them up and put in the cavity. You can make herb infused butter for steaks or fish. Mint is obviously the star of a mojito if that's your thing. Also, get a pitcher of water and put fresh mint, a lemon sliced up, and maybe som...
There is a definite correlation. Friends who have divorced almost always have one spouse who is a product of divorce. I always thought it happens because these people haven't had the benefit of observing a functioning marriage up close. If you grow up thinking marriage doesn't mean much, it usua...
[quote]Let me ask you something jake88, do you think ebt recipients should be forced to go to govt run cafeterias for their food? [/quote] 100%. Why should EBT recipients get to shop at Whole Foods and Fresh Market with my tax dollars? These are places I shop sparingly due to the cost. You don't ...
[quote]Would something like that make them a Student or just an Online Student? Should they distinguish that? [/quote] In the technical sense, an on-line student is a student, and the degree is the same. In no measurable way would the on-line student have the same life experience with a universit...
[quote]My argument is that in many roles, it’s management’s job to instill ownership so that the employee avoids these situations in the first place. Good people will try to make sure these loose ends are tied up before they leave, or hand them off accordingly.[/quote] This truly is very job-spec...

Has anyone spent the night at your house? Have you hired a babysitter? Bought clothes from Good Will?...
One doesn't seem more likely that the other. Just pointing out that we have no idea why she decided to get in the car with them. ETA... I would think that if she planned to "go home" with one of the guys, she would have walked out with the group. They were half way to the car by the time she ran...
Agreed. I'm just seeing a lot of "she clearly wanted to hook up" and just wondering where that's coming from. Girls can hang all over a guy in a bar and not actually have plans with them beyond that. ...
[quote]Asked the others 1 more chance and they claimed they didn't jerk us around and if it comes down to dollars then so be it. So I replied "Not getting jerked around Fee - $1500" to one of them.[/quote] Why on earth would another dealership have to give you the same price another one offered y...
[quote]Based on what we’ve seen to-date, I think she probably did intend to go home with the juvenile defendant[/quote] She definitely ran to catch up with them, but who knows why she went. They could have offered her a ride home, said they were going to a party, to get food, get her drugs, anyth...
