I believe it did later become Shenanigans.
There was also a Today’s and a Tomorrow’s.
One was on Burbank at Boyd, and the other was off Plank by Choctaw. That one was a little rough.

Don’t see how a Muslim will eat at a place that cooks pork.
One that owned a bunch of grocery stores had a couple hundred head of sheep shipped in from Texas, and the slaughterhouse could not work on pigs at all that day. Eventually, he threatened to stop bringing sheep there if they handled any pigs at all, so they acquiesced. But not really, they did the pigs in secret.

Yeah, Danny could really play snooker. Jam up at nine ball, too, but he rarely plated that.
Speaking of Lambert, did you ever see him on the snooker table? He had one shot I would have lost everything on betting against him. He would place the cue ball at the very edge of the corner pocket and an object ball in the middle of the table on the spot. Shoot and make the object ball in the opposite corner and have the cue ball follow the object ball in the same pocket. Knowing how tight those corner pocket balls were, it seems impossible. He very rarely played, though.

Like Earthmover said, it was on Greenwell Springs. There was also one on Dallas Dr. That’s the one Lindy (owner) usually hung out at and played the very big money games there.
It’s also the one that a disgruntled husband walked in the double doors and popped the offender in the back of the head with a .38. He was sitting at the bar directly in front of the doors with his back to it. I had just left, headed to Greenway about 10-15 minutes earlier, but my buddies were still there. They told me about it when they showed up ar Greenway a few minutes later.

We always called Mugsy’s a kinder, gentler pool hall. For the real pool hall experience you needed to go to Greenway.

Gotta go with grand on this one I assume you’re spending quite a bit on your kitchen remodel, don’t fumble at the goal line with your flooring choice. Go with ceramic, or better yet - porcelain. If your contractor balks, get a new contractor.
LSU got three plays off in the final seven seconds, the last one ending in a touchdown and the “One Second Blues”.
Might be the most fun fishing you’ll ever have.
Sorry, I just realized the date of your question. Didn’t realize it was a year old bump.

It is accurate. I spoke with a BOS member yesterday and he confirmed it. He has also had a conversation with Verge on the matter.
If you don’t have a gutter stretcher, get a short section of the same profile and put it over the existing. Use small sheet metal screws and caulk. Leave about three to four inches overlap.
I remember him begging for somebody to come forward with any information to help find his family. Maybe even in tears. What a POS.

Saw a guy pull out of the Harley place on Siegen and almost immediately ran under the back of a box trailer. He had a helmet on, I saw it rolling down Siegen, with his head still in it.
My question is, why can I get a ticket for not having a seatbelt on in an F250 but motorcycles are ok ?

Southern Showers and it’s not close. Great reputation and highly recommended by tile suppliers. He’s done several for me over the last 20-25 years and never disappointed.

A curbless or roll-in shower is absolutely what you need.
Or (less common) a three-sided shower with a bench that comes all the way out to the edge of the shower opposite the wet wall. You can roll right up to it and slide onto the bench without having to get up.
And plenty of grab bars.
Also a hand-held.
