re: Podcasts How many you subscribed to?

I may be one of few here but I mainly listen to music. I listen to people all day talk. Music relaxes me and gives me a break from that.
AT&T is investing $45 million to upgrade its network inside Tiger Stadium

I've noticed my cell reception inside the stadium is way better now than it was five years ago. Things are definitely improving around there.

re: Anyone recommend an internet provider in Baton Rouge?
Posted by Roy Curado on 2/19/26 at 9:34 pm to Cycledude
I am paying $60 for Cox Gigablast. It was 120$ and I told them I was switching to AT&T Fiber for $60 and they matched it so I wouldnt switch.
This is just internet, no cable. I believe my package with cable would be around $150.

When made just right, you get crispy on the outside but chewy bread with what seems to be the perfect amount of condiments ratios.
I just told my wife that our next vacation will have an In-n-Out nearby lol

re: Ridge Wallet

I had a traditional tri fold wallet and I switch to one of these metal pop-style wallets (Andar) this Christmas. I actually just switched back to my tri fold wallet because with all my cards, its 25 grams lighter than an empty Andar wallet.

Above ground pool pump replacement
Posted by Roy Curado on 2/7/26 at 12:56 am
I am not blue collar and not really great with mechanical stuff but I can follow instructions and youtube videos well. The most mechanical things ive ever done was change my break pads and rotors on my truck before.
With that being said, is replacing a 1.5 hp above ground water pump reasonable or are there any challenges I should consider? Decent price range to getting someone out here to deal with it instead?

Why not start your on financial advising firm and be your own boss?

This will build rapport faster than making people sit for 30 mins to hear about some lame BR story.

Very pleased with my Sony Bravia 8 65". I paid 1400 for it 6 months ago so the 75" may be closer to $2k
re: How much pto used in one sitting is too much?
Posted by Roy Curado on 2/2/26 at 4:56 pm to fareplay
I think taking time off is a form of negotiation.
First and foremost, if you have the time and want it, use it. There are some caveats though. If you are in a big project or know one will be due during that time, then maybe schedule your leave around it if you can. If not, just give a big advance notice that you will be taking it so management can plan accordingly.
Request 2 weeks off 1 month before a project that has been know all year is due and place the extra work on other co-workers... not okay.
Request 2 weeks off 6 months before you know a big project is due... okay.
At the end of the day, be considerate when requesting your time off but dont be scared to take it. The business is considerate by giving you time off to begin with. There are many companies and professions that do not offer PTO...

re: looking for crab boiling tips
Posted by Roy Curado on 2/1/26 at 4:18 pm to thecreelymac
If they are already cooked, just boil them any other way you would crabs but only until they are heated.
If I were you, I would just do a pot of boiling water with some liquid crab boil or just steam them for about 5 mins with a bunch of JO's or Old Bay.
