He has been in Gonzales for a couple of years but has spent his whole priesthood before up north (dakotas maybe).

He seemed like an OK guy but with some health problems. I enjoyed his homilies but wasn’t involved at that parish. If I recall, he grew up in Baton Rouge but moved away for college and became a priest. His aging local family and a shortage of priests in Baton Rouge, were reasons for him to transfer down.

With limited ties to the area, I think someone convinced him early that the change was needed and for better or worse, he has hitched himself up to that side.

I was very pleased when my kid was in catholic school where the church and school really teamed up for a good experience. Great priest and great lay people are key to a good community. Alas there always seems to be infighting and personal politics at some point.

One huge step in the right direction would be to separate catastrophic coverage for major procedures and diseases from coverage to see a primary care doc and get basic medications.

The two unavoidable things that skew the cost of healthcare are old people and sick people. We have a plan for old people, Medicare. We have no plan for really sick people.

If Medicare or something similar could step in a pay for certain illnesses and procedures, the remaining cost would be more manageable for everyone and insurance would be more affordable and dynamic.

What caused the person to fall?

Not a lawyer… but liability needs 3 things.
1. Some duty of care owed to the other person.
2. A failure or breach of that duty
3. Injury or damages caused by the breach or failure.

If some trips over their own feet and hits a regular old table, how is it the fault of the homeowner? On the other hand, if said homeowner left banana peels on the floor and you fell on his game of thrones sword table, you might be looking at a suit.

Not a lawyer either but as I understand it, Louisiana tradition was more statute driven whereas other states leaned heavier on common law and court precedent.

Over the decades, Louisiana has built up more case law and other jurisdictions have codified more into laws. Consequently, we are not as far apart as we once were.

I heard Chumlee had gone down hill.

Get with your agent first a better explanation, but from what I’ve heard, State Farm is offering a new endorsement where they will not argue about repairing versus replacing the entire roof. Any damage and you get a new roof. I am sure there is some fine print, including the current age of the roof. They are also only offering this at renewal.

Again talk to your agent as I am not an agent nor a customer of theirs.
