Two of my great aunts (Grandmother's sisters), whose parents were from Sicily, met their husbands at the POW camps right after the war. When the war ended, the local Italians in New Orleans would host parties for the Italian POWs. My great aunts met my eventual great uncles (Italian POWs) at a POW party. The uncles were shipped back to the Italy before they were married. My Aunts, two years later, after writing letters every day to their boy friends back in Italy, jumped on a ship to Italy to marry my uncles. Eventually, they all moved back to NOLA and lived happily ever after.

Yeah, I know he doesn't get a PG since he didn't face all 27 batters, i just didn't know if he maybe also walked someone and then they got him out on like a double play ball.
Correct. He did not walk anyone. He was perfect for the 26 batters he faced.
quote:
So he lost out on a perfect game because he didn't start and Ruth walked 1? Or did someone else get on base too during that game and they got them out?
It was ruled a combined no hitter and not a perfect game because of the walk. But yes, the guy that took over the game essentially threw a perfect game but only got credit for a combined no hitter. One of those odd baseball rules.

What limits did you get? 15/30? Did you also get UM coverage?

16 years here. And yes, looking at the bar exam just reinforces how un-practical the test is.
I plan to take the exam in February 2026. So I guess no point in doing that section now. But Mississippi releases information saying the topic for the essay? When does that get released?

Since I started in March, I’ve now reached the part where they’re going over Mississippi specific law. The problem is, Mississippi hasn’t yet released what their essays will be on. Conceivably, I’m learning irrelevant law.

Is Barbri telling you what areas to focus on and not focus on?
Are you taking online courses or just studying the materials?

suck it up and pay for barbri
Yeah, I'm trying to decide if I should do Barbri or Kaplan (or one of the many other services I am finding online).
redstickrick - Did you take Barbri?
Kingbob - Did you take the Barbri online classes?
If so, were they good with telling you what is normally asked on the exam? I took the Louisiana Barbri many years ago (and passed the bar) and I remember the teacher mostly telling us what is and isn't on the exam.

Great post by them. I’ve been wanting to rewatch the whole inning!

There’s no invoice generated yet, but you can see the cost and the first payment is due on 3/14. My tix went up around 7.5%.
7.5% total increase or for each game? Essentially, are you paying more this season and have one less home game?

Don't know if this is true, false, and slightly embellished but it was before any political influence would have entered the telling so take it for what it's worth.
Adajax, the story is true. It was confirmed on like season 2 or 3 of The Apprentice.

Jazz Fest Tickets - Sold at Smoothie King Center?
Posted by Tyghas on 2/29/24 at 10:58 am
Does the Smoothie King Center still sell the Jazz Fest tickets? I recall in the past you could go there and not have to pay all the online fees.
If not there, is there another location?
