I’m a published author. And probably taller than all y’all.

Studies are necessary but 10+ years worth of studies and they still have not picked a location for a new bridge in Baton Rouge is a tad excessive.
I believe this has been a money issue more than a process issue.

Let this be a lesson to those of you who always moan about “studies” and how everything in the U.S. takes so long to build. Yes, the red tape slows shite down but it’s all there because someone, somewhere already learned the hard way what happens when you don’t cover all the bases.
re: Need a large SUV for a family of 6

We’re on 58k miles with a 2019 Suburban LT 5.3L. At the risk of jinxing it, it’s been an amazing vehicle. Great highway MPG as well. I’d hesitate to ditch it for a newer Suburban or Yukon XL which seem to have more problems. If you can find a used 2019 with reasonable mileage I’d jump on it.
re: How is the OT Going to Vote on THRIVE?
Posted by Shorts Guy on 11/10/25 at 7:35 pm to tha real thang
Early voted FOR. It’s not what I would’ve wanted, but it’s one of the first things I’ve ever seen multiple different entities agree to push for. Plus, no votes will F over the library which I’m never in favor of. One of the only things that works right around here.
ETA I hope Coach goes ahead with the layoffs whether it passes or not. Bunch of freeloaders working for CP and adding no value.

Onions were a big no for me until adulthood.

re: We’ve lost the plot RE: food trucks
Posted by Shorts Guy on 11/9/25 at 10:22 pm to Mingo Was His NameO
Agree it’s dumb. In the past, it felt like food trucks were more of a pop-up thing that needed to price competitively to attract customers. Now they are a staple at almost every outdoor event as one of the only food options. So if someone wants to eat while they are at said event, they can either pay a premium or go hungry. Feels like the same thing as airports and sports arenas. You can either pay or be hungry. Sucks.

It’s a huge business these days and they are playing major defense against Ochsner. They are taking their brand and their visibility a lot more seriously now than 10 or 20 years ago when Ochsner wasn’t in the picture in BR. I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t try and get a jump on naming rights just to prevent the competition from doing it first.

Ish. Grew up outside BR and now live in town. Left the area after college. Six states later, we had the opportunity to bring it full circle and come back to the area. Not sure if we’ll stay forever but it would take alot to get me to move again.

It sounds like she can do a lot better. Hopefully she can look back in a year or two from a higher paying job and realize what a massive bullet she dodged.

Yep. And if it was an “important family” that had an issue, joke’s on them. That school won’t be around much longer. IIRC it almost didn’t open for the school year a few years back. Could be thinking of a different one, though.
