re: Replacing rotten posts in overgrown fence line

And a PTO-driven auger should be plenty to cut through tallow tree roots, but I’m not sure about grinding the fence posts. Never tried that. ...

I’d try a chain and a front end loader to pull them up, and if that fails, chainsaw them at the ground. Place the new fence posts right in the middle of the existing ones. I’m slowly refencing a whole pasture of old barb wire fence myself and will be replacing all the wooden posts within the ne...

Inflated prices and crazy high interest rates are running people off. 7.99% on a 75k truck, even at 84 months, is a big ol note. ...

Learn how to live lean, make sacrifices, and make sure you’re comfortable having tough conversations and firing people because managing people is the toughest part. But it’s overly rewarding when it works out. ...

I saw him a couple years ago and really enjoyed him. He’s like a less talented Stapleton to me. Couldn’t make Fridays show though. ...

re: Who’s buying a new truck this month and what prices and financing numbers are you getting?

Posted by Slickback on 3/18/24 at 8:42 am

Bought a Sierra last week. They offered $7k in incentives or 2.79% for up to 72mos. I went with the $7k in incentives and financed at 7.79%. I’ll refi this week to my CU at 4.99%. Only financed a small portion so it made sense. ...

re: I was asked to leave the hunting club for not violating any rules

Posted by Slickback on 2/12/24 at 8:13 am

Can’t imagine hunting in a place or with people who get mad at you for shooting a deer. Killing a good buck should be a celebration…not puckering up and worrying if the main beam is 22” or 21 3/4” or whatever bullshite arbitrary rule you have to decipher in the heat of the moment. ...

re: Turnpike.. Baton Rouge

Posted by Slickback on 2/6/24 at 9:40 am

Agreed. I think they saw what Zach Bryan and Childers were doing and thought they could match their popularity. I like TT more than both, but they don’t have the fans like either of those. ...

If you think the homeowners insurance market in Louisiana is in crisis mode, the commercial auto market is even worse. Only way a lot of companies can get insurance is if they install in/out facing cameras and trackers. ...

They got greedy with ticket prices. I’m as big a TT fan as anyone and go to 1-2 concerts a month and I bowed out of that one after seeing the ticket prices. Saw a couple in the River Center and the sound was bad too. ...
