re: Coach O - Killing Me

Lost my father to it - the decline was rapid and quick. It will take a fully healthy adult and begin organ failure before you know it. Prayers if he is / was going through that. It takes a long time.
Majority of companies with safety departments or within sectors with relationships to O&G, Petrochemical, or large capacity venues have been doing this as a safety requirement for years.

Easy to see the logic - people are usually rushing or in a hurry to leave a place, so it makes it easier to see/navigate when you leave.

I still do it today unless I'm unloading luggage at the airport.

These were fun to re-watch, great post
I wonder if she called from her golf-cart at the HOA meeting.
People still listen to this guy? Has been an embarrassment since I was a student.
ESPN once specifically protected itself against losing LSU

An old SEC–ESPN media contract that became public through litigation actually listed the essential SEC schools by name ( including LSU) and provided that if one of them ceased being available, ESPN's rights fees could be reduced by 10%. If two or more disappeared, ESPN had even stronger remedies, including potential termination.

This was back in the mid-1990s. I would imagine given LSU's 7th highest TV viewership (probably higher now) - there would be a major clawback.

Exactly this... while LSU is in the light and taking the heat, there's nearly 20 schools that have either had a player join within the questionable circumstances and/or solicited those players to join their teams - across a dozen sports.

She is very poised - I appreciated her engagement on this issue.
Basically you know more than someone making $4.8 million/yr to know these types of things.
I was in airports and on several flights yesterday, I really appreciate all your work/effort. It was fun to hit "refresh" every so often between movies. :geauxtigers:
Same - I've swapped to internet purchases. Mostly out of Texas and pay to get them shipped. The price has been the same eitherway; more options out of Texas.

Bowers and Ross Downing are terrible. Worse customer service I've ever had at Downing, and Bowers isnt far from it.

I wish we could just order a car online direct from the manufacture for all automakers.

I dont know about those situations (taking your word on it) - but I know that the stop sign near my house and ones through my neighborhood have become "optional" and we're just one bad accident away from someone being killed. Police come out occasionally, but its still a problem. No way I'd let my kids ride around without me out there seeing them between stops. I dont recall when I was younger there being that many issues. :shrug:

If you're in Louisiana or Mississippi - I would recommend BankPlus - very favorable to a small business / new business and you can call and reach someone with questions. It's got that local feel with some of the IT needs of a larger bank.

Same.

I'll say this for perspective. When I was a young kid, riding my bike, cars on the road (adults) were always mindful and cordial. They would go around or look out for kids on the bikes, because we were all over.

Drivers today run stop signs, text/drive, distracted - its a whole different ball game. Without technology packages in cars, we'd see more and more issues than we already do.

Hard to let my kids to riding around when subdivisions have become speed zones for teens and adults alike.
Just remember we wasted a generational offense and JD5 on a defense that couldn’t break the top 100 …….grounds enough watching that train wreck. Sadly BK was already on borrowed time. Surprised people think this is new?
About a month ago I started putting 401k contributions into a Money Market (Treasury) Fund that is offered by our plan. I max it out each year over the course of each paycheck. I didnt touch the funds I'd been in for over a decade. I just have new cash going into "reserve" for a pull back.

Similar in my IRA to someone above me, exited some growth stocks that were pretty fluffy and went into 50% treasury fund and a few large caps that are more traditional.

Who knows, I've been right way less than I've been wrong! Ha!
No sorry hah - I actually just registered after lurking since I was a student at LSU in the mid 2000s. - I really liked this forum/board for a long time, especially during some rocky times in 2020. :geauxtigers:
