It's a poorly managed state. Poor education as well.

FWIW I love Louisiana but I'm a Texican.


Good news. Louisiana is looking up when it comes to education.

"Louisiana is the only state to surpass pre-pandemic levels in both reading and math,
according to a new report from Harvard, Stanford, and Dartmouth

BATON ROUGE, La. — Louisiana continues to lead the nation in academic improvement, according to the latest Education Scorecard released today by researchers from Harvard University, Stanford University, and Dartmouth College. The 2026 report shows Louisiana ranks first among states in reading growth and second among states in math. Louisiana is the only state where average student performance has surpassed 2019 levels in both reading and math."

Wear the overalls. They are roomy and you can stick a dictionary in them, which you obviously need very badly.

To be fair, it goes nicely with the WW2 stuff that GenX kids were given by our WW2 vet grandfathers.
Married the right person and bought our retirement home ( a camp on the water), paid it off in 5 years and retired early. Life has been so good since we made that leap.

No mortgage, no car note, no debt.
Beware men, your wife might be like Amy Earnhardt. I think Dale Jr definitely hit the lotto with marrying Amy.

We live on the river and sometimes see otters. Sitting on the porch and seeing an otter is one of the best ways to start a day at the camp.

But then again, just about any day at the camp is a good one.
Im sitting on the porch with a bowl, watching the river roll on by. Will not be setting myself on fire and jumping in though.

Which is why she would make a terrible wife.
Who wants to argue with someone who remembers EVERYTHING!
I like Dale Jrs podcast. I randomly came across the one where Dale and his brother Kerry met for the first time and retold tales of their lives and their relationship with their family. It was a very interesting podcast and the boys were truly funny together in their telling of the tales. LINK

Also the Dale podcast with his dads best friend Hank. That one was amazing as well. Hank knew Dales heart and was able to share some of that with Dale Jr. LINK

Honestly Jr has turned out to be a fantastic person, has a great personality, a smoking hot wife (Amy) who is funny as hell and just an all around good guy.

That time Amy revealed what she had whispered in Dales ear during a previous podcast that made him lose it laughing. He didnt know whether to be mad or impressed. LINK
Oh yeah, look how healthy cousin marriage is! Check out these fine products of cousin marriage.

I had a similar situation. I just explained to the kids that this person has been on the naughty list since he was a kid. He was bad and didnt get presents from Santa and is mad and wants to ruin it for everyone. He has an ugly spirit and likes to make ruin nice things.

The jerk doesnt believe in Santa and so Santa certainly doesnt believe in the jerk so he gets no presents. Not even coal. Santa ghosted him.

re: Bodywash sucks

All i know about axe bodywash is we used it on the dog once and he proceeded to vigorously hump everything in the house.

No more axe in this house.

Also, showers are but are we overlooking the joys of a good old clawfoot tub soaking? A clawfoot tub is perfect for laying back and just relaxing, especially in the winter.
