Hotel near Smoothie King Center

Posted by indytiger on 4/29/25 at 6:09 am
Looking for a place to stay for a concert down there. The Hyatt is too pricy the day of the concert.

Looks like Le Pavillon, Virgin, and NOPSI are all nice, close by, and $2-300 for the night.

Which would you pick, or something else?

Films vs Movies

Posted by indytiger on 4/28/25 at 10:00 am
I've noticed several posters on here correcting people about using the term film for a movie, and movie for a film. What's the actual difference? Or is it just a smug thing to say? I did a search on reddit and even the pretentious folks on there couldn't come to an agreement.
Me and the wife had a similar night of drinking and watching random music videos recently. If you'd have told me we would stumble upon a music video featuring Shia Labeouf cage wrestling half naked with a young girl, I don't think I would have believed you.

We did Felix's fish camp right past Mobile last time we drove that way, on the water, enjoyed it.

There was another place directly across the road that looked good too.

*Forgot to mention, after lunch we went to the USS Alabama museum which is right by the restaurant, very cool.

Thanks for the helpful response
How hard is this show to understand? I'm pretty bad at deciphering Brit accents, but I really want to watch this show.

That's a good point. The original owners ran all the PVC, I just wanted to see if there was a better method.

Need book recs from the ladies

Posted by indytiger on 4/18/25 at 6:40 am
My wife wants to get into reading so she can join me when reading in bed, etc. She would not like what I like; historical fiction, mysteries, westerns, some horror.

So ladies, what are some books, authors, series that you enjoy? What's the first book that got you reading? What's a good beginners book?

Her interests are dogs, healthcare, nutrition. Her favorite tv shows are mostly trash tv (reality, love after lockup type of stuff). She also likes Virgin River on netflix (outdoorsy drama) and game of thrones. She would probably like a book with some romance and/or sex in it.

Best pipe for underground in yard

I've already got PVC ran throughout my yard to several hose bibs, but I'd like to add on to a few farther spots. What's the best material to use, PVC, Pex, flexible poly piping? Something I don't know about?

re: Should I lease propane or buy?

I've got a 120 gal tank for the stove and bbq, and a 500 gal tank for generac and pool heater.

I bought my tanks. I usually check the levels once a month and call when I need a refill, about once a quarter for the little one and get them to top off the big one at the same time.

Some companies allow you to rent their tanks for like $100-200/year, and you can only use that particular company to fill it up.

Literally 99.9% of people wouldn't have even been in this situation. It wasn't the choosing to run, it was the you know, driving into incoming traffic in broad daylight. It is selfish and retarded and the mark of someone who thinks he owns the road and who thinks he's invincible.

frick sake the mental gymnastics here


Agreed. Its crazy the LSU fans on here and the media are making him out to be a martyr, rather than a punk who killed an innocent man.

re: Sinking catfish food?

Posted by indytiger on 4/10/25 at 11:36 pm
I buy the game fish food from the feed store. Half of it sinks and half floats. The catfish go for whatever they can get their fins on first.
Seems like Titanic gets a lot of hate on this forum, and I don't know why. Great movie. And it has boobs.
Word to the wise, lots of people are videoing their workouts, and if an innocent bystander happens to get in their shot, they get pissed. And some chicks like to catch guys on camera glancing at them, and then blast them online for it.

Becnel's citrus in Belle Chasse

Posted by indytiger on 3/31/25 at 6:52 pm
Is it worth it to drive there and pick up citrus trees rather than by locally at nurseries on the northshore? I've heard they have some bigger trees there but have never been.
Following. I planted some SV about 3 years ago, and I thought they would be much bigger now than they are.

God dang that HW match was badass. Wyatt coming out to Copperhead Road. The last second takedown using all his strength. Saluting President Trump. Incredible.
