Good Lord! Some of you act like this punishment is enough. She MURDERED a young woman and severely injured another!

They should lock her up and toss the key.

Okay. Fixed the Heading to avoid further confusion. You guys are pretty smart about such things.

May I have your speculations on the kickoff time for LSU-Alabama?

Thank you in advance.

I also vote for seeing Mark at University Car Care on Highland Rd. Been taking my cars there exclusively for 25+ years. Very honest and fair priced. He’s also an incredible auto diagnostician.

Can only imagine that $2 tip being left.

Actually, I left a five dollar tip on a twenty dollar charge (before tax and "operations and wage fee"). This is a 25% tip. I don't penalize hard working servers because of problems with their restaurant. Perhaps you do. Are you projecting a bit?

I just had breakfast at Frank’s (Airline Hwy in BR). The bill with tax was $22.90. There was nearly a dollar added for “Operations and Wage Fee”, which I indicated I wanted taken off my bill.

Initially, the cashier said it could not be taken off. I then asked for a manager, and it was taken off. I was told that the charge was to keep from having to print new menus with higher prices. It seems to me that the $15.99 I paid for an omelet should well cover costs with a nice profit.

I was told that the fee in question would be coming off in October, so I’m guessing they’ve had other complaints. Maybe in October there will be new menus with higher prices. I don’t know.

Where in the lower bowl? Row and section?

LSU Police are reporting an armed robbery near Coates Hall at LSU.

A rock could do it.

Several years ago, I was driving down Carrollton Avenue in NOLA around Notre Dame Seminary when the neutral ground was being mowed. One of the mowers kicked up a rock that hit my drivers-side door just below the window. It left a perfectly round hole that looked just like a bullet hole. (Two feet higher, and I wouldn’t be sharing this story!)

I never fixed it, and later traded in the car. When people would ask about the hole, I would always grin and say, “Irate husband…”

It just made a better story.

About 40 years ago, Pink Floyd played Rice Stadium. A huge electrical storm moved in. They kept playing, and nobody left. Best light show ever!
