I'm pretty sure it's a tactic to keep crime down. Downtown gets most dangerous when the sun goes down so they shut down early.

it’s a smaller area so it’s easier but the dauphin street area has a very visible police presence after dark (or at least it has when I e been there). It makes a huge difference. Interestingly the troublemakers in mobile look identical to the troublemakers in New Orleans weird how that works

Blue Star range, 36”
It’s the tits

that would take 3 gallons of bifen and 1500 gallons of water LOL

black eyed peas with ham
beet/turnip/mustard greens with smoked turkey leg
sautéed cabbage
roasted pork chop
cornbread
cannolis

Wax myrtle and willow

---

both far better than cane and wont cut your hands up. also easier to brush up with. on the wax myrtle cut the long skinny sprouts off of an area thats already been cut. they will last a week at least on your blind

roseau cane is a pretty important marsh resource...it holds the banks together while they firm up (or if eroding, slows it down)

Have some decent results from a pretty halfhearted winter garden attempt. The yield to effort on this has been very high

Romansco, broccoli, candystripe/golden/red beets, carrots, bok choy, white and purple radishes. I’ll let the bok choy, lettuces and mustard greens go to seed.















ready for today's greens pot

there is a place in my heart for a medium rare burger, loaded potato and a couple monsoons from port of call. I’m glad it’s there when the mood strikes

watched this again for about the fifth or sixth time last night, it’s still great and quite funny at times. I knew it was coming but spit up my beer when he rolls under the truck the first time LOL

one minor thing I’ve always wondered is why, once they knew where the omega was, they didn’t just bomb the building? Why travel all that way, get all of J squad killed, and go hand to hand combat? Or send a couple cruise missles?

keep us posted thanks

2026 is a gap year for me...zero income unless i hustle as the proceeds from my business sale wont hit until april 2027. so my goal for 2026 is 30,000 in realized gains so i can be eligible for ACA premium subsidy, and as much unrealized gain as i can manage.

next year will tell whether i am talented enough to trade for income or whether i'll need to go find a job :lol:

i just need to make $500,000 in unrealized gain until i turn 65 (5 years including 2026) and then i'll be golden. that is on $1.5MM actively invested, that will allow me to fully invest the $1MM in capital gains and live off the interest
