re: For those that always say north of 1-10 isn’t Louisiana…

Avoyelles Parish here . . .
I get what you’re saying. How are we not Cajun and coonass enough then the people that hang out in microbreweries on the weekends in Lafayette?
It’s an argument as old as time but I think there are pockets of us above I-10 that belong in the conversation. I’d set the boundary at us though bc there is nothing Cajun about Alexandria.
I would add Natchitoches, though, went to school there and damn I love me some meat pies!

You can't frickin avoid pop up showers in June in south Louisiana
Just passed through Avoyelles Parish. It was WAY more than a pop up shower. I hope it doesn’t head towards BR or we’ll be looking at an even later start.

Some crazy stuff. The amount of emergency vehicles and heavy machinery out there was almost something out of a movie.
We definitely don’t get stuff like this around here much.

re: Any of you baws or bawettes prefer Dauphin Island over Gulf Shores/Orange Beach?

Not that it’s a secret anymore, but Fort Morgan is a mix of both. It’s still semi low key but just close enough to do stuff in town.
I’ve been going down there since the 90’s and granted, it has grown up a lot but the beaches and traffic aren’t nearly as bad as GS/OB.

Was born in the 80’s, grew up in the 90’s, went to college in the 00’s.
Working on computers for a living but don’t own one bc I don’t want to be around them when I get home.
Still rock my old Super Nintendo on my 75 inch TV though.
Also, the Boomer generation, those frickers didn’t grow up with it but rely on the technology more than anyone. The amount of stuff I have to work on for people 60 plus is fricking stupid!

You can’t back up programs. You install them.
Any programs on the prior machine will need to be reinstalled.
You can backup documents, music, pictures and the such. Anything in your C: users folder.

Kelly is just an average coach. He is like a game manager qb but a coach. Good enough to win most games but not he big games unless he gets lucky.
So, he is Coach O? Why are we paying him this asinine amount of money for mediocrity? Such a dumbass take.

re: Next Band To Perform Halftime Show
Posted by The Drizz on 4/2/24 at 6:11 pm to dawgfan24348
I’m not sure if any 2000s bands would move the needle to get enough people enthused on watching the halftime show. It’s more about a performance and not a rock show now.
Personally, I’d love to see Incubus or Shinedown but I think their popularity has waned unfortunately.

There’s a Rouses at W Ft Morgan road, I’m sure they’ll have some sushi.
This. When you walk in, to the left, is a station and usually someone behind it making the sushi.
Their Worcestershire sauce is very good a well. Has a more garlic flavor than the usual.
I can attest to the chili and sloppy Joe mix as well. Both very good!

I live in CENLA. Sounds like you gave up convenience for land and rural. I am in the same boat and you won’t hear me bitch about it. Suck it up and deal with it or move back. It is what it is. We make a menu for the month, get our necessities and make due with what we have.
No words will bring her back or make you feel any better. I lost mine unexpectedly last October. She was 6 years old. I have 3 healthy boys but she was my girl. No one will ever understand either. I just got a puppy similar to her but I continually compare them unfairly and hope she ends up like her predecessor. I am truly sorry for your loss and now how it feels.
re: Has the print on consumer labels and such gotten smaller over the years?
Posted by The Drizz on 12/28/23 at 2:53 pm to shutterspeed
I’ve seen some that don’t even bother putting the labels on the product but just a simple QR code. I think that’ll be the new norm.
re: Update Perps Arrested: ATM Tech Robbed at Lafayette Capital One

Most ATM techs are not going to remove cassettes from an ATM to take them into a bank. It is a huge liability issue.
As said we, as bank employees, not the technicians. That way they can service the machine without any currency in them.
I don’t understand why Capital One employees wouldn’t do this because the technicians are only worried about getting the machine back in service and not about their surroundings.

I thought the money was kept inside more of a safe/vault within the ATM and most tech work could be done without accessing that? In fact, it’s bonkers if the techs even have access to the money part while alone. But I guess they do.
I work at a bank. Sometimes those technicians need access to the money dispenser, the vault where the money canisters are housed. Our protocol is to pull those canisters, bring them inside, and place them in the main vault anytime the ATM is getting serviced. I’m surprised a national financial institution like Capital One doesn’t have the same protocols.
