Oldest graduates HS next Friday. Straight As, almost first year of college done via dual enrollment. On track to graduate SELU in 3 years in accounting and get first year of MBA done via TOPS.
He'll be a commuter student (like his parents), so he's not exactly leaving home anytime soon. OTOH, it seems like I was dropping him off for 1st grade about a month ago.

re: Best and Worst Airports in US
Posted by FCP on 5/8/25 at 1:48 am
Flying to/from the Big Island of Hawaii was pretty smooth. Admittedly it lacked a lot of the amenities that are commonplace elsewhere, but as far as the logistics of disembarking / getting into a rental, it was great.
There’s also a small airport down close to San Diego that was always smooth when I was living out there. I lived closer to LAX, but I could go down there and grab a flight way faster than dealing with the pandemonium of LAX.

re: What is the most annoying insect during the summer?
Posted by FCP on 5/5/25 at 11:41 pm
Worst for me these past couple of years has been some kind of Orange Paper Wasp. Slightly larger than red wasps, but as ornery as a hornet off his meds. Also strangely few affects from wasp spray.

Come to think of it, I'm pretty much an old fart myself. Which reminds ms: "Get Off My Lawn!"

I used to enjoy NPR's variety shows, non political, but eventually even those became political so I haven't listened in years.

My personal truck is a Tundra with its infamous snap-off antenna. Snapped mine off in the housing, and the only way to replace it requires taking off the right front fender and taking apart the passenger side door frame. So, it has been Bluetooth only since 2021. Maybe 98.1 if I'm close to BR, but that's about it.

Definitely not the Strawberry Festival. Unfortunately, they seem to hold the local chapter meeting for Murder, Inc. at the same time/place.

re: OT Ballers - Brett Favre's Black Creek Farm is on the market for $14 million
Posted by FCP on 4/25/25 at 1:10 pm
Mundane trivia: My uncle lived nearby and was a building contractor of some kind who did work on Favre's house. Nothing huge but I do have a couple of concrete rings which were supposedly from that jobsite. Apparently they were supposed to form the base of some columns, although knowing my uncle (RIP in peace), it could have just been rank bullshite.

The layover in ATL is 43 minutes. Delta has an earlier flight about of BTR, and I'm thinking of moving departure back to then. Even though we will already be inside the system by that point, I'm just nervous that 43 minutes is cutting it too closely.
re: Have any of y'all ever represented yourself in small claims court?
Posted by FCP on 4/24/25 at 10:41 pm
Sued Acadian Ambulance in small claims court due to a dispute over a bill. Basically, they were listed as a provider in my insurance paperwork, but they were claiming it was a "different" Acadian Ambulance. There were some other factors, but that was the gist. Filed a Petition for Declaratory Judgment. Actual pretrial resolution was to terms which were in a nondisclosure agreement, and my suit was voluntarily dismissed shortly thereafter.

re: Outdoor tv: Any moisture issues?
Posted by FCP on 4/24/25 at 10:28 pm
Get a cheap one and invest like $5 in silicone plugs for the hdmi ports. And any other ports where moisture could have a point of ingress. The $200 Walmart special will last at least 5 years and maybe a full decade at long as it's not sitting in water.
Just as a point of reference, I had a buddy who pulled TVs out of the debris left after the 2016 flood in Denham Springs. Both TVs were completely submerged. He got them out, made sure they were dry, and they were still working several years later.
