Wherever you are: School zones are back in effect, and our state's roving revenue collectors are hard at work, protecting citizens from the dangers of driving 28 M.P.H. past a building with kids inside. The school just north of downtown Denham Springs was demolished after the 2016 flood and just ...

[quote]1990 was longer than 20 yrs ago[/quote]Yeah. I'm getting old. In my defense, I remembered that the south side of Watson got 4-laned around 2010, so that was my frame of reference. I definitely drove on the old road for a while after I got my license (late 80s). Just about killed myself passin...

[quote]Livingston, seems to be going down hill.[/quote]It has been over a year since I drove through Live Oak school traffic. Been doing WFH and/or going into the office early. Anyway, I had to take a kid to the dentist this AM, and I forgot about the beast that is 7AM LOHS traffic. Sat in traffic f...

Can’t we at least move the black hole that is Yuli down in the lineup? I mean it’s obviously a bridge too far for FODB to sit his arse on the bench, but can we at least move him into the 7/8/9 hole? ...

[quote]Finally getting a thunderstorm in NW Houston[/quote]Saw it was black outside during the first few camera shots, then it was pouring rain behind the guy doing analysis from the right field media box. Then, I pulled up the radar and holy shite...Houston and specifically the Juice Box looked like...

"Borrowed" a neighbor's motorcycle when I was 15/16. Almost wiped out speeding around a huge curve. Promised myself I would never ride another one, having avoided a serious accident. A promise I've kept for 30+ years. Congrats on the sobriety. Was there something that made August 10, 2005, the da...

Damn, I read that headline as "Mall of Louisiana." Was wondering why I didn't remember a shooting there recently but was thinking we have so many, that it was definitely possible I missed one....

Demco. Broke $500 last month. First time ever. Had never even broken $300 before 2022. 3500 living plus a pool and a separate game room. House has spray foam insulation and is pretty efficient for its size. Thermostat stays 77/78 daytime and 74 upstairs overnight to sleep. Friends nearby have a ...

[quote]ERA huh?[/quote]I’ll admit I’m a relative novice to all things baseball, but I should’ve called it batting average, right? I know there are a hundred different metrics, OBP, OBP+, and others which measure the player’s performance. But, BA was what I thought the basic, old metric was, and I mi...

Moldy nachos has been hitting the cover off the ball here lately. Got his ERA all the way up to.185. Happy for him, but that’s just how bad he sucked the first half....

[quote]But when I hit $5 million net worth (5-7 years from now), I am going to buy a Porsche Panamera[/quote]My old man has amassed x4 that number, and he tools around town in an early 90s Dodge farm pickup w/o A/C. I inherited his frugality, but whatever POS I drive in retirement will have air c...

[quote]dont give up[/quote]Too late. I cancelled that shite when it didn't fill in the first hour or so. Some of y'all may make some serious coin today, but at least I kept $21 in my pocket. Which will be worth $10 by the time Brandon gets finished. :banghead:...

$160 and climbing. Shows available in the lowly RH app with a note that some exchanges have halted trades. Guess my 5 share order at $4.20 ain't getting filled....

Used OT earned during Ida to buy a whole home generator, so we should okay in SELA. OTOH, I was volunteered to assist storm recovery work across the entire southeast in 2023, and that usually means a few weeks luggage life somewhere. So, it's basically tied on my front. The only thing that could til...

Not a bad year for music, and the last full year in which the world existed (if you can even call it that) before that certain musical masterpiece performed by the young Rick Astley in 1987. I listened to everything I could find back then, but hair metal and country music were predominant in the ...

We doing this again today? Damn satellite TV has been offline/low res for the past hour with sheets of rain coming down here in north LP. Love my new Starlink internet, but it was knocked offline as well....

[quote]That’s a bit on the nose don’t you think?[/quote]Could've been one of those backwards 3-wheel motorcycles....
