We had our first 2 share until they were 10&8, brother and sister. They loved it. I think kids that share rooms learn some important tuff and can be closer in many ways

We love Frenchtown. We take the kids and wander round four hours. Several different mini ecosystems in the area along the hikes

No dogs allowed though which is a bummer

Eta: blackwater does allow dogs
Panama City is fine, and 1 hour is plenty there.

I like flying copa. free drinks and 2 checked bags free
Still working on it but you can get through

This. I have it for wi-fi calling free texting and data in other countries. I am in central america often. but it's pain in the arse on the road here in the US. Fine in town.

Watched every basketball game this year so far on my firestick
I've had 3 now - one in each house I've owned, and I'll be putting one in every house I own from now on.

We love it. Super powerful if sized correctly. Never had blockage, only have to empty canister every 6 months.

It's the difference between early and late round money. Pre-CBA it paid big time to stay and move up. Now it isn't worth it.


That is what is being sold by the agents. What I would love to see is there any data showing that fourth and fifth year players or more likely to get to the 2nd contract than three-year college players. My gut says that yes they are more likely to make it - many of them anyway. The problem with that argument is that 21-year-olds have an absolutely horrible time (yours truly included back in the day) seeing the long-term benefit.

Point being what is being sold right now may not actually be the truth, but it's what the kids are buying

Edit: what I meant was fourth and fifth year players or more likely to reach their second contract…

What a load of shite.

RHS accepted < 20 voucher students this year split between 9th and 10th grade only.

It's an uphill battle, but its not nearly that bad.

And FYI the new principal Dr Maribeth Andereck is fantastic. She will get it done or no one can.

Wonder if those ponds in River Bend are seeing any rise?


most definitely yes.




Most definitely no. I live on the lake closest to the park. Just went out and looked - no extra water is in the lake. (I know because I have a potted iris on the edge that I check on and the water is at the same level as usual. I will kayak around tomorrow to check for bubbling.

I guess i'll take a walk down the street and check out the boils tomorrow as well.

ummmm....no.


Highly likely...but not "assured" by any stretch.



you very well know what he meant by 'assured'...if au loses to bama, then wins, we go. if they lose to bama and lose again, we go over them. it's as good as done for anything that's not 'guaranteed' and you know it.

but they had reset the clock to 11 seconds.. thanks to our announcers for taking their noses out of Peyton's arse long enough to point that out for us..


ah...yeah, that would've been nice to know
no shite. it's an obvious 4 point mistake, fact.

find a doctor not paid by florida who would even consider clearing him. seriously.

doesn't matter how tough you are, he has the same cranium and brain matter we all do. it's not like tearing up a bum knee, he could die, seriously.

but I doubt they have twice as many people tailgaiting on campus on gameday than can fit in the stadium.


no way. we waited until kickoff to head in, and the fields were dead. nada. granted, it was 30 degrees, so i wouldn't stay either.

Any stadium not 'on' campus, surrounded by giant parking areas (fields in this case), is not going to have the type of atmosphere as LSU or the grove for that matter
