re: How do you know it’s time for a career change
Posted by holmesbr on 10/5/26 at 11:56 am to turnpiketiger
When the BS out paces the pay then it is time to look around.
If you pull up to work and have to take a deep breath and sigh before going in, time to look around.

re: New Orleans mandated affordable housing. Developers stopped building

Government trying to “fix” a problem only to totally frick it up…..
Seems to me with a lot of these Dem type programs, fines on set asides, bussing, ECT...they never seem to account for when folks say, I'm not doing that. Then don't build, don't bus, or whatever the original plan was that didn't account for an opt out all together.
I'm sure in 1987-88 that the EBR school board said there would be no way half the white kids in the parish move to ascension or Livingston.

You know there is a gun there. There is a still frame of a dude in a white shirt and red shorts that went to his waist band and looks like he has one in his hand. It's in the pan near the end of the video.
Always wondered how one would fair in a collision since it's just 10 gauge sheet metal between you and the other car.
Where the Space Invaders at? My mom figured out how to beat that one. Would turn it off when the score rolled over.
Hell yeah! Run him out there like that buffalo...

These Flock cameras aren’t hitting live DMV databases. They are hitting hit sheets of stolen vehicles, amber alerts and BOLO.
And they also see a pattern that results in interagency communication and being detained without probable cause. So there's that also.

Input a note in the remarks section of a ups label to see if anybody reads it. Rat poison to kill neighbor. I never heard anything from anyone. This was a fortune 500 company. 2006-ish when there was more of a sense of humor I guess.

how many cars are parked in there.
One of those YouTube channels that finds missing people in submerged cars went there. I don't think they found any bodies, but found like 11 cars in a half mile stretch. The cops knew about a couple of them. They did have 2 or 3 missing persons they were looking for though.

Just extend I-12 to Shreveport..twin-sign 10/12 across the Mississipi River and have 12 branch out again shortly thereafter.
Just re-route I-12 as an elevated expressway up north at Airline Hwy up to the new MS river bridge in St. Francisville then have it follow LA 1 up toward A-town
I'm even more aggressive on that route. Cut it over from Grosse Tete area, Audubon bridge, back to 12 around Holden. By pass should be a bypass.

But how do the politicians family members make a living without the studies. That's where the money is at.

If it's out of town folks passing through, run it to I 12. That's the pass through coast to coast.
Also, loop will never happen within sight of BR.

re: Full French filmmaker footage from 9/11 posted on Youtube

We had a tv at the office in the conference room. I would peek in and see what's happening. Someone's son was in there watching it. I go in about 11 or so and it's a smoking pile of rubble with the walls sticking up.
Me: the top fall off?
Kid: no they feel down.
Me: the whole building? Which one?
Kid: both of them.
Me: wtf?

I think the raw footage. They had a show, like a 60 mins special, within a year of the attack with their footage. I saw in a YouTube channel that CNN owns it now.
Also, YouTube has the ATC radio traffic from the event from when they lost communication with AA11. They knew what seats the attackers came from on the plane. Stewardess called their reservation line and the AA emergency response guy. Kind of interesting.

I think the person was having a bad day and snapped at AP. AP went into the gas station and bought some rubber ducks as a " hope your day gets better" and left one on the lady's jeep. AP doesn't get a cut of the sales and Jeep has trademarked it.

I figure it's a business write off or you have a company car allowance and they use that to supplement the note on something they shouldn't get on their own.
