I own and operate a public food pantry - - and before I opened it I had to wrap my mind around the fact that this can potentially happen. In fact my pantry has been wiped out once - - - I can say is feeding people is about filling a need without judgment. Who knows how many people took things? People that visit food pantries do not do it as a permanent way of life…. Whatever their circumstances are, they clearly have a need.
My point is, you if the model of your charity is that you make food available to the public anonymously- - you just have to do it without judgment and know this kinda stuff will occasionally happen. All you can do it hope everything got distributed to people who had a need.

There is actually one La state appellate case that upheld a general damages award of $5k for loss of a dog. Still not enough in my opinion

I turn, look them in the eye- - let a small pause in the exchange take place- - and with a quivering bottom lip I softly say as I hold back tears - - “I did it for you.”

re: Do people react irrationally when gas prices rise?

The average American doesn’t understand global economics but there are certain barometers they use that triggers alarms that things are out of whack. A 20% spike is gas prices is one of those barometers.

Pier fishing Fontainebleau State Park

Have a friend who is wheelchair bound who wants to take his son fishing. Anyone ever pier fished at FountainBleau?
Is it decent fishing or are you just drowning worms?

I've said it before and I will continue to say - - - Sid is the proverbial dog that caught the car. He doesn't know what to do with it.

Seems maybe this rings a bell - - just seems odd that 100% of homeowners would sell. Usually always a hold out. I was thinking this had to be a State taking but man what a lawsuit that would have been. Maybe they paid them such an ungodly amount they couldn’t say no.
Houses on Nicholson Dr

As an old school native of BR, I tend to have more knowledge of the city than most but one mystery has eluded me for years - - I’m hoping someone here has the answer.
Decades ago north of LSU on Nicholson- - specifically on the west side of Nicholson- - as you head towards downtown there was a row of beautiful homes. One after another… side by side. Then alluvasudden they were demolished and nothing ever took their place.
What happened that all these people sold their homes to be leveled?
Anyone know?

re: 40 Years Ago, New Coke replaced Coca Cola
Posted by Barrister on 4/23/26 at 7:18 am to The Quiet One
I’ll always believe this was one of the most purposeful and creative marketing plans ever. At the time Coke and Pepsi were neck and neck- - they took away Coke and made us fall in love with it all over again. Returned it as “Coke Classic” and eventually phased out the replacement to go back to just Coke.

Did anyone else sit through this Predator rip-off? It was so predictable and without spoiling anything- - the only mechanism to defeat the baddie more stupid than this was throwing water on the aliens in SIGNS.
