I need new music
Get a Sirius XM subscription or download and explore alt radio on Pandora. There is a lot of great new music out there. I like the North Americana channel on XM. Will drive your wife crazy though.

I have one and get compliments on it all the time bc it looks much better than an average smart watch. If you leave the display on and set it to a watch face that looks more traditional, a lot of people don't realize it's a smart watch.
I stayed in Kotor for a week. My view the whole trip was the Bay of Kotor, marred only by passing cruise ships, lol. The town was magical at night after the cruise people left.
When I am a bit older and my decline in mobility supersedes my disdain of cruises, I'll likely go Viking.

Going in the fall with some college buddies, including three who are local. We are staying in Louisville and going to Woodford Reserve and Castle & Key. Will likely throw in another. Also going to Keeneland for a day at the races. Dinner at Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse.

I like to pack as light as possible, because I usually have to carry all my wife's stuff too.
re: Has cottage cheese always been this good?

Had some this morning with everything bagel seasoning sprinkled on top. I like Daisy 2%. I actually like the curd texture.
I need to wear them to a 2 star Michelin with a blazer and slacks but also be able to wear them with shorts as I walk around a European city. And not annoy my insertional achilles tendonitis do they need to be supportive.
Travel Shoe
Posted by vistajay on 3/23/26 at 3:52 pm
Looking for a well cushioned brown leather mens shoe that can be worn all day sightseeing (often in shorts) when traveling and then also be worn to dinner with slacks at a nice restaurant. Am partial to Rockport due to fit and comfort but also looking at Ecco Track 25. Any other suggestions?

I picked up the blue last week. It is a bit darker than it looks on the internet but still nice. I tried on the stripe and while it looked better than I thought it would, I could not get over the big white space on the back.
re: Restaurants around UNO
Posted by vistajay on 3/19/26 at 11:27 am to vilma4prez
Safta's Table is really excellent. Went there last week and had lamb hummus and chicken schnitzel. If you are dead set to stay by UNO, Yummy Pho and Fried Chicken near the Rouses is a silly name but decent Vietnamese food.
I you really like Phantom, go see Masquerade in NYC. It's an immersive Phantom where the scenes play out right in front of you as you wander through an old warehouse. The actors have all been on Broadway in Phantom, and having them sing steps away while you feel a part of the production is amazing. It was recently extended through this September.
re: America’s 10 Sexiest Accents, Ranked From Most to Least Sexy

Multi-generational Uptown New Orleans beats them all. Just a slight Southern accent that in a young woman is alluring while in a matron can be withering.
re: Any local or unique restaurants or sightseeing spots in Miami and Boca Raton.

In Miami, go walk around the Windward Walls area. Lots of really cool art all over the buildings, a great local art museum and lots of cool shops. Manta is a great choice to eat there if you like seafood and Peruvian.
This is exactly how a doomsday movie should start.
re: TSA lines backed up into the parking lot at MSY.
Posted by vistajay on 3/8/26 at 6:14 pm to LSUintheNW
Apparanty the MSY TSA staff mostly called in sick today to protest govt shutdown and lack of pay. Maybe the same at Hobby. The TSA wait time site says 6 min wait for MSY now though.
re: Do you like to host things at your home?
Posted by vistajay on 3/6/26 at 10:56 pm to Billy Blanks
We host a lot. We often have dinner parties. We throw parties for different events. Had a retirement party last weekend for a coworker. Crawfish boils. The kids have friends over and we cook for them. We host office holiday parties. We are the primary host for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Pool parties. Love it when invited to someone else's house, but that rarely happens.
re: Alone time. How much do you get and do you enjoy it?
Posted by vistajay on 3/6/26 at 10:51 am to FLBooGoTigs1
I typically get home 1.5-2 hrs before my wife on weekdays. Usually hang on the porch with the dog and read. I treasure that time. Not gonna lie, sometimes when I pull in the drive and see my wife's car, I am a little bummed.
re: Crawfish Prices Movin on Up

Was $5.95 a lb for live in Metairie at Mardi Gras. Now it's $3.95 a lb. Seems about right for this time of year.
