as a guy who always has updated registration, insurance and inspection sticker I don't understand why people cry about this crap. frick we wlive in a state where almost half aren't insured you should be happy.


You can’t get an inspection sticker with a crack in your windshield. New requirements are anything over a quarter size, I think is an automatic fail.

My wife has a windshield crack. I’m not paying $1000/yr get a new windshield so she can get an inspection sticker

I just drove past them. Don't have a sticker and didn't get stopped. The cop was marked in the middle of Highland closer to CCLA and didn't seem to be very engaged with his work. Another cop had someone pulled over underneath I10


Everytime the traffic stopped for a red light, they would come out the gas station and walked down the middle looking and pointing people into the gas station
Out serving and protecting the great folks of EBR at 7AM.

My son has been there from infant to the 2 year old class.

Previous comments are accurate. They have some solid teachers in the most of the classes, but have had turnover and trouble getting quality teachers for others. K1 being the toughest.

We are leaving this summer for k3 at a different school. We took a tour of k3 and k4 at FCA and were not impressed. Other schools are doing STEM and Art and FCA is just more daycare.

If only these companies looked at the grass they’re treating rather than taking a one size fits all approach

Solid pipe doesn’t need filter fabric or rocks

I would do solid sch 40 pvc over solid corrugated

Bury the pipe 8-12” in the ground

Put rocks under the catch basins.. if you are worried about the catch basins sinking, you can always concrete them in. Here is my yard

I agree

Roto Rooter is operated well in BR.

The other franchises (Nola/lake Charles/lafayette) not so much
Had to build a bigger store because all of the demand from Braxton and Jaxson’s travel ball needs.
You ok with buying used to save money?

What size screen do you want? 14" 15" or bigger?

The best value is used business class computers. Dell or Lenovo's. Most of the computers you find at BestBuy are overpriced. Really no need to buy something more expensive unless you have a specific use case. 500gb SSD's, 16gb RAM, plenty of power for what you listed.

Lenovo T14 Gen 2

Lenovo T495s
I just ran an outdoor outlet for a sump pump.

I used 3/4” conduit to protect the wire as it was only buried about 12” deep. I used UF-B wire. Had to buy the whole roll as the supply house didn’t have enough to sell to me by the ft.

Where you located?
Currently $760/mo - 2 year old.
