re: Worst "crime" did you commit in HS?

After a kid stole one of my mowing jobs while I was on vacation, I snuck out at night and dumped the oil out of his family lawnmower. The engine seised up. I got the job back and his dad never let him use the new lawnmower on other lawns. ...

re: Kent Babb answers some questions about previous story about LSU/Brian Kelly

Posted by dat yat on 3/28/24 at 9:34 am

I read the article a few days ago after KM referenced it. The article could have been set anywhere in America without losing context and he could have used a rich black coach as his example of prosperity*. He seems to have a hard-on for LSU, LA sports, LA economic disparity and racism in LA. ...

Not sure your headline is even accurate but: [quote]France invades Russia?[/quote] isn't the same as [quote]France sends 2000 troops to Ukraine[/quote] But Russia deserves to be invaded for what they did to Ukraine....

Its not about the number of deaths. Its about who is the aggressor. Russia brutally attacked Ukraine for very questionable reasons, so we support Ukraine. The Palestinians/Hamas attacked Isreal last year so we support them. Victims get sympathy, especially when the aggressor is vincible... ...

Brah, when I was at LSU I wore a gold chain even when I ran to the river and back bare-chested. Women dug it (or at least stared a little.) Don't knock it. I haven't worn one in years; thanks for the idea. !...

Single/divorced with grown kids. Im perfectly happy alone whether working, at the fishin condo or the hunting camp. But I do have a GF a half hour away, enjoy time together and would miss her if that ended. Space is good, but togetherness is important. If totally alone, I would be searching......

It needs an update because it is 8 years old. But if that determination holds you can build on the 23 non-wet acres. If you develop any of the other/wet acres, don't do it, unless you want to pay for mitigation....
