re: East of Eden (Netflix) Discussion *Now Streaming*
Posted by GasMan on 10/13/26 at 10:11 pm to LouisianaLonghorn
I had never read the novel. I started it years and years ago and I just couldn't get it going so I gave it up. I guess I just wasn't mature and wise enough.
I watched the first two episodes on Netflix and then I started reading this thread and the comments relating the show to the novel.
I decided my time would be better spent for now reading the book. This time, man, I couldn't hardly put it down. Awesome.
The discussion between Adam and Lee and Samuel about the Cain and Abel story, I read it several times. Priceless. Just awesome stuff.
Now I am going to resume the series.
I will read the book again in six months or a year.
What a book. Great thread.

Somebody’s gonna turn an ankle or wrench a knee one of these times and then we’ll all say why the hell were they doing that.

Back in the day, the old McNeese - USL games were always a lot of fun. They disliked each other intensely.
I went to several in the mid-'70s to early '80s before USL got their little brother syndrome and they were hard-fought games played before very passionate fans.
Good times.

I was at LSU from 1982-85.
I do not recall anyone worrying about it or even really talking about it.

No I hate Alabama almost as much as I hate Florida.
Don’t really hate any other SEC schools but more of a hearty dislike for Tennessee, Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma.

Bought these a while back and got to admit I'm starting to wonder what the holdup is.

re: Sauerkraut and hot dogs over rice...
Posted by GasMan on 9/12/26 at 10:30 pm to Buck_Rogers
I grew up poor and ate a lot of fried eggs over rice, or grits, for dinner.
This actually doesn't sound so bad if that's all there is.
Bonus points if it's homemade sauerkraut.

That's just sad.
It was a stupid thing to do by the defender and when you give the CFB officials the opportunity to get involved, well, there you go.
