After all this time, he found meaningful employment?

Collective Community Action

An alliance of environmentalists and Calcasieu Parish landowners are publicly celebrating a decision from the De La Express Pipeline not to continue with their Louisiana project. This pipeline was intended to send feedstock materials to industries to manufacture plastics.

The property owners have been arguing that they have not been able to sell, refinance, or develop their land with this uncertainty. The alliance is claiming a major victory over those corporations who have used an overreach of eminent domain for private gain.
Dark for sure. Kennison was out of Washington fore sure. I thought he might be thinking of Kevin Guidry.

What? Are you suggesting Mercury Cougar cars?
Are you aware that the Greengate Garden Center has closed? I was told that the owners want about 5 million for the property. It looks to be about four or five acres.
Next time that you are at the exit check out the gang and their large pile of waste under the overpass. Reassuring for the local shoppers security and the first impression for the Texas visitors to the casinos.

What part of town were you raised? I was Third Ward and my wife was Second Ward.
Did the operators mention "jumping off the cooling towers" or any other comments about venting their stress? Then the shareholders will know. We will know.

Most likely if it appeared dark and was the size of a House Sparrow.

They are a western species typically found in Arizona, New Mexico, Mexico, in high elevations. Extremely rare vagrant to Louisiana. I was surprised to see one in Calcasieu Parish.

Rivoli's Hummingbird

If you birders see a hummingbird that looks to be on steroids, it is a Rivoli's. I suspect that it was blown in to Lake Charles by the strong counterclockwise winds from TS Author.

I will start with them. Thanks.

Sterling silver flatware

Can you suggest a buyer in South Louisiana other than pawn shops for sterling silver flatware dining sets? Some pieces are identified as" Gorham." Is that identification enough to warrant a premium over melt value?
Wade was unforgettable. I watched him win the 100M and 200M at the state
meet at BR in 2002. Barbe did beat Wade and his Evangel teams 4 X 100M relay team which remains he Class 5 A record. Evangel's 4 x 200 squad was DQ'd in the Regional meet.

I am surprised that Brother Martin's 4 x 100 M failed to break that record.
I was told that there is a very limited toll roads on US Interstate highways, perhaps two or three.

I was also told that the project could be less expensive if it were simply a bridge over a river as opposed to its extended I-10 east and west improvements, aesthetic lighting etc. Just asking.
Upon my understanding the I-210 bypass is two to three miles longer from the interchanges than crossing over the new toll bridge. What percentage of motorists will avoid the toll would you guess. Is it likely to be local contractors mostly inclined to use the 210?
Rich yet? We?

I am certainly not by any definition.

I can't speak for you, perhaps you will tell me at the wine mixer.

As opposed to SLI, my wife had acquired her shares with LIT, the exchange traded comprehensive Lithium fund which has increased about 28% in value this year. With the good old Louisiana Community Property law I might be some day if she will keep me.
Ace,

You are asking me about a permit?

The last time I was asked a question concerning Arkansas was "What is the capitol?" I said "A."
The S & P Index increased significantly in the last two sessions since you wrote this.

With your freed cash, pay some of your debt off, if you have any.

It is not for everyone, as I have said before, but if the Index drops about 8% from its highest close, I would buy and sell it when it returns. Save some bullets and purchase more at a drop of 12-13%, and lastly about 18% if it happens. It will return at some point to its previous high at some point.
I transferred my 3/21/26 shares of S & P Index back to the "Stable Value" option yesterday. Not perfect timing, of course, but good enough to turn a handsome profit of 7.01% of my risk. Would I buy more shares if the S & P index drops back to the 6300 category? Absolutely.

Now if SLI would just make us right.
