re: Movie Trailers That Were Better than the actual film (or told too much)

The Village.
ETA: Loved the movie, but the trailers made it seem like a different kind of movie.

Saw it years ago. Row 7, next to Drew Brees (other side of the aisle). Thought he’d have better seats. He left his Twizzler wrapper on the floor. Trashy. I still have it.

It used to be heavenly.
It’s a different place post-Katrina.
I’m glad I got to grow up there in the ‘70s/‘80s.

re: When is the last time you’ve returned something?
Posted by TigrrrDad on 5/12/26 at 7:57 am to PotatoChip
My wife returns things on a regular basis - easily about 1/3 of the clothes/shoes she buys. It’s like a sport to her. Shopping apparently brings her joy whether it’s at a store or online. And apparently returning stuff is part of the fun. It’s mind boggling.
Lots of fires when I was down there last year. Some on my last trip but not in the area I was catching snakes. In some areas it can help if controllable, in other areas it can be destructive. Bad drought this year so it was to be expected.

Yes.
I moved 34 Western diamondbacks (25 babies) off the road in one night in West Texas.
It’s easier with your fingers.
I move the bigger ones too…
Leaving Thursday for another 12-day stint in West Texas.

Takedowns, but largely ineffective.
Yes. I was heading to Atlanta at night and in the distance saw a light in the sky. It looked similar to the space station - sort of like a bright star but a bit larger. Then it just shot off in one direction and disappeared, far too fast to be a jet.

You’ll want to try traveling across the country to catch and free-handle venomous snakes. Thank me later.

I’m still amazed every time I go to the grocery store for just a few bags of simple items. Sticker shock hits me every time.
At the pump, I’m definitely noticing the increase in gas prices when I do a
3-4,000 mile snake trip. Everglades 2 weeks ago, West Texas next week.

Loved RizGod’s comment to Ozzy: “You said too much. I’ll explain later.”
Not much more to add that wasn’t said already: Boneheaded moves by Ozzy and Jonathan.

Good. I used to catch snakes on that road.

Love that place - loaded with snakes!
re: Do bumblebee stings hurt worse than a other bees or wasps, etc?

Red wasps are worse than yellow jackets and bees imo
Much worse.
Couple years ago I got tagged by 7 yellowjackets, including on the neck and throat. Not nearly as bad as one of those big red wasps.
And non-venomous snake bites don’t hurt nearly as bad as a bee/wasp.

DMV here has online appointment options. The last two times I’ve gone, I’m in and out pretty quick
Same. I’ve recently been to one in Mandeville and one in Slidell. Both times I was able to schedule an appointment online, there were only one or two other people in there, and I was seen in under 5 minutes.
