Robin Williams - An Evening at the Met
Nearly 1/3 of Houston’s 32 first downs were due to stupid LSU penalties.
Had an interview for a technical position at CGI a few months ago. I was the only non-indian on the call. The interview went over the benefits, briefly went over my resume, then they proceeded talk for the whole scheduled hour about non-technical stuff. They knew they weren't going to hire me the second they saw me, but they still had to kill the entire hour.
Young people today thinks listening to the game on the radio was some great hardship. It was actually awesome. LSU's radio guys were pretty good. Caught the game on WWL, 100.7 (the old LSU tiger radio), 98.1 the Eagle, and even o 96.9 KZMZ in Alexandria. Point is, several radio stations across the state carried it, so you could hear it at the deer camp, at home, or out on the road.
Many fond memories sitting around a campfire with the men and listening to the game.

Agreed on the Italian stuff. Ferrari is not a compatible team for any British or German man

In a perfect world - Max would be at Mercedes, Kimi Antonelli would be at Ferrari, Lewis would be at McLaren, and Oscar Piastri would be at Red Bull.
Remember when he first got into the NFL and donated a million dollars to the university so LSU could improve the facilities?
Bro bleeds Purple and Gold.
Maybe not coaching, but I'd want him around the program in some capacity like a recruiting analyst or brand ambassador, or something similar.

He was great at coaching the Harlem Shake
Ferrari finished #4 getting two cars in the points almost every race. Red Bull finished #3 with only Max getting points in every race.

McLaren finished #1, and deservedly so. Their cars were top shelf. Got Lando the championship. Could any driver have won in those cars?

Mercedes finished #2. George Russel is terribly underrated, but has his flaws. Kimi is awesome. The team is solid German engineering. No complaints.

Red Bull is all Max. Car #2 is invisible. I really don't understand how Max can be in the hunt every race, and Car #2 - no matter the driver - struggles to find points.

Then there's Ferrari. Poor Lewis had to have major culture shock being an Englishman, having recently been with Germans and moving to an Italian team. Charles LeClerc gets it by now, and has learned to deal with them. But it's a totally different way of thinking at Ferrari. They need a Spanish or Italian driver to truly understand the way they do things.
There is a lesbian scene in the movie Gia between her and Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliet from LOST), they're both topless and it's awesome.

Lafayette is where you go if you want to watch a pathetic class of elites waste every single dime you pump into the system.


This right here. I've spent some time with New Orleans "elites." They're old-school, blue blood, they've got theirs and there's plenty to go around.
I've spent some time with BR "elites". A bunch of drunks who feel like they can do anything with impunity. The law doesn't apply to them.
Lafayette "elites"are truly pathetic in comparison. They think they're top tier, but they wouldn't sniff BR or NOLA's jockstrap. Their focus is on their family and friends making the money. Their flex is getting your garbage picked up twice a week, or making sure to put in a good word at that private school. They're small time.

Thought it was the residents in that lovely stretch of ghetto between Pinhook and Willow Street that were holding up progress on 49?

You mean the section where doped up/drunk pedestrians get killed every week trying to cross the thruway? If only the main portion of the roadway were elevated...

I can't prove anything, but I believe that whole scam was a distraction drummed up by the property owners.
Lafayette's NIMBY game has been historically strong
The city's roads are laid out according to the vermillion "river" and there's like 3 bridges in the city because nobody wants on in their backyard.

Almost all neighborhoods are cul-de-sacs leaving no connecting options.

They heard I-49 was going to be built so the insiders bought up all the property and have held it hostage for decades.

The exits off of I-10 have not been updated since the 1960's, but the traffic has increased 100000X

State highways - 90, Johnson, and others criss cross the city. The city has a "it's not my problem/funding, it's the state's problem" attitude towards these roads.

Somebody's brother in law runs the red light synchronization program. But if that wasn't bad enough, because of the city/state issue - redlights cannot be syncronized properly due to differing laws.

Country people flood the town to shop, and they get nervous or have zero idea how to just drive predictably and be traffic. Of course they all have F-350s, and they inevitably find the Nissan Sentra driver and run over their rear.

In Baton Rouge, I-10, I-12, Airline, Essen, Perkins, all jam up and it's a nighmare. But in Lafayette, you're not neccessarily sitting there, you're dealing with crazy shite.
Eh, I enjoyed it. Thought Clooney did a great job playing himself. It got very meta at some points. I appreciated all the protagonist's family and career struggles. Overall, I thought it was very well done.

Adam Sandler - ok, he can act in a dramatic role, but the problem is his face. He's got a naturally goofy look that makes it hard to take him seriously. And when he's upset, it's the natural reaction of the audience to laugh at him. Basically, the man CAN act in a drama, but he needs a different face if he's going to continue to lean into it.
Daily Mail isn’t a reputable news source. It’s basically Weekly World News without the Bat Boy update or chupacabra sightings
What's the difference between Kevin Costner and Jesus?
Jesus doesn't walk around Montana thinking he's Kevin Costner.

Asking whether it's "worth it" is the wrong question entirely.
The real question is, are you up for it? Are you ready to change your life to be a good parent?

I still haven’t watched the sequel.


I refuse to watch it because everything I've read about it would piss me off. This Russell Crowe comment cements everything I've heard about it.
quote:


I heard on a podcast that duffer brothers avoided killing off some characters because they like the actors as people

Everyone the parent's age should be dead by now. Hopper, Ms. Byers, everybody. Including the reporter/smuggler guy.
Robin should've gone last season.
Lucas's little sister needs to have left Hawkins. Max should've left when her brother died, or Veccna shoulda killed her.
Will's Brother/Nancy's boyfriend is an undeveloped character. 5 seasons and I can't even think of his damn name.

2 main flaws - They didn't ratchet up the tension when they had the opportunity to. And They missed the point of a coming of age story. The parents don't need to be involved in solving their problems.

must be something tragic to make the homeowner shut down like that and stop caring about anything

That neighbor lady was there saying he used to hand out full sized candy bars on halloween. Something tragic def happened, like the death of his family or something.

Read the poem Ozymandaeus and you’ll realize that first quote doesn’t mean what you think it means.
