Correct. There were already a lot of chicken littles but ever since Hunt P repeatedly said to "wave the white flag" and surrender, the pussies have started crawling out of the woodwork like roaches. Support CLK & LSU no matter what!

Bone spurs - he's 4F.

... how could a man of such manifest talents sit at a high school for ten years.
Different time / different place from what most of us relate to now. Skip was concerned with the essence of baseball as a way of molding character through the detailed, single-minded pursuit of excellence. He simply had the guts to work it all out, enduring years of learning and self-realization, until his ultimate goals came to fruition at LSU. Skip Bertman kinda broke the mold.

March 29, 1986 : I sneaked in a 6-pack for a few beers and a cigar in tribute to the Tigers while sitting out in the left field bleachers ... not the baseball Tigers, though ... it was to toast the Final Four team that had just lost to Louisville that day after one of the wildest rides we ever had as LSU fans. Back at the Box, we swept Tennessee that weekend ... and Skip took the team to Omaha for their first-ever CWS a couple of months later. The rest is history.

Catahoula's in Grand Coteau closed

Lost a good one last weekend :
Catahoula's closes, doggonit
quote:
Acadiana has one less dining destination. Catahoula’s in Grand Coteau has closed its doors. A victim of the economy and the drive to the historic town in St. Landry Parish, chef and owner Jude Tauzin extinguished his flames for the last time after dinner on Sunday night. “I’ve been struggling for a while. I couldn’t hang on any more,” says Tauzin.
The beautiful restaurant, located in a former general merchandise store, was one of the premier eating establishments in the area. Founded in 1996 by John and Hillary Slaughter, the restaurant featured innovative seafood dishes and huge photographs of Catahoula hounds, shot by photographer John Slaughter. Tauzin, first as chef, then as owner, took the cooking to new heights, garnering accolades from foodie journals like Southern Living and Gourmet magazine.

Soops in Maurice is only about 4-5 miles down Johnston.
That's a pretty ambitious shot for lunchtime traffic on Ambassador. Better take the scenic route down Kaliste to E. Broussard take a left down to 92 then a right thru Milton to Maurice ... or just go right on EB to Johnston.
Or ... right around the corner from the OP on Kaliste Saloom try this place for a plate lunch :

SONJA’S CAJUN DELI, 2807 KALISTE SALOOM ROAD, LAFAYETTE, 988-0516
Formerly Comeaux’s, this tiny yet popular Exxon station is practically a full scale restaurant, offering breakfast, daily plate lunch specials, po-boys, and dining tables to boot.

Here's one dish for your list :
Corn Maque Choux Recipe
You might already have a maque choux recipe, I just picked that example randomly. Stuffed merlitons also popped into my head but I have no idea if these dishes appeal to you. Have you tried pickles and ice cream, without the ice cream? Congrats on BNTW Jr.

I wouldn't call it sausage, more like a type of jambalaya in a casing.
I wouldn't call it sausage either, but it is ... its blood sausage but we all mostly eat the unbloody white boudin and never call it sausage. If you wanna call it something in a casing it's more like dirty rice than jambalaya.
As for the novice wondering if local people know it can be eaten "raw", that would be a yep my friend ... for breakfast, lunch, dinner & midnight snack. Welcome to Louisiana.

To everything, there is a season.
That was the season for ... 'Our hitting coach sucks' and 'WTF is up with all the baserunning errors?' and 'Bench (Dean-Ochinko-Helenihi-Mitchell)NOW!! ... threads.
This is the season for ... 'JJ vs JL' and 'Jai vs Hawkins' and 'JaMarcus vs Flynn' ... threads.
I agree with anybody replaying/reliving the 2009 baseball season. It doesn't get much better than that.

He definitely will not start midweek games ... because he will start all Friday & Sunday games during the season and every single postseason game thru the CWS ... his record in 2010 will be 44-0 (all complete games) with 731 Ks. Also, this fall he'll go both ways starting all 14 games at QB besides playing middle on defense. "Middle" is a new position created by Jones ... LSU will play 5 DLs and 5 DBs, and Chad Jones at middle. No team will score against them.

Yeah, seems like it might have been produced by one of the public stations in New Orleans. Good idea, I'll try it. Thanks.
