Big surprise to me is the success Arkansas has had with Louisiana kids. I have two LSU legacy family members at UA and they’ve gotten a lot of kids who would have gone to Ole Miss/Alabama in the past


If my kids go to an SEC school for College, it will be Arkansas. Place is beautiful

This. I love coming back to visit and I really wish my kids were closer to family, but I want to them to grow up in a better place than I did
To be fair, Walgreens going bankrupt is more due to their own frickery.

They made a terrible choice to try and invest in primary care, lost a ton of money from Opioid lawsuits, and are terribly staffed. Every pharmacist I know that has ever worked there, jumped at the first opportunity to leave. Its not cheap to constantly spend money training new hires with high staff turnover

Does this help or hurt small independent pharmacies?


Help

Arkansas passed a law, and I'm sure other states will as well that you cannot own a pharmacy and PBM in the state.

So essentially CVS/Caremark will have to choose operate as Caremark the PBM or their retail CVS store if the law holds up in court. If forced to choose, they will pick Caremark.

As the market is currently, Caremark is reimbursing your mom and pop pharmacies say $18 for medicines they pay $20 for while reimbursing CVS $25.

If nothing changes, 10 years from now, your independents will close up shop (as they are being bled out) and your only options will be CVS or a big box retailer like Walmart that offsets pharmacy losses with store sales

This. The only wreck I've ever been in was some frickwad texting and driving.

D-bag came over the center line on a two lane road and side swiped me. That was after I saw it coming in advance and attempted to move on the shoulder
No.

There is no point unless you want to remain fertile or are insecure about your balls shrinking a little

This game will determine who wins this side of the bracket.

Neither LSU or Arkansas have pitching to lose game 1, win 2 more games, then try to beat the other twice

Then why bother with gym shark at all? Just go to Ross/Marshalls and grab some clearance Nike/Adidas/Puma for less than half the cost. Gym shark is like affliction-tier. If you want the look, buy it. Otherwise theres no point in buying gym shark over $10 nike shorts that are basically the same quality.


Because gymshark has the liner. They also fit me better

Lol. They are $25 shorts.

I'm not wearing $50+ shorts to workout in

Renting cabins, lake houses, beach condos or airfare for 4 is expensive. I guess it would be cheaper to go in with a bunch of people on a bigger house to cut costs but that seems more like a circu than a vacation.


Its not.

I can rent a whole arse lake house in Broken Bow or up in the Ozarks for half the price of a Condo in Orange Beach

Where does one shop for all of these, so I don’t have to order 3 sizes in each to return the ones that aren’t keepers?


Their websites. Usually wait for something like Memorial day, Fathers Day, 4th of July, etc. They have sales and I'll stock up

Except this is rarely the case, especially with kids
quote:

I took my kids to the beach nearly every year until they were 16. Never hauled anything. Wife would carry a bag with some towels, I’d usually have one with some drinks and snacks. We’d rent beach chairs and an umbrella someone else sets up.


I'll make an exception for places like Clearwater/St. Pete. We went there before we had kids and it was legitimately 8 steps from the elevator to beach. I can make something like work.

But the Alabama-Florida panhandle is absolutely miserable and I will not be convinced otherwise

TLF, Gym Reapers, born primitive, Gym Shark-- stuff I actually work out in

Vuori, rhoback, burlebo, bird dog--Casual/more dressy gym shorts
Especially with kids?

Nothing says fun like paying for an overpriced condo, having to sweat your balls off hauling a wagon full of junk down to the beach, only to sit there for about 2-3 hours before everyone has enough sand time and goes sit by the pool. Then you have to break all the shite down, and clean the sand off after.

Went the last two summers, will be doing lake houses from here on out. At least until both our kids are 8+
