I looked at replay, it was a legal pass.

My son thinks the TV is possessed.
Had to check the TV, thought I was on the Jefferson Pilot broadcast.

If you use this excuse for poor play, I immediately ignore the rest of your argument.

I have a Louisiana Start account and was extremely pleasantly surprised that they offer the institutional plus version of VTSAX, VITPX.


Got something in the mail today and apparently they are going to a new 3rd party administrator (probably a fallout of the hacking event). It claims expanded investment options but feels like fewer to me. Pretty much all of the Vanguard funds will map to either US Equity Index or International Equity index. Hopefully these are still vanguard funds with vanguard expense ratios.

My Kohler has been good to me. 20kW. I’m 3400 sq ft with 2 ACs. I never gets close to peak power, always less than 50%. I did put soft starts on my ACs but more for compressor life.

I was set on liquid cooled, but then the next year prices spiked and now you can buy two air cooled for the price of a liquid cooled. So I’ll just do a swap when this one eventually dies.

I had the 550 and traded it for a sequoia. The LC/550 was too small for me.

I had a LC200 and should have kept that. Right size and bulletproof and worth more now than when I sold it.

re: Torpedo in my Zoysia

I had a small amount my first year with zoysia. The whole reason I went with zoysias was due to the ability to treat torpedo grass.

I had torpedo in my centipede 15 years ago and had to utilize the nuclear option.

Quinclorac works. I think I hit it every 10 days or so until I didn’t see it. It may stunt your zoysia but won’t kill it. I spot treated.

Can anyone confirm that parking is digital this year?


This is a huge win for when I buy them and when I sell them. Having to mail the physical pass or arrange a meet-up was always a PITA.

re: Legit Toyota dealers in Louisiana

Posted by Finnish on 7/26/26 at 12:15 pm to
I just got a new Toyota, so a few datapoints.

Team Toyota - garbage. Car had been sitting on their lot for a bit. I go look at it one evening. As I pull in, I see the manager driving the car out of the lot, by himself. I walk in and am told “you can see it in a few minutes, someone just took it for a test drive. It was a Monday night and I was the only one there. Those stupid games waste my time. I gave them the numbers I was driving to MS to buy that week and said I’d prefer to keep it local if they’d match. They wouldn’t. I drove to Mississippi and bought as they texted and called thinking I was bluffing.

Greg Leblanc - nice, communicative, but just couldn’t make the numbers work on trade-in.

Negotiated one at Shapen Toyota in E TX and they were genuine and made a great deal. I just found a similar deal a few hours closer.

Bought from a MS dealer in Brandon. They were fine. Some dumb add ons but was still the best deal.

USAA here


I have USAA for homeowners, but just dropped their auto. Assumed they would be competitive and that was a mistake. More coverage through Geico for less than half the price.

Qatar did the same. Notice they haven’t been bombed during the last several rounds. These Gulf countries are just paying their ransom to not be bombed.
