Looking like the masterminds behind the Whitmer Kidnapping plot may have been FBI agents


I don't see anywhere that they say its FBI Agents? It looks like informants - in others words convicts that give information to the FBI from the seedy side.
"The Ultimate Sales Machine" by Chet Holmes - I bought the audio book and would listen while I was on the road. He gives great points generating sales and never giving up.

One that hit home for me "I could sit outside a business and get turned down in my head before ever stepping foot inside" not a direct quote, but once you've been turned down, you can make many excuses inside your head as to why someone will not buy from you.

#1 thing for a sales person is to bring value to your customers - know your product and listen to your customer's questions and concerns - get back to them if they have a question. If you are not reliable enough to get back to them, they will do business with someone that is.
Little Big Cup - Arnaudville, La

St John Restaurant - St Martinville

Cafe Josephine - Sunset (as was already recommended earlier)

All small town restaurants that have excellent food.

Whatever happened to the former LSU tight end/fullback from Crowley, who was a Tiger star from 1997-2001?


He worked for Wells Fargo lending on Sherwood Forest if I remember correctly back in the early 2000's.
What is so interesting about this? Can I have my 10 minutes back?

re: Firestone vs Michelin

Firestone is a good tire - Firestone/Bridgestone is the same company. Both very good tires. Firestone will get you 70k mileage warranty for their premium tire and Bridgestone 80k.

Day 3 reservation holder. Order is in!


1st day reservation holder... Wildtrack Bronco incoming. It is for my wife, but I do plan to put a few miles on it myself. My order was finalized 2 weeks ago and have been tinkering with it ever since... April 8th is the last day to make changes.
I was able to hang out with Rob once and he is one of the funniest and coolest people that I've ever been around. A really good guy. Definitely one that deserves everything he gets.

Southdown’s


I can't believe it took until halfway to the second page to mention this one...
2020 GMC AT4 with 10 speed and 3.0L Dmax... Great power and most of time you can't tell it is even shifting. 6th GM truck and definitely the best one yet. Would recommend.

Greatest start in basketball game history?


Did you ever see the LSU start in Shaq's freshman year vs Ga Tech in the NCAA tournament. Chris Jackson Soph year.

Ga Tech won the game and LSU flew out to a huge lead.

Where are you located?

Hebert Tire & Auto in Lafayette - Toyo & Firestone/Bridgestone dealer

Stay local... Everyone complains about big corporations taking everything over and then recommends Walmart and Costco for tires - the employees are paid minimum, so don't be surprised with sub par work.

Adam4LSU will solve this


Good dude, but I doubt his sister in law is dating this one.

I'm sure most of these were probably overdosed accidents that were not properly reported (dumped because they were scared).
Call Hebert Tire & Auto in Lafayette - much better prices than that. 337-988-4241

re: How much can you negotiate off MSRP?

I have the same truck but went with the 3.0L Diesel... The best decision I've ever made (so far anyway). I love this truck. 9k off is what I ended up with. I had a lot of equity in my 2 trades too, so a good deal was done in my opinion.

They are planning to finish construction on the homes as well as a farm, horse stables, lake, and tiny house cabin by next spring. Eventually, Scott said they want the land to become a hub for tourism with a farm-to-table restaurant, an Airbnb experience, an amphitheater and a conference center.


I'm not sure they will be able to fit half of that on just 97 acres...
The hospitals are not making money during this time because elective surgeries are not being done.

They do have Covid patients that cost more to care for because of the extra precautions they are taking. Plus not being able to do the money making part of the hospital business is hurting them.

How close do you think they were to winning a national title? Harvey Williams thinks if Arnsparger had stayed LSU that they win it all in 1987. So what do you all think? Memories of the season?


I was 13 years old and it was the first year I was really a fan (attended my first game in 1986). Tommy Hodson to Wendell Davis was and unbelievable combination.

Ron Sancho & Eric Hill at LB on defense along with Chris Carrier at Safety - Harvey Williams & Sammy Martin with Nacho blocking (Dr Nacho now) on offense...

One flaw that Arnsparger always had was his bend but don't break defense (I know Archer was HC in '87, but was same defense)... soft between the 20's, but would tighten up. Wasn't a real attacking defense like we see in recent years.
