Of late? "Late" meaning 1996-present or what

This is how my first appointment of the morning went.
Me: So what brings you in today?
Patient: I do not know. I think she made the appointment because of my back.
Me: Ok. How long has your back been hurting you?
Patient: I do not know.
Patient's wife: He has been complaining about for 6 weeks now.
You can imagine how the rest of the appointment went.
In an alternate world, this appointment would have gone like this:

I've done it twice with *used* cars. Both from Florida which has 10x the selection Louisiana does, apparently.
The first time doesn't really count because I had my brother (no pics) who lives out of state go check it out and test drive it for me first. That transaction went well. I bought it from some guy who had a small lot on the equivalent of Airline Highway and he was super upfront & responsive.
The second time we rolled the dice and bought my wife a specific model she wanted from a dealership in Miami, sight unseen. We felt a little more confident because it was new enough to still have warranty. That was a clusterfrick. These idiots didn't send us the title, and she was back and forth with them for like three weeks getting transferred around and ignored. I had to call the company's *general counsel* in Washington just to get the fricking title. Once she found out she was dealing with a graduate of the Paul M Hebert Law Center she knew not to frick around and they overnighted it to us asap. :pimp: Car was in good shape though.

My friend who moved out of state was at Carrollton/Arthur with me last week. It's been 10-12 years since he's been to a parade. The one thing he said was "there's a lot more middle aged and elderly women dancing these days. And not well"

re: Walmart had a employee come check if I scanned a one dollar item
Posted by Cold Cous Cous on 12/9/25 at 10:00 am to travelgamer
I was in Galveston and forgot to bring my shaving kit so I walked in to buy the cheapest equate brand disposablerazor - it was *one* dollar (no joke).
They are locked up. The entire razor section is locked up, and this includes the $1 equate brand models. So you have to stand in line (and there was a line) at a certain desk to get a woman to come unlock it for you. Once you get it you go to the front of the store and stand in another line to pay for it. I understand this process for $150 electric razors. But equate brand? wtf. I got so irritated I walked out. It's actually offensive.

This whole process is getting ridiculous. Why not just leave the teams where they are and switch the helmets at this point.

Hm. Presumably he could've reset his residency to Massachusetts and filed in federal court. Would've let him skip the whole sovereign immunity issue. But perhaps that would be conceding that he abandoned the state so they had cause to fire him?
Skadden if you're reading you should've hired me as LC. As you can see I'm a great issue spotter. Stone Pigman made a huge mistake passing on me back as a 2L :casty:
