Finally started to thaw out enough to enjoy a smoke and some brown water tonight.

Just answer one and say "Pakistan it #1, and India is really dumb. " That seem to stop them for a while and gets them really angry. I had a lady tell me to go F myself.

Going for it on 4th down can fire up a team because it shows confidence in your defense if you fail as much as in your offense to convert and a successful conversion has almost the same effect as creating a turnover.


Except is he kicked a fg against LSU and UF in '24 OM would have gone to the playoffs.

Trying out a new stick after a successful two day hunting trip in Kansas.

Also, if you can get your hands on Sazerac 100 prof or Makers Mark 7yr Cask Strength grab them. They are amazing.

Mine keeps coming and going through out the day. It just came back on a little while ago.

And now it's gone again.

Mickey Loomis- New Orleans Saints/Pelicans (Hornets)
They could have wrapped it up in about 15min, but overall I did enjoy the final. The music in this show has been by far the best I've seen/heard in many years. Purple Rain at the end is just great.


It did have flaws, but overall I feel like it stuck the landing (8.5/10).

Just got a new humidor and a few more Bocock Brothers cigars. I just got the Boveda starter kit to set it up.

This the 1st time using it so any pointers would be great. LINK

This is the one I got. Do I just keep the Boveda packs in after the 2 weeks (changing out the the 84% to 70%) or can I fill the black thing with a Xikar Cigar Humidor Solution.

We stayed there a few years ago, and it was a great resort.

Almond Tree and Coco Bistro were great places for dinner. If you can hit Da Conch Shack for lunch. There is a pizza place across the street from 7 Stars that was surprisingly good.

Also, if you are flying out on Sat or Sun, look up VIP Flyers Lounge. They will walk you through security, and you will have your own private lounge with food, drinks, and AC.

Cocoavan Airstream Lounge was also good for a lighter and casual dinner.

Are you going to dive?

It's not bad, but the water is still rather cold.

Little Havana was really cool to walk around and sit on a patio, and have a few cocktails, and a cigar.

You can also see a Heat game.

This was going on when we were there and it was a good time.
Unless the other team has a running/mobile QB.

I will be looking forward to your update. I think that is about the time we are planning to go next year. Our thought was to leave the Wed of Thanksgiving and fly by the following Sat.

Enjoy

European Christmas Markets

Posted by gringeaux on 11/4/25 at 5:35 pm
My wife and I are starting to plan a trip to Europe next year. We would like to visit the Christmas markets. She seems set on going to multiple cities and taking the train between them. I’ve also seen a few river cruises with itineraries that would allow us to do the same. Any recommendations? Which would be better? Any suggestions for markets we shouldn’t miss?

TIA
I agree, but they write the contract b/w the coach and LSU not the coach and booster. But I am not sure there has been a time when a school (ie tax payer) has payed a buyout.

I agree with him that's an issue. And it sounds like he wants to ENSURE that the state DOESNT have to foot the bill.


It didn't for Les and it didn't for O. The state does not pay this. Just like it didn't pay for the new op building.

Not going to happen.
Would you rather Nic Anderson and Bauer Sharp or spent that NIL/Roster $ on a starting tackle?
