re: Where is the ideal spot to live in New Orleans?

I vote Lakeview, but I am biased.
With unlimited income and no worries of being inconvenienced because you don’t have to be anywhere, Audubon Place, St. Charles, anywhere adjacent to Audubon Park. I’m sure there are extravagant penthouses in warehouse and downtown areas as well.
Old Metry near the Country Club.

You know that you can re-watch virtually every game within 24 hours on YouTube, anytime you want?

Too far from everything. Too generic… doesn’t even feel like New Orleans.

re: Not A Big Colin Cowherd Fan, But He Nails it Here Regarding LSU

think he’s implying there’s no point in what LK did in trying to get those players who went to mini camps back as LSU is already loaded. I personally agree with that and didn’t see the point in doing all this. But I’m not losing sleep over it at the end of the day as it was ruled legal and everyone else is doing it.
It would have been negligent on Lane’s part if he didn’t pursue all available talent options.
Additionally, the relationship was there with these players and they wanted to reunite with their coach.

Gee…
One is the citizen of a communist country that is an enemy who would like to subjugate us;
And, the other is a freedom loving capitalist who supports the principles of the USA.
See how easy it is to tell the difference?
I fully support this young woman and encourage her to continue (wholeheartedly).
I just solve that problem by bringing my own whiskey.

With a long wheelbase vehicle it is the only way to get into a typical parking spot many times.
Ever use a pallet Jack or forklift? There is a reason that the wheels that turn (laterally) are at the back not the front of these.
I’m tired of explaining this to soyboys.

We like Driftee by Urban South (the local micro-brewery).

The common doughnut is at the bottom of my culinary pyramid. I may have eaten 3 in the last decade.
re: At what age did you stop crossing your legs the man way and start the woman way?

Well I’ve never been able to cross my legs that way, nor sit on the ground “Indian style”.
None of the men on my paternal side can. It’s a hip anatomy thing.

For a large batch of jambalaya I usually go closer to 2:1
Xanax. I’m really not pissy, but this whole jambalaya and rice topic will get me going.
Oh, and sometimes spelling and grammar.

It’s really fricking easy: twice as much liquid as rice. Boil off the water until level with pot contents, lower as low as possible and cover. Don’t open for at least 20 minutes… longer if a bigger pot. That’s it.
And medium grain… period. Long grain Mahatma means you’re not a cook. Don’t even get me started on par-boiled (zatarain’s) rice.

re: Things you find out from family later in life.
Posted by GusMcRae on 8/23/26 at 7:11 pm to LSUDVM1999
There was a family friend that would frequently show up at my grandparents house for Sunday meals and holidays, etc.
I found out in my late teens that she was almost assuredly an illegitimate child of my grandfather. Her “father” was away at war when her mother conceived and gave birth. It was just an accepted and unspoken thing.
On my wife’s side, my SIL got real into ancestry and whatever23, and DNA evidence says that their great grandfather couldn’t have sired their grandfather. Another WWII love child. All came from the bastard.
People have been getting jiggy wit it forever.

Our caboose moved out a few years ago, but has been back with us the last year and a half.
Her clinicals were in NOLA, and we have a spare garage apartment, so it’s more of a hybrid situation.
She has 1 semester left and then all 3 will be living independently and self-supporting.

We should organize a massive barbecue cook-off a la Hogs for the Cause in Dearborn during Ramadan.
