re: Inside Rural Corner of America - Cajun Life

[quote]For all you folks who may not know any better. Cajuns are Louisiana's version of white trash. They're no different than a Backwoods Mississippi redneck or a Barefoot Arkansas Hillbilly. They're all the same. [/quote]
You don’t know redneck, sir! They are all similar but have their own flai...

The carts at the RTJ courses in bham have the GPS, range and green slopes. I assume all RTJ courses do.
Played valley and the ridge recently. Courses in good shape for this time of year and they have a lot of slope to those greens. ...

I’m leaning toward the roofie theory too. Being his size I assume he has a good alcohol tolerance and if he was with his friends all day how is he the only one stumbling drunk. ...

You take out like 5 or 6 counties in the Mississippi delta and the states poverty rate, education rate and many others skyrocket.
I have a lot of good friends from the delta. Mainly greenwood, clarksdale, Greenville. Delta people love that way of life and for those that I know their families hav...

[quote]Good stuff. I don't think a lot of people realize how important the Spam, jeeps, 2-ton trucks, steel rails, locomotives and rolling stocks, and avgas were to the Soviet effort. The massive and sweeping sustained and back breaking offensives of 1944 don't happen without this.[/quote]

[quote]I can agree with this. Steph is a great player, and I admit it was really fun to watch GS when they were a novelty. But I really think he changed the game for the worse.
Teams realized it's more efficient if they focus primarily on 3-pointers. Most every guy on the roster is now expected...

Now that I’m older and learning about WW2 again the eastern front is way more interesting to me.
Obviously growing up in America we learn about midway, pearl harbo, Normandy, battle of the bulge but we don’t spend time on operation Barbarossa, the battle of Moscow, siege of Leningrad, Kursk, Kie...

re: A good way to visualize the collective IQ of America: Watch people (attempt to) park.
Posted by Mstate on 3/15/24 at 10:36 am
It’s a pet peeve of mine. I drive a Tahoe so I’ve become used to parking a bigger vehicle and I always make sure I’m lined up correctly. Sometimes it takes a back up and correction.
I hate seeing some a-hole take up two spaces because they don’t pay attention or have no regard for others. ...
