not doubting but are you sure they are monarch caterpillars?


Yep, I have had quite the production for several years so I know my monarchs. I was shocked to see so many. I haven't even seen a single one flying about to lay the eggs, but I am 100% positive these are monarch caterpillars.
Mine are all growing back out for Spring - I have around 20 milkweed plants. I checked yesterday and I currently have about 30-40 tiny caterpillars already! This feels too early? My plants are only just growing out.

I guess I'll let nature take its course but these suckers are going to trim my plants back to stalks and be out of leaves in no time. Anyone have ideas on why they are here so early and if that is an issue? I'm going to feel bad when they run out of food. I have forbidden myself to buy any more plants, too.
Catholic HS in New Orleans... our [married] science teacher/PE coach was sleeping with a sophomore student. He was probably ~24/25 yrs old at the time.

I recently looked him up on facebook and he has not aged well, is divorced, and dating a lesbian looking woman.

Good times at Catholic schools...

public schools.


If you think traditional public schools use 100% of tax payer dollars properly, ethically and honestly... sadly you would be mistaken.

Accountability is a problem with ALL public schools - including charter schools. In this instance, Impact Charter's board should also be held accountable. It is laughable what this woman has been allowed to do under a board who should be getting financial reports monthly.

quote:

Funnily enough our district is open to hosting a charter but no one has applied because they would have to follow the same accountability laws as public schools and they would need to come up with their own funding.


Charter schools already have the same accountability. They also don't need to come up with their own funds... it is a formula set by the state and is the same funding a traditional public school gets.

Does your wife fill up her own gas at ANY gas station in Baton Rouge? Does she shop alone at ANY store along Siegan Lane or hell anywhere in Baton Rouge?

Because that is more dangerous than using public transportation that MILLIONS of New Yorkers and visitors use daily in NYC...

As you should have. It always makes me chuckle when I see grown men from Southern Louisiana state how they would never dare ride the subway in NYC.

re: Flying out of BTR?

I have been parking when boarding started, and still made it on the plane with a few minutes to spare at BTR.

Security has never taken me more than 5 minutes. And I am a frequent flier. One hour before takeoff is plenty of time.

-5? I'll have to work on this, I was going for -10 to sit right at a 0

I think that together, we make a 10
This is the first time I have changed it since 2010... I don't know how I feel about it yet.
That is so 2021, catch up.
