Show us on the doll where Hellen touched you.
Driving to my parents' house from LSU in a rainstorm one afternoon. Got to the Sherwood Forest Blvd. overpass and started hydroplaning because I was obviously driving too fast. I did a couple of 360's and then smashed into a retaining wall because they were doing some construction. In hitting the wall, I smashed my face into the steering well and got a nice fat lip. I was driving a '74 Camaro and the seatbelts were pretty primitive. Sank car in mud and got stuck.

A tow truck driver stopped to help me (for a price of course). Just as I agree, a carload of weightlifters stop and help push me out of being stuck. Told the tow truck driver sorry, thanked the guys and went on my way.

Driviing in the rain freaked me out for a long time afterward.

I have a good friend who grew up in the northern part of Wisconsin near Green Bay. He always told me the only place in Wisconsin that is not pretty much 99% White is Milwaukee.


When I went to see LSU play at Lambeau, we all stayed in Appleton and of course hung out in Green Bay for the game. Definitely 99%. It felt like I had gone back in time to the '50's where everyone was good natured and polite to one another. Everywhere we went the people were great.

My Dad was born there the next year.
Would be great to have a GIF of that.

He was arguing proximity. These stores are close. On I-10 alone in Texas you have large ones in Baytown, Katy, and Luling.

This is reason enough to do it. Go for it.

Too close to the one in Lafayette


No it’s not. Driving from Baytown, TX to Giddings, TX you will pass 4
Buc-ees in a two hour drive. One in Baytown, one in Cypress, one in Waller and one in Giddings. The ones in Cypress and Giddings are the smaller type stores.

Louisiana could use way more than two on I-10.
Why they hating on Elvis? He is still The King.
