Yo...
Couple of thoughts from far too much experience in the field
- PW managers are cool, use the one built into Google, Windows, or Apple and let them generate the random pw for you.
- Use 2FA when ever offered. as noted earlier, it is a essentially a new pw each time
- Use PassKeys when offered. It is the new gold standard for MFA and slick user experience. the site/service you are using has to offer them. Removed the PW from the equation
- it is OK to write down passwords (for example the master PW for apple, google, PW manager, etc....). I would NOT carry with you.
Leave it in a desk drawer at your house in an envelope. If they break in to steal that, it is either A. Game over already for you or B. you have some crazy stuff you do online

Fun topic!
Not sure it’s been mentioned but getting a 90s or early 2000s BMW three series convertible is always a way to go. I have an E30 convertible, but those are getting harder to find in many of them have been properly beat up
You can still find a pretty decent E36 convertible, which has a nice retro feel for a reasonable price
Make sure to find a manual and yes, make sure to set aside some money for whatever plans on breaking that particular year
Also + one for Miata’s, they are a hoot when driven properly

Follow-up, since it is an 11am kick-off, sports bar (think chimes or Buff WW - but not BWW) near tulane or that area of the town for the rest of the day?
thanks!
thanks!
LSU 20-10 or UGA 20-10

Both teams are highly ranked though Georgia is higher…both won 20–10
Georgia on the road, but got some calls. LSU at home with some turnovers.
Which win was better?

Restaurant recommendations for New Orleans, army/Tulane game
Posted by St. Pete Tiger on 9/27/25 at 5:55 am
Geaux Tigers,
Bringing my dad, West Point class of 66, to the army/Tulane game on October 18. Will be flying in that Friday afternoon and looking for a solid restaurant recommendation. Will be staying downtown French Quarter area, but willing to Uber really any place
I’ve been to New Orleans often, but either for college shenanigans 25 years ago or on business trips
Not looking for super high-end, but something where we could enjoy a nice meal and a couple of cocktails with it
Thanks
Beat navy!

Not sure if serious? It was the command the first time humans left earth orbit and arguably as big as the moon landing it self
