Depends what you're looking for and for who, but Dauphin Island is great.

But do not speed, those cops need all the revenue they can get and write a regular speeding ticket a reckless driving ticket.

There is an old goat ranch golf course that is awesome and beautiful scenes of the Gulf and sand dunes.

Good restaurant called Pirates at the golf course and one or two bars down there.

Best fresh bakeries in New Orleans?

Posted by Fishwater on 5/5/25 at 9:59 am
Taking the wife to New Orleans for Mother's Day weekend. She loves a fresh bakery.

We love the Croissant D'Or Patisserie in the Quarter, but would rather somewhere Uptown or CBD.

Thanks.
What are some good musical instrument stores in New Orleans?

Looking for guitars, basses, mandolin, etc.

Thanks.

re: Any surf guitar players on here?

Yeah, love surf guitar. Get you a good clean amp with a spring reverb and crank the reverb.

Surfey Bear makes a great "pedal" with a true spring reverb.

Of course, you need a Fender Strat or Jaguar.

Dick Dale is the king of surf rock. Plenty of youtube videos out there teaching the classic surf rock licks.

Texas has 10 law schools. The state population is 31.3 million. That means there is 1 law school per every 3.13 million people

Louisiana wants 5 law schools....for a state with 4.6 million people. That would come out to a ratio of 1 law school for every 920k people



Louisiana really has five law school already. Mississippi College in Jackson has a law school that teaches Louisiana Civil Code Law and preps students for the Louisiana Bar Exam. A lot of North La students go to MS College since it is closer to Monroe and Shreveport.

Good people to have on your side...

I listen to a classic rock and blues station out of Mobile, another station, and occastionally the NPR station until they go too full libtard on me...

Other times I listen to Nugs and Spotify.

Sometimes I listen to WWOZ online.
We added on a garage to our home. We have notified our insurance agent and he has asked how much additional coverage do we want to add.

Do we just add the cost the contractor charged us for the build?

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

Looks like it was put out extremely quickly following the manual.

Dental Insurance not from an employer?

Posted by Fishwater on 4/15/25 at 8:10 pm
Those of you who work for yourself and do not have dental insurance through your spouse, where do you have your dental insurance through?

Marketplace?

I have two new majesty palms from Lowes I purchased two weeks ago. They are larger than ones I have purchased in years past. They both have fronds that were grown up but have not bloomed or opened. The plant seems stalled out. Anything I can do to help the fronds open or do I need to cut them off? No other new growth, but the plants do not seem to be dying. Both are green. Thanks.
There is also a video of a mine I think out in Bessemer that where a house was an old moonshine or gambling house with a basement that had access to a mine and an underground river under Bham.
Love that account.

There is an abandoned mine under the Federal Reserve bank down 280 that had to be cemented up so someone wouldn't try to dig up into the floor of the bank and rob it. Seriously.
