Get your GP to prescribe Lamisil. It's a pill form fungicide. I fully cured a case of toenail fungus that had lasted about 35 years. Grew up on a dairy and lived in rubber boots. Tried all the creams and folk remedies, and nothing would touch it. Six months on Lamisil, and athlete's foot is a thing of the past.
Bonus: It keeps the swamp arse at bay when you're taking it. I pop like one pill every week in June-August since my job has me in the heat.

I thought this was going to be about realtors’ glamour shots.
Worked next door to a realtor’s home a few days ago. Her vehicle was parked there with her mug printed on the back window. At some point she came out of the house and was digging around in the SUV. At a glance, you would have thought it was someone else entirely. Pic showed tall and reasonably attractive. Reality showed short and wide.

Kip was pretty chill in-person. Liked fat bottomed white girls, like most red blooded Americans.
Mike Foster always seemed like he was in a hurry when I’d see him at LSU. Family friend was on his LSP security detail. Said Mike was pretty nice in person.

Referring to tools in my well-organized work truck: “If you can’t find it, you don’t have it.”
Mine (twins) are sharing a 2007 Tacoma. Stumbled on a family member selling it, and it has made a helluva first vehicle for them. Bought it at 200K miles, and if it survives them for a couple more years, it may be my retirement ride. It’s Toyota number 5 on the farm, and we haven’t killed one yet.

Fiber bar in the front seat of my work truck. And a Dr. Pepper.
Went up there last December. Believe I posted on here that I was waiting in line. Interesting thing to me was that the building’s lean affects you on the stairs. I’m a fairly tall gringo, so there wasn’t much overhead clearance for me.
Probably one of the best things I experienced in Italy was at the baptistery on the Pisa site. Like every half hour or so they’d have a monk (priest?) come in and sing. Or basically just go through the scales. The acoustics in there were amazing, and the notes would reverberate around the stone walls. The sounds were incredible.

re: Will you make it to America 300?
Posted by FCP on 7/6/26 at 11:27 am to The Truth 34
Hope so. I guess. I’d be 102. Thinking that getting 200 and 250 in my lifetime is enough. Although I was barely 2 years old for the 200th and obviously have zero recollection.
Great grandma made it to 105+, so I guess there’s a chance. She did that with a cigar smoking habit and so many Coca Colas that their truck had her home as a stop when they were delivering to area stores.

Better Fireworks - L'Auberge Extravaganza or WBRZ's Fireworks on the Mississippi?
Posted by FCP on 7/3/26 at 11:07 pm
Pulled the short straw and got nominated to take 4-5 teens to see fireworks tomorrow night. I see that there are shows at both L'Auberge and WBRZ's annual Fireworks on the Mississippi.
I'd probably prefer heading south, since it's farther from NBR. On the other hand, if the WBRZ firework show is demonstrably better, I'd just deal with the area's denizens. It has probably been 40+ years since I've attended a professional firework show, so I'll defer to the OT's collective wisdom on which is the better choice.
Oh, and for your troubles:

Whatever Doug Flutie and Frank Thomas are hawking. Can’t stand their commercials, and if I were ever in the market for the BS pills they promote, I’d actively avoid their brand.

re: Who else cuts grass at 4:00 am besides Pastor Spell?
Posted by FCP on 7/1/26 at 1:01 pm to LivingstonLaw
I’ve lived among meth heads for, well, all my life. Fighting a neighbor for *reasons* and cutting grass at 4AM is exactly the kind of thing I’d expect from them.
Got a 2010 and a 2020. Unfortunately, they will likely never be for sale.
Dealership offered to buy back the 2020 at full price paid after about 2 years. But, all they had to replace it cost more and was defective (turbo V6).

re: IIHS crashed a 2026 Blazer into a 1996 Blazer

Regardless, that '83 Chevy tank survived just fine. Some dents for sure, but my poor $7K truck suffered $5K in damages.

Of course, the Chevy driver had no insurance, and, as a poor college student, I didn't have anything but minimum liability limits. So, I got to pay out of pocket. OTOH, the Chevy driver had multiple outstanding warrants, so at least I got to watch him get hauled off in a police car.

re: Southern Baptists vote to ban churches with women pastors

quote:SBC member here, and that is where I landed on the vote. My particular issue is that I’m concerned the blanket prohibition of female pastors (which is Biblical) will be expanded to shut down other areas of female ministry.
There is a portion of that 2,000 that voted against it because they felt it was unnecessary,
To that point, there has apparently already been a female podcast host who has been disassociated from the SBC because leading a podcast was close enough to leading a church. No idea on the specific details; it was being talked about in SS yesterday.
