I had only 1 question when I clicked on this thread, "what was the alteration?"
it did not say in the link or your post, only that 2 words in a Ted Cruz question were changed that changed the meaning.
anyone know what the change was?

especially after you add up all of the extra fees and shipping
shill-bidding is the norm. Few sellers are willing to allow you a true bargain

re: Hot Tub Time Machine - April…who is she?

She was my least favorite part of an otherwise fun and immersive movie.
Very peculiar instead of the "cool" she was supposed to be, and just weird looking.

Longs peak, 14,249 ft
Trailhead at 9374 feet, 4,875 feet elevation change, 15 mi total hike there and back
Ballbuster, especially for a flatlander South Louisiana boy
Summited on my 5th and final try over about 35 year stretch, with weather the limiting factor

My buddies and I saw it a second time to count how many people he killed. I believe it was up into the 150s.
ETA; only 41 according to Google

The original short story, "Arena", on which that episode was based, was a better story with a more realistic and better ending
similar to star trek, humans and an alien species are at war. Knowing that if the war was allowed to continue, the victorious race would not have enough strength left to endure, an all-powerful entity plucks a single human and a single alien off the final battlefield, and puts them into a battle arena to fight to the death, with the loser's race to be eliminated entirely
In a battle of wits and strength, the human Wins, killing the alien and ensuring the continuance of the human race
in the star trek version, Kirk wins, but refuses to kill the alien, then lectures the all-powerful entity about compassion, and humans are allowed to live. I do not remember what happened to his opponent, but I am pretty sure they were not eliminated. It was cheesy

Just learned Sean "Samwise Gamgee" Astin is John "Gomez Adams" Astin's son
John Astin also had a great recurring character on Night Court

I'd like to see a movie about Jean Lafitte, culminating in the Battle of New Orleans
re: When BK was lighting up Hankton, was that because of something Hilton screwed up?
Posted by luvdoc on 10/12/25 at 9:51 am to BayouCowboy
The defender swatted his foot just as/before the ball arrived, meaningfully throwing off his position / balance. Probably still should have caught it, but it wasn't clean, and the underthrown ball was the underlying cause of that.
re: When there is an official replay review, why isn't the replay shown in the stadium?
Posted by luvdoc on 10/12/25 at 9:22 am to TigerintheNO
The camera guys are too busy showing shots at the crowd.
They barely even use those beautiful screens to show replays at all, much less during an extended break from official review

Nothing pisses me off more than blatant superfluous product-placement. You should be ashamed Mr Grand TM (all rights reserved)
While they still have some living figgs at burden on Essen, the original site where their experimental orchards were grown, including many figs, persimmon citrus, pawpaw and others, they rooted cuttings and planted them at the Hammond station 5-10 years ago.
The ones still at burden don't seem to have had any interval care
It was done as part of an effort to make burden more of a money-generating public-access site, with some of the orchard removed for events like the Halloween hay bale maze

Never heard of that one. Been to the arboretum sale many times and bought pretty much everything I would ever want that is there.
I'll keep a lookout for the AG center sale in Hammond next year. Don't be afraid to post when it's coming up

The prices are generally a bit better. Selection a bit more esoteric, lots of natives. a nice event to browse through
Those both look great!
You ought to pick up some Louisiana Iris on your next trip down the atchafalaya for the under-sexdeck bed
Your many Chickasaw plum, the Odom Chickasaw plum, and climbing aster are other natives that will light up your property
The passion flower you gave me is going berserk. Lots of frittery butterflies and caterpillars. Unfortunately, also lots of suckers popping up in the yard. I may need to move it

re: Are box turtles mystical creatures?

Box turtles and speckled kingsnakes are my favorite most magical accidental wildlife encounters.
