Thats for Plaquemine or Cameron ?


Plaquemine. I was offered a maintenance mechanic position a couple years ago which would have meant a small raise and a nice boost in PTO per year, but I wasn't interested in driving to Belle Chasse every day from Slidell. Plus I knew they'd be working crazy hours once they started commissioning the plant and I'm not interested in all that OT anymore.

Always wanted to check out Costco, but not enough to drive to Covington or New Orleans. Sam's is good enough since it's right here in town.

Go with the opticore over the cheap bulbs from HD.

A few guys left the plant I work at for Venture. All of them that I've talked to since the switch say they love it.
I'm 44 and with the amount of noise my knees make when I walk I'm sure a replacement is in my future.

Same. Can't stand a tomato but love damn near everything made from them.
Thanksgiving isn't a holiday you decorate for, so people get a jump start on their Christmas stuff.

re: The 3:30 CBS spot

So sad. I loved watching the big game of the week on CBS. That theme music was a staple during football season. These days I forget they even show football on Saturdays
No, I can't sit and watch something that long. I have football on Saturdays as background noise and I put RedZone on for Sunday
Almost every day at work
If I was the long snapper and a kicker ever talked to me like that I think we'd have a problem.

I have a camp chef vertical smoker that I've been happy with. Agree on smoke tubes, they help a lot

3rd takeaway in the half and we're still losing.
Work offshore and can't change a tire? Must be part of the hospitality crew doing laundry and cleaning toilets.

I have a Garmin Vivoactive 4 that I've been happy with. Does everything that you listed. Had it 4 years now and am impressed with the screen also. I work with my hands and it's very scratch resistant.
