Was from Lee high.? I briefly knew those sisters, not in the biblical sense, while at LSU. Outstanding!

Maybe they will hire some of the people ULL is laying off?

I was the last born and my sisters re 15 and 8 years older than me.. I am also the last ditch effort at a boy. I, from a practical standpoint, was raised by different people than they were.
Born when my parents were older, they were just tired. On top of that. My sister was born in 45. My old man had spent several years in the Pacific landing on Islands and that couldn’t have been that enjoyable.
My sisters describe completely different people than the ones I grew up with.
My sisters describe an overbearing hardass jarhead. The guy I grew up with just wanted someone he could throw the ball with and go to games with.
They had the guy who had to figure azimuth’s and how to make a howitzer shell land where it was supposed to.
My double major college grad dad got frustrated trying to teach me addition and subtraction. Forget about long division

Doctor screwing hot nurse practitioner that works for him. Been with his wife since high school. Nurse practitioners husband finds out and shows up to Docs house. Knocks on door and asks to speak with him by name. Beat him to the ground and then stomped his knee causing doctor a lot of pain and long lasting issues. And did it in docs front yard in front of neighbors.
Doc winds up with no wife and no hot girlfriend but a nurse practitioner that he has to work with but can’t have sex with at the risk of a lawsuit if he gets rid of her although,I think she eventually moved on.
Some folks on here know him and probably her

I talked to a very successful med mal lawyer about whether I should get nursing insurance or not. He said “go ahead and give me a pocket to pick. Also, I’ve sued a bunch of nurses but you can’t get blood out of a turnip, unless you got some insurance “.
But at any rate, the lawyer will cast the net wide, subpoena everyone and everything he can and then sort through everything he can find in depositions and discovery hoping to find something.
When in a deposition, answer the question you are asked in the simplest, briefest way possible. If the answer is “yes” answer “yes” even if it seems like the stupidest question you’ve ever heard and isn’t Germain to the situation.
Resist the urge to tell said lawyer why it’s stupid or ANYTHING else. That’s not your job as a witness. Keep it short and sweet.
The lawyer and family don’t want your license, they want money, as much as they can get. They can only get money from the nurse if the nurse is grossly negligent and practicing outside their scope. IE: I went to check his blood pressure but he had abdominal pain so I took out his appendix while I was there. Otherwise, as long as you were competently doing your job, there is nothing to sue you for.
I’ve been deposed several times, never came close to being sued. Can’t get blood from a turnip.

I’m sorry. I wasn’t clear. My question was more about how exchange rates will be affected not about the politics. We are going to Great Britain this summer. We’ve already bought airline tickets and I was wondering if our budget is going to get blown up or not?
How will tariffs affect overseas travel this summer?

Or will these changes affect us at all?

Took drivers ed from coach Carter at Broadmoor in the 70’s in the summer.
Daily trips to athletic House to pick up equipment for practice.
My Dad had already had me practicing and I felt comfortable on the road.
They had started building streets and infrastructure but got caught in an economic downturn and there weren’t any houses. We would drive the streets with almost no traffic. No maintenance done and tall grass everywhere . Drove down a street with a circle at the end and some guy was railing this old girl on the trunk of the car. Dude never stopped my old man just said keep on driving. LOL

re: Feb 8, 1943 marked the end of the Guadalcanal campaign
Posted by chuckie on 2/10/25 at 5:41 pm to FightinTigersDammit
My old man was an artillery officer on Guadalcanal. First action after he got commissioned. Never said much about it. If I asked any questions he would shove a book in my hands and tell me to read up. A” history of the first Marine division in World War II” or Sledges book. But never answered any questions.
re: Mom is going to a nursing home (Updated pg 7)
Posted by chuckie on 1/26/25 at 6:17 pm to Harlan County USA
I think I’ve told this story before. My mom got a brain tumor and Dad almost died trying to take care of her at home. So we moved them to a retirement community. Very nice place. Mom very quickly got too bad for them to take care of.. in the mean time… dad hooked up with a woman who was part of the welcome wagon. We were told mom had 18-24 months. She died inside of a month after the moving in debacle. Within 2 weeks of her death, welcome wagon and Dad wanted to get married.
It was a scandal at the retirement community. End result was they eventually did get married and had a few good years together. I didn’t care for her but Dad seemed happy and she spoiled my daughter.
I could and did swallow a lot of shite for those two things to be true.
You just never know how things might go

re: My Dad Bribed an Entire Surgery Staff Today (Wholesome Story)
Posted by chuckie on 12/16/24 at 6:35 pm to TechBullDawg
My old man was the same. He was in heart cath recovery and he kept smelling something good. They kept it real cold in there. The staff had a hot plate and were warming their gumbo lunch. They had to bribe my Dad with gumbo to keep quiet about it.
When my Mom was in the hospital, he always brought donuts or cookies or something. My old man got a lot of good will doing that stuff

Whose helicopter was he flying?
All the above. Enough good restaurants, HEBs aplenty. The woodlands pavilion has enough good music. Clean, very little crime, much less traffic than Houston. Easy to get around. If it wasn’t for a certain grand daughter being born, we would still be there.
When we moved there, I thought we would go downtown often. Way less than I thought we would. It’s not hard to plan special trips for special events
Would recommend .

Doctors are doing the same thing. Anything to save money and not hire enough help.
Old country church with my wife. Not a member of the choir is under sixty.
They barely keeping it together in a normal singing voice when the chorus goes up a couple of octaves. None of them could get anywhere close. Not only that but as they tried to get up there, they ouldn’t get up to the same place, al of them off key but in different off keys. I lost it. Couldn’t remotely keep my shite together. And being an old school church,bthey had to sing the whole song, 5 verses. So we had to sit through that several rimes. Each time was worse. You could see it coming around and there was nothing I could do. But laugh.
Caught my wife up in the giggles and a few others.

A lot of lawyers have salaries like yo-yo’s. Depends on what walks in the door. I know a small town lawyer had a slip and fall at Walmart where they clearly didn’t follow their own rules for spills. Made bank. Of course, the client had several back surgeries to get through. I wonder if he would say it was worth it

My father was in the 1st Marine division and landed on Guadalcanal. Island hopping and then to Australia.
Moved to another division to train for the Japan invasion. Was on a troop transport when some bombs were dropped and they became an occupying force.
Davy Crocket is also my gggg grandfather through my father’s side.
My wife also had a relative who died at the Alamo. What are the chances.
