Just be the person you want the world to be. Dress with class and go with it. Maybe someone will learn from you and do the same next time. Can’t hurt to dress nicely.

It should have been double that amount and hopefully the cop was fired. Terrible story. When you take someone into custody, you are responsible for them. They did nothing for this poor woman.

The photographer survived. Drove his Pinto until it stalled and then his motorcycle. Great picture.

re: AC drip pan help
Posted by zippyputt on 5/16/25 at 7:02 am
I have 2 units. One does this at least 2 times a year. One never does it. It’s the drain line and how it was put in. I shop vac out the water and the pipe and use bleach or white vinegar to do that after I get the water out. Our AC guy came and cleared it once with compressed air when I could not get it to clear. It lasted at least 24 hours before the water came back so you should be fine for a while. I put a water sensor to signal my alarm system in the pain bottom so I now catch it right when it starts to fill instead of getting a full pan. There is a system I saw at Home Depot that drips cleaner in the pipe. I dont know anything about how well it works.
re: MSY parking tips
Posted by zippyputt on 5/15/25 at 7:21 am
I use short term or long term right at the terminal. Very easy and easy walks. IF you reserve a spot, be sure you do it MORE than 24 hours before the day you need to park. Online won’t let you reserve after that. You can check parking lot availability on this link.
When I checked to post this it shows long term and surface lot FULL.

Notice he says “ they fly, PRESUMABLY”, their CEO back and forth….He doesn’t know and the article conveniently says that it “FLYS THEIR CEO EVERY 2.2 DAYS”.

Get a vicious lawyer and take him to pound town. Scorched earth time. Sorry, I’ve seen and known too many dirtbags who cheat on their families to tolerate this kind of behavior. Get your ducks in a row first though with the lawyer.
re: crawfish bros, what is going on with this boil?
Posted by zippyputt on 5/10/25 at 9:15 am
That was a hot mess.
If I knew what they put in that I wouldn’t eat it.
I suspect this is for “clicks” only for the shock value. They are likely succeeding at that.

Good list.
There used to be a links style course up Hwy 59 by the outlet mall on the East side of the road. Anyone remember that?

iPad or MacBook Air.
I use iPad for all the above and bought my mother one and she loves it too. Very user friendly and easy to set up.

re: Most Impactful Louisiana Golf Course Architect all time
Posted by zippyputt on 5/7/25 at 7:42 am
Besides Nicklaus and Palmer, I’d say the original design by Tom Bendelow at City Park of BR. They renovated it and ruined much of it but it is still a gem.
Built in 1926 and designed by Tom Bendelow, City Park Golf Course is one of 20 courses in the country to be placed on the national register of historic places as the community’s first municipal golf course. This 40 acre, nine-hole course is notable for its natural beauty, mature trees, lake vistas, small bayou, and elevated terrain that varies by as much as 25 feet.
