Would you mind saying who you went with? I am looking at putting one in currently. Thanks :cheers:

I'm flying them for the first time with low expectations to Chicago from N.O. I plan on only bringing a back pack and boarding with a water, snack, and movie on my phone. I think that should take care of everything. I'm sitting in a regular seat on the way there and their Front Big Seat on the way back to compare for future trips. I will report back here after the trip.

Firefly is the best restaurant in PCB
No doubt! One of the best meals I have had.

I have played out there several times and I find the food average and overpriced. I haven't sat in the restaurant but I have had some of the restaurant dishes as well as the taco bar tacos. I got a coke for $3.01 the other day and it was just a fountain drink in a 16 oz cup.

re: Nature bites back, woman dragged in water hand feeding a shark
Posted by hoppinnissan on 7/3/18 at 2:24 pm
This is an example of a tour operator letting someone with no experience do something they have no business doing. I dive with sharks all the time and enjoy it. Most people think nurse sharks are harmless but don't realize they are called nurse sharks because they suck in the water around their prey extremely hard and pump it through their gills. Odds are she didn't let go of the fish she was feeding and her hand got pulled in with the fish.

The only thing my wife really wants is a really pretty beach and pretty water
Not to hijack the thread but I have been all over the Caribbean and Turks and Caicos has some of the nicest beaches and water I have seen. Grace Bay is always on the list of world's best beaches. There are a bunch of smaller bays around the island that are just as nice and you can have to yourself. It is also much more industrialized than Belize if that matters to you.

Turks and Caicos has some of the nicest beaches and water out off all of the Caribbean destinations I have been to. Check out some of the other beaches on the island other than Grace Bay and you will have it to yourself. My wife and I had a stretch of beach to ourselves all day and decided to lose the bathing suits since it was so empty. :cheers:

It was definitely interesting to watch but it was kind of like watching a car crash. I don't think I could have put up with dealing with him on set all that time. I felt for the director and cast mates. You could see their expressions and body language that were just cringe worthy at times.

Can't wait! Curious to see where they go with the story lines after last season's ending.

Posted by hoppinnissan on 11/16/17 at 9:20 am
Surprised how many here appendix carry. I always get grief from friends when they find out I appendix carry.
I used to do 4-5 o'clock with an Alien Gear and my Shield but now I appendix carry with a CYA IWB kydex holster

I have always been a fan of Les as a man but not so much as a coach. I have listened to all of the episodes and he is clearly what we have always heard. Loves LSU, family man, and very loyal. Great guy just too stubborn to keep his job.

Not sure if common knowledge but had to share my disappointment this afternoon. Heard Etta James' "I'd Rather Go Blind" today and Chris Stapleton's version of "Tennessee Whiskey" is a ripoff of this song. Thought his take on this song was unique.
SIAP---searched and found zilch.
I hate country and my wife was telling me how good this song was. She played it for me and 5 seconds in I said "This is a rip off of I'd Rather Go Blind" what a crock! She didn't believe me so I let her listen to Etta James and she agrees. lol

I have been watching since the first episode and have read the comics after the third or fourth season of the show. I'm still watching because of the time invested in watching but I have found myself a little less interested every season. I honestly forgot it was starting again and wasn't all that excited to watch.
re: Rheumatologist Dr...anyone here have RA with pointers
Posted by hoppinnissan on 10/16/17 at 10:59 am
My wife was just diagnosed with a form of arthritis after years of joint pain and she is only 30. Bad thing is majority of auto immune diseases can't be diagnosed medically but only clinically. Definitely get multiple opinions before a doctor starts trying to give you agressive treatment. Good luck!
re: Mooyah Burgers
Posted by hoppinnissan on 10/12/17 at 8:42 am
I hardly ever get anything else because it is on of my favorites. :lol: Everything else is good there also.
Pro tip: get the sweet potato fries with the burger and ask for a cup of the praline sauce they use on the bread pudding. :cheers:

Don't be scared of the dock rooms with no AC. We went in March and it was warm during the day but was cold with the louvers open and fans running. The dock rooms have good water views and are convenient to get to the restaurant and dive shop/boats. If you stay in the higher end rooms on the "private key" you have to take a small boat over to the restaurant/ dive shop every time you need something. Plus, you have to worry about sand flys. That's not the case on the main island.

I find the Mooyah by Cabela's is much better than the one on Siegen. The sweet potato fries with honey are awesome.
Philay's in Gonzales is one of my favorite burgers "in town" it's a good sized, homemade patty with good flavor and it's on a sourdough bun. Griffin Grill is pretty good also.

Spent at Anthony's Key and dove all week. It's good diving and they do have a shark dive you can do if you are interested in that. There are also dolphins that are kept at a smaller island right off of the main island of the resort. Definitely do the dive "Spooky Channel" if you are decently experienced. Let me know if you have any questions. You couldn't beat the value of Anthony's Key when I went.
