re: LaToya Cantrell's travel expenses: $250,000; more than 1 in 5 days spent outside city
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 9:26 pm
Keeping her out the city is probably a very good use of tax dollars, she can’t screw it up more if she isn’t there....

re: Should Landry and La GOP push for a Statewide Electoral college type system?
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 9:24 pm
[quote]Why do you hate protecting minority interests?[/quote]
Your idea could work if you weighted the parishes for population. That is what the electoral college does at the federal level. For example, Wyoming doesn’t count the same as California. ...
re: SWAT Sniper shoots suspect through computer monitor while he has 2 hostages
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 8:53 pm
[quote] There's no guarantee where that bullet goes after going through a computer.[/quote]
If his head was close to the monitor it doesn’t matter, center head will be a head shot hit even if it deflects some. This is totally different if the target is 50 yards on the other side of the monitor, th...
re: Z-grills is offering a $777 Buy 1 Get 10 free promotion
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 8:45 pm
Pellet grills are technology driven and it’s likely no matter which one you buy today in 10 years you will want something different anyway. If you looking for a buy once cry once type purchase go for a charcoal grill like a PK or Weber Summit, or a stick burner like a Workhorse or a Shirley....
re: Favorite vodka drinks
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 8:40 pm
Not big on vodka based cocktails because I find most vodka cocktails are better when a different base spirit is used. For example a Margarita is better than a Kamikaze, and I prefer a Red Snapper to a Bloody Mary. So, if I was asked what cocktail I think works best with Vodka…a Lemon Drop :dunno:...
re: Sub $500 espresso machine....
Posted by cssamerican on 6/9/24 at 7:08 am
Have you ever looked at Flair machines? They are manual machines, but reviews consistently speak highly of the output, value, and I would assume the chances of them breaking is significantly lower. ...

[quote]I wish it was possible to explore the surface of Venus, even via unmanned probes. I wouldn't be shocked to see the ruins of an ancient civilization there. It would be interesting if they had some decipherable written language and documents to determine exactly what happened before they destro...

Lincoln

As bad as some recent Presidents have been, none put in the long term structural changes that centralized all the power in DC like this Mount Rushmore of big government did....

Posted by cssamerican on 6/3/24 at 5:25 am
You probably would be better off seeing if you could drive to the impact zone. Instant death would likely be way better than radiation poisoning death. Who would even want to survive an all out nuclear war anyway?...
re: We should tax Fast Food like cigarettes to help deter consumption.

[quote] That’s why it exploded so quickly. The fraudulent claims that fat is bad for you, and makes you fat, was a major part of the problem. Peoples habits didn’t change overnight, but the ingredients in what they were eating did.[/quote]
I'm not saying you're 100% wrong, the food most people are ...
re: So all these Millions and Millions of wasted TAXPAYERS money to convict Trump
Posted by cssamerican on 6/2/24 at 5:03 am
[quote]Breh no one’s above the law.[/quote]
When you retroactively change the statute of limitations on a misdemeanor, invent a novel theory to elevate that misdemeanor to a felony by implying guilt for a federal crime that was never charged, and then multiply the counts for each ledger entry, it d...
re: We should tax Fast Food like cigarettes to help deter consumption.
Posted by cssamerican on 6/2/24 at 4:41 am
[quote]I think one of the reasons we have turned the corner on cigarette consumption is taxes. It has worked. I smoked for 10 years out of college and quit 29 years ago. No way I could spend that kind of money again to help destroy my health. I think this has had a positive effect of health care cos...

The problem is when other people cause my costs to go up, I kinda do care. The amount of obese people are causing health insurance premiums increases; however, making someone else pay more taxes is never the answer. Per...
