re: Tsunami downtown

Posted by BigB0882 on 5/13/24 at 4:05 pm

The Thai spaghetti is really very good for something so simple. I would add shrimp to that and have it as my meal. I have only been to the new Highland location recently but I assume it is available downtown, as well. I do know they do fried rice and don’t do that downtown. Or, at least that is ...

re: LSU Gymnastics are NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!!!!

Posted by BigB0882 on 4/22/24 at 5:48 pm

Two things: 1. The internet rumor mill is absolutely going crazy. Saying that Jay Clark is going to UGA. It makes sense but also makes no sense. What do you think? Hopefully, if there is an offer from UGA, LSU exceeds it. 2. Anyone have any clue when the championship shirts will be avail...

Beam is going to be so nerve wracking. If we can be within .2 or so of Stanford going into floor I will feel good. We can absolutely crush floor if we just do our usual. Not sure Stanford has the big vaults but I could be way wrong....

Also, floor scoring was definitely the loosest. That bodes really well for us going into floor in the final rotation. The last Cal gymnast had a slide back on her final pass and still had more than half the judges give her a 9.95 Edit: did anyone think Bryant’s vault should have been a little ...

Our mistakes were all aggressive. I don’t mind that one bit. They still did decently. Arkansas already took themselves out without errors from others. I’m hoping to see some stuck dismounts on bars....

The fact that Tom Pelphrey wasnt even nominated for any awards (that I remember) is insane. He should have won them all. He does get to sleep with Kaley Cuoco so I guess he is doing alright,...

I’m on episode 3 and liking it. I hear it starts to take off after this point. I did start reading the first book so up to this point a lot of it is coming back to me. However, I never finished so I don’t know when I will be totally out of the loop. I need to find the books and pick them back up...

re: Is it worth for my sister-in-law to go to Disney/Universal who has high blood pressure?

They give those high blood pressure warnings before the rides just to cover their arse. Unless her blood pressure is so high that she is going to have a stroke at any moment, she will be fine. ...

Thanks. I forget about Publix because we don’t have them here. Their website seems to show they have something similar to Alexander’s but not as many pieces. I will give a call soon and see what they can do. I don’t trust Rouses with their food handling....

Gulf Shores - Sushi tray options

Maybe this should go in the travel thread? Not sure… We will be in the Gulf Shores area this summer staying at a cabin on the beach. We were wondering if there is anywhere nearby that you can pick up a sushi tray from. For reference, if you are from Baton Rouge you can get a really decent sush...

I had it done about 4 years ago and my only issue is my left eye seems to be getting worse. I still don’t use contacts or glasses but if I close my right eye I can tell how off my left eye is. Still worth it. Even if I have to eventually do a “touch up” it will be worth it. It’s been so amazing ...

In a quad meet you get to count all the wins but the score does not get counted more than once for your NQS. So LSU added 3 wins to their record but the 198.425 just goes in with the top 6 scores 1 time....

Both of Savs landings have been open to the .050 deduction for not holding her landing position for a full second. The second begins when the arms go above the head and stop moving. She clearly sticks both landings but the final position is not a full second, most clearly her bars landing. Her sc...

I’d also like to point out how Bryant lands with her feet totally together. Oklahoma lands all their vaults with their feet so far apart they could give birth. But they get the same scores....
