re: I guess DFW didnt get the memo about climate change
Posted by LSUGUMBO on 5/5/24 at 11:58 am
There have been 5 years and 7 springs that have recorded more rain since records have been kept.
Sounds like it’s something that happens every so often. I bet when it happened 100 years ago, they didn’t say ‘I bet this is Henry Ford’s doing- damn motorized automobiles!’ ...

re: Unfrosted (Netflix) - Jerry Seinfeld, Melissa McCarthy.... It's a PopTart movie
Posted by LSUGUMBO on 5/4/24 at 10:07 pm
It was entertaining. Like the rest of you, I probably won’t watch it again, but it was a fun watch.
Glad it was on Netflix- I wouldn’t have paid to rent it or see it in theaters. ...

Stay East of I-49 and you’re generally safe. Broadmoor, South Highlands (NOT HIGHLAND), Broadmoor Terrace, South Broadmoor.
If you want newer construction, The Haven, Riverbrooke (patio homes, lower maintenance yards), Kings Crossing, Kings Point are all along E.Kings Hwy and are all very safe. ...

I watched the whole interview again just now with my wife, and cracked up all over again. Then I went and found the Bob Einstein joke and almost passed out I laughed so hard!
Great great interview. We’re watching ‘Unfrosted’ tomorrow...

[quote]Maybe a TAG or even a Breitling.[/quote]
Can I be your nephew? :lol:
If you spend $3-4000 on high school, you're setting an awfully high bar for college graduation. I agree with the watch- it's what a lot of seniors are getting instead of Senior Rings, but I would lower the bar a little...
re: Isnurance company denied my roof hail damage claim. Options?
Posted by LSUGUMBO on 5/3/24 at 11:49 am
[quote]Yep. I don't know the solution, but a roofer walking down a street claiming every house has damage after a storm really can't be 100% right.[/quote]
Depends on how old the roof is- when they inspected my 15 year old roof, the guy said "Oh yeah- you've got hail damage" before he even got on...
re: Do you legitimately enjoy your job?
Posted by LSUGUMBO on 5/2/24 at 8:41 am
In general, I like my job and the people I work with. Of course there are things/people/situations that aren't my favorite, but it's not a constant 'I hate this place and these people'
The absolute worst part is being a contract employee in the oil & gas industry. When things take a downturn, yo...

Why not trade in the 12 while it’s still worth something? As long as they’re offering $1000 credit to trade in a 3 year old phone, I’ll take the ‘free’ new phone they offer. And when the reb...
re: Newk’s Baton Rouge
Posted by LSUGUMBO on 4/29/24 at 3:12 pm
We ate at the one in Shreveport pretty frequently when it first opened. Fresh food, good portions, decently priced.
My mom took me to lunch there a couple of weeks ago, and the amount of roast beef on my French Dip was laughable. Still tasted good, but the sandwich was all bread. ...

Taco kits from Sam’s/Costco feed the 4 of us with leftovers. Comes with everything except a side and/or chips, including the greatest Lime Crema I’ve ever eaten. The usually run about $15.

We’re on the verge of my MIL moving in with us- not looking forward to it, but it is what it is. She’s going to have to reign in her QVC habit, but I don’t think that will take very long, as we have nowhere to put stuff, and all she’ll have is her room to put things....
