[quote]Something about this just seems a bit cruel[/quote]
I think it happens a lot for couples with a bit of an age difference. My wife and I aren't that far apart in age (little over 4 yrs), but she'd have to get on my insurance if she wants to retire early. ...

I was at LSU when Canes and Baileys first opened. I had pretty regular interactions with Todd Graves and the dude who started Baileys. They used to run coupons in our newspaper.

re: Boiled Crabs near Baton Rouge?
Posted by fallguy_1978 on 5/11/24 at 11:08 am
There is a drive through place on Sherwood that does crawfish, shrimp and crabs. Full disclosure, I've never had the crabs but their crawfish and shrimp are pretty damn good.
It's called Cravin' Crawfish. Basically they converted an old gas station car wash into a drive through seafood place. It...

I doubt much will happen. Pay a fine, maybe go to a "substance abuse awareness" class downtown.

re: Can Louisiana ever be fixed?
Posted by fallguy_1978 on 5/10/24 at 1:47 pm
Property taxes mean that you never own your home. If you think you do, try not paying them.
Some bureaucrat gets to decide the value of your home, which changes every year, and you have to dispute it if you disagree. It's hard to raise income taxes or sales taxes. If you want to raise more money ...
re: Can Louisiana ever be fixed?
Posted by fallguy_1978 on 5/10/24 at 1:39 pm
They'll just jack your property taxes way up to make up the difference. In many ways, I think property taxes are worse. I'd rather just have a big arse sales tax to pay for everything and let everyone enjoy in the fun. ...

A lot of Southern states are dragged down by their lowest quality citizens, but if you are in the top 20% in one of those states, you likely have a nice life and a much more affordable COL in most cases. I'd rather live in certain parts of Arkansas (#47) than anywhere in Minnesota (#4). ...
