    Found this just recently, not a great pic at all. Bridge I did in 1992 that's across Bayou Lafourche near Thibadoux. It's on a turntable about 1/3 of the way across. It pivots to let shrimp boats and such come up before a Hurricane. Still there as far as I know. At the time the alloy used was...

    Dating

    I'm the last person to take any relationship advice from. Lived with the same woman for a couple of decades before we were married. Personally I think you have put 1,000 times more thought into it than it deserves unless she's an heir to a very large company. thousands of acres of land, or both.

    Dodge had a few for a short time. The same ones that automattically buckled the belt when you entered. You could get over 55 for a limited amount of time to pass. It didn't last long. Still remember the commericals and how "safe" they were. Friend of the family had one and everyone talked shit...

    And 1/4 of your friends in the interview will say "nah he couldn't have done something like that" 3/4 will say "I knew something wasn't right with that boy all along".

    College Football 2022-23 Season.

    Used to have the best players boosters could buy, okay well #2 behind SMU. Now they all get paid. Oddly enough the press was going on then about how SMU and TCU needed to pay players to keep up with powerhouse UT. They came real close to getting the death penalty in the 80s as well.

    Never owned any collectables. Other than baseball cards when I was young. We really didn't even think about getting rich. You could watch them play on TV and look up their stats on the card since it was way before the internet.

    Dumb me. Can't even see my card when it's in the case. I have a glass side but it's facing the wall. Have a MSI maybe that's why I keep it where I can't see it.

    My sister gave me a couple of pics she had of new cars I had bought back 30+ years ago. I never took any pictures. I know how much I paid for each and used my bonus at the time and paid cash for each. Ran the numbers through an inflation calculator. That was depressing. They weren't super fancy...

    If people didn't buy that stuff and put up with it nobody would make it. The reason it gets used heavily is because it's profitable to do so. Imagine that. People have no self control for them or their kids, news at 11.

    Not sure I can agree with the wind chill they are reporting. It's 19F here now and wind chill of -4. Sun is shining, wind wasn't that bad. I went out and lit a fire in the fire pit and smoked a cigar. I've been in temps -4 or so and this did not feel like -4.

    Texas has 77k customers without power on the outtage map. County I lived at in TX list 4 customers tracked, 0 without power. I guess that's all that get there's from the TX grid cause mine came in from LA GA most in the country, 100k. Of course no idea what normal numbers are.
