  1. The New Orleans thread was on the 4th page and no one has posted on here since 12-19-22. Given that Mardi Gras just happened, that's pretty wild. 
    I am going to NOLA for the first time in almost 2 years later this month for a long weekend. Does anyone have a view on any new places that rival places like Peche, LPG, Clancy's, Brennan's, Commander's? 
    We haven't been to places mentioned on here that I'm trying to rank in terms of interest such as Compare Lapin, Herbsaint, Gris Gris, and GW Fins. 
    Any help or thoughts are appreciated.
    I'm in New Orleans a couple times each month. I've recently had meals at LPG, Compare Lapin, GW Fins x2, and R'evolution.

    I'd rank them like this
    1a GW Fins (been twice over the last two months)
    1b Compare Lapin
    1c LPG
    2 R'evolution

    All are great choices. If you are looking to grab a very good shrimp Po boy check out Zara's lil Giant supermarket.

  2. You need to quit watching msnbc. Because biden is an idiot, missiles are flying over Japan all the time. N Korea is far more dangerous today because of your idiot in the WH. And how laughable that you're whining about a couple of letters. Maybe you need to get your head out because your biden has documents scattered all over the place to the point where some in his party want him gone.
    But look at the bright side, future generations won't have to go to any archives to see what a village idiot fool biden is. All they will have to do is wake up every morning and see that that bastard turned our county into a third world country. But oooj, letters.
      
    It's never a good look to let people know how stupid you truly are.
  3. Closing out January down 13 lbs (225 down to 212 this morning). Walk 4.5 miles either early morning or late evening six days/week plus extra steps during the day, totaling around 12,600 steps. Last two weeks trying to also incorporate some body weight exercises twice a week, probably need to be doing more with strength training.

    Cut out alcohol during the week and I've been trying to track calories with a goal of keeping calories under 2280/day.

  4. They also want to be lied to. I think deep down some of them know it’s bullshit, but they get psychological satisfaction from the rage. MIL is for sure like this. Just an angry old white woman. 
    Number one reason why we are fucked as a country. Right wing media, right wing politicians have learned that sowing the seeds of hate leads to enormous wealth. Hate and rage is an endorphin for their base and I honestly don't see a way to combat it.

  5. While I'm at it, there's a microbrand based in Austin, Trafford Watch Co. They just had their Kickstarter for their new Crossroads. The Kickstarter is over and the watches are in production. I received a pre-production model, the Bluebonnet.

    If you like squarish watches, this is a really great looking watch. The curved crystal is very cool and creates some really interesting effects with the light reflection. And you get to support an Austin-based brand. 20221221_214403.thumb.jpg.a869a6e6f7a47da63a7b625854110b9c.jpg20221219_122659.thumb.jpg.b4fa0a51847e49b07fb459af10c31347.jpg2022_1211_19064400.thumb.jpg.5c7578d97cdd7aab66797478c8a6ced6.jpg


    Placed an order today for a Bluebonnet.
