  1. My son is at FSU and he was texting with us while it was happening from the Union. It was all surreal. His cousin (there for a campus visit) was upstairs and he and his aunt and uncle were downstairs. I guy came running down the stairs, fell and dropped all his stuff then got up and kept running leaving all his stuff. Then they could hear a stampede upstairs, then gunshots, so his uncle ran up for his daughter and my son followed to help. They got word the cousin was safe so they went back downstairs and tried to get to a safe place. Two girls noticed the cousin outside clearly not a student (she’s a jr in HS) and took her and her friend to safety. Pretty amazing in the midst of chaos someone had the sense to notice they needed help and got them to safety. So wild.
  2. I wanted to respond with “thoughts and prayers” but I’m a very small blue dot in a sea of red and we just need to keep our head down to get by for 3 more months…
  3. I’m in deep red East Texas. As expected, the Leopards are gonna feast out here. Recent post on FB:
  4. Think it was 38. May have been less. Kids move around, graduate early, or not at all. His class ended up being quite small. My daughter’s is maybe 60. Son ended up getting the Presidential Scholarship at FSU, which includes full scholarship. 48 applicants chosen
  5. Pretty excited and proud, our daughter was admitted with her first choice major. I had heard a lot were deferred but this am I saw it was some like 95% deferrals. Crazy! She was auto admit - valedictorian, School of Natural Sciences. 2 years ago my son was deferred until Feb and got in first choice major engineering. He was not auto admit (although #3 in class)
  6. Looking for a Cancun AI for a family of 4 (18 and 20 year old kids) that has a good club nightlife scene and good beach. The boy has found the club scene at school and I’d like a fun club type scene onsite (while we sleep). The RIU properties seem to have this. Willing to spend for something good. Maybe Ibiza?
  7. What are you asking for the 2 tickets? I have family in NO, my niece and brother-in-law would love to go. You can DM me if you’d like.
  8. First gumbo of the season…and got our tree switched over at the start of the year. We were gifted a king cake that lasted a day. Not bad, we normally get a Randazzo’s cake mailed to us.
  9. Parking is easy at the gate. $15 I think
  10. There’s always been brokers but I used to be able to get tickets via Craigslist. I used to do well flipping OU tickets and going for free. Now there are no tickets from individuals on CL. Perhaps this is because everything has gone digital and there’s so much fraud potential, the safety of the online marketplace that guarantees tickets are necessary. It completely sucks because if you buy a ticket and have to turn and unload it for some reason you have to eat a ton on the resale. Not to mention there is no place to go anymore. I was just curious if I’m missing where tickets are bought and sold sans brokers because CL is no longer the place.
  11. It appears stub Hub, seat geek, etc is the only real secondary market for tickets. I used to have great luck on Craigslist but there is nothing out there now. Am I missing a place to find tickets cutting out the insane markup? I guess the SH/SG market gives the buyer confidence and that’s where all the traffic is now.
  12. Wowzer, looks amazing. [emoji7]
  13. Sharing a few pics from this summer. Hoping to rent a sailboat again next summer to sail the Virgin Islands.
  14. My neighbor was devastated and was not sleeping well. I told her we’d get this done but it may take some time. As an aside the first buyer backed out after dragging his feet for a long time and this 2nd buyer has been slow rolling. My neighbor thought this would have been complete months ago. I was going to start the process finding a lawyer when I learned the title company agreed to wave the issue with the conveyance if my neighbor can show she’s paid taxes since 2001 when she bought it and get an updated survey. Let’s go! We’re not done yet but in an instant it could all work out. Thanks for the help!
