I remember the Easter Sunday collision (I was a child). The flames warped the bridge. I had nightmares about crossing the bridge only to have it end mid-span.
As to Port of New Orleans getting more traffic, it would likely be minimal. We're not a big containized cargo port. More likely the...
The thing is that you don't have to prove that point. By posting the sign, the property owner is assuming liability for your protection, no matter how competent (or incompetent) you are.
SB 194 would bring about true statewide pre-emption. As to wanting to declare large areas as gun-free zones, why can't they see that ALL of the worst mass shooting events happen in gun-free zones.
:dunno:
One other thing worth mentioning....
When you're dealing with a jihadist mentality, especially when there is some huge attack of some kind, look to Islamic history. They very much like to "reclaim" dates on which things did not go well for them in the past. October 7, the day of the Gaza...
Without trying to stir up the "in" or "at" a parade debate, let me say that there are NO parades on Bourbon Street. There are a few that parade in other parts of the Quarter.
It's possible that the clause referring to an event for which a permit is needed was invoked. If such a permit was...
You don't have to be a dumb coonass to not understand the troubles in the area now called Palestine or Israel. The best geo-political minds of the last century haven't been able to fix it.
The root of the problem is what Real Estate agents always say, "Location, location, location."
That area...
Apparently even the newer domestic vehicles are getting expensive to work on. I saw this recently; it talks about how a taillight problem became a $5600 nightmare.
Late fee in Orleans parish for an inspection was $5 the last time I had to pay it. If there's no fee in the state law, it may be a parish-dependent thing.
REALLY long article, but worth the read, James Bennet, former NY Times editor, goes in-depth on how "illiberal" liberals have ruined the traditional liberal ideals.

One other consideration is protecting your sensitive electronics - computers, smart TV, etc. Look for an"inverter generator" or some such similar label like "constant wave" power. This keeps the 60Hz frequency stable and a pure wave. Without that, you run the risk of damaging the electronic...
I stopped buying ammo from Walmart when the clerk put me on a list and insisted on knowing if the .22 Long Rifle ammo I was buying was for a rifle or a handgun. She wouldn't believe me when I told her it could be for either. So, I pointed to the word "rifle" on the box, and she wrote that down.
You could just play along. Next time someone gives you trouble, give them your best Clint Eastwood squinty eyed stare and say, "I'm a straight, white male. Do you really want to make me angry?"
Crossing from the Westbank at that time puts you in a crunch of traffic from Downtown. There is an up ramp that comes in along the side of the bus/train station that has only a tenth of a mile to merge into traffic, while at the same time there is an exit at the end of that same tenth of a mile...
To the Vets on the board:
Please make sure that someone - a relative, a close friend - either has a copy of, or knows the location of, your service records, just in case you pass away.
Some of you may remember that I posted about my brother's suicide 3 years ago. We searched for, but could...
