Right. But think of the time period. When I was a freshman at LSU in 1987, my friends older brother was a fifth-year senior about to start a job in a good career paying 36k per yr, and that was considered a lot of money. 50k per yr jobs were borderline stratospheric, and mostly unheard of.
After 2 yrs into his computer science degree, my son came home one day and said he wanted a career in cybersecurity. Started talking to the Navy recruiter. ASVAB score in mid/upper 90s. Recruiter offered nuke with a 30k signing bonus today and after 6 yrs a 100k bonus if he would re-enlist. Son said thanks, but no thanks. Went cyber/crypto, spent 6 yrs at the NSA, now out and enjoying a very high paying job with a major gov contractor with his renewed security clearances. But those were the nuke $ offerings 6 yrs ago.
all racial wounds healed in that little cafe

I've been a few times, sometimes after a workout. The sushi is good, but you are not in a fine dining type of restaurant. No alcohol at all. Just walk-thru buffet style sushi, serve yourself, and pay by weight at the end.

Louisiana Cardiology Associates. LCA.

Stud group of excellent cardiologists. Surprised Deumite isn't retired by now. Must be close to it. He was a fairly new doc when I met him in 1992 when I was an LSU senior. He's probably early to mid 60s now. Harris Lappin, MD was one of the principal founders/owners, and he passed away many years ago. Don't know the status of the other "old guys", respectfully speaking: Quaid, Leukhart, Wall, Moonan. Glad to know he's well thought of.
I ain’t even got a garage. You can call home and ask my wife!

heard it’s possible to have shingles twice?

My wife got shingles twice. First time was about 15 yrs ago down her arm along the C5-6 dermatome (nerve path). Second time was this year in her eye. Very painful. Luckily, she made a full recovery with no residual visual loss. She is now vaccinated.

ETA: I plan to get the 2 vaccine shots this year.

That’s it. I’m flipping over to Paw Patrol re-runs.
Yes he is, but lives in a nursing home. Had some serious health setbacks, but he is stable, last I heard.

Before St Michael’s, he was here at St Edmund’s. He married us and baptized our children. I miss that man.

that almost makes you a "floaton", with the -on being expressed the French way.

Per Fr. Gary Schexnayder, that means you float around to different churches :lol:

We do this too :cheers:

I probably spent 400k putting my kids through Catholic school.

Put 3 kids through Fatima and STM. K-12, so 13 yrs each.
I tabulated a little over 250k spent. Well worth it, in my opinion.
My dad wanted to know why my house wasn't paid off yet. He understood when I showed him those numbers :lol:

Viva La waffle was such a terrible idea

But at every food truck roundup, they had the longest line of people by far. Agree that the brick and mortar restaurant was a flop.
