Not in my current area but the murder that will always stand out the most for me is the Kipp Gullett murder in Baton Rouge in 92. I lived in the apartments at the end of S Kenilworth, my neighbor found Kipp's body in the field where he was executed there at Burbank. That murder will always haunt me just because it was right there and I was only a year or two older than Kipp, just can't imagine those final hours for him.
I sat in on an annual LSU Alumni Conference many years ago and someone made a comment about being a "Diploma carrying Alumnus" and Dr. Charlie Roberts quickly corrected them and shared that LSU considers you an Alumni on day one and the common incorrect misunderstanding is a battle they had been fighting for years and knew it would be fought for years to come, here we are almost 30 years later and seems nothing has changed.

I copied the following from the LSU ONLINE site today.

You Are an LSU Alumni Starting on Day 1
Forever LSU. You’ve heard the song after football games, you understand the concept. But what does it truly mean?

As an LSU Alumni, a status we welcome you to join on day 1 of your classes with LSU Online, you join the more than 225,000 individuals who call LSU home.

Morning to all :cheers:
I was home sick from school that day. My step dad worked at Stennis Space Center so watching the launch was always a given in our house. Never forget laying on the couch and thinking - "did I really just see that?", then there was the silence for what seemed like forever.

5 Chicken wings from the deli in our seediest grocery store in town, no sides.

19 here - went to KFC for a chicken pot pie, nothing screams I'm getting old louder than my lunch selection.

Good Morning O-T
No clue, that was over 20 years ago, hell just remembering what I had today can be a challenge.

Cheeseburger and fries from the local grocery store (Food City) deli.

Morning all - happy Friday. :cheers:
Went to a new place that just opened in town, City BBQ (a chain), it was very underwhelming.

The most uncomfortable and overpriced hat I own.


I have several and they fit my fat head great, one of the more comfortable hats I have.

Overpriced - yes, I had a gift cert that needed to be used. $120 for two hats is insane.

Previous BB hats I've purchased have all been sale items at local golf courses (and still overpriced).
I just ordered two LSU hats from Branded Bills and flat bill was an option on both but that was a big hell no for me, I'm a man, I'm FIFTY THREE! (not tree fiddy)
