re: The size difference in the Apollo and Artemis II capsules is surprising
Posted by DoctorTechnical on 4/13/26 at 5:13 pm to Loup
Rest area near Stennis (MS-607 and I-10) had a full scale training version of the Lunar Lander, including concrete footprints at the base from astronaut Fred Haise -- Mississippi boy who was the pilot on Apollo 13. Yeah that mission, which caused Haise to never set foot on the moon. Thus the reverence from this Mississippi boy for those footprints.
Looks like Haise is still with us. New summer bucket list is to read his book and travel to coastal MS to pay my respects.

Serious question: I don't want to give up my old-school gas cans. At this May 9 event, will they just dump out my old gas in those cans and hand them back to me? The City-Parish website was not clear, imagine that.

They have one in Baton Rouge.
Sometime I just want a hamburger. Choices #1 and #2 have proven to be borderline inedible. My fond memories of #3 come from 50+ years of living in BTR. If I trek down there nowadays, how bad is modern FT going to be?

Now that I'm back home in Baton Rouge, let me return the favor: once you hit I-12 in Slidell, have Waze and GMaps on max-blast. Especially if the "New Bridge" or I-10 over the Atchafalaya is farked-up, take US190 over the Basin. Just really watch yo' speed in those small towns. Stop at Billy's in K. Springs, get a bag of boudin balls and enjoy the ride.
Welcome to South Louisiana.

Wild-arse guess that you are trying to pick up WBRZ and WAFB. WBRZ broadcasts from real channel 13; WAFB from real channel 9.
Meaning... that you need an antenna with the ability to pick up some hi-band VHF, especially for WAFB. Meaning... for reliable reception, you'll need something like this up in your attic.

Retired back to Baton Rouge after living in BHM for a decade... good God do I miss that town and its food and musical scene.
Great suggestions in this thread. Enjoy them all for me, will ya.
And if you wander into the heart of the SEC at Salem's Diner in downtown Homewood, enjoy the history and tell Wayne that "LSU" says hello. He'll know.

re: Rumor has it that Publix grocery is coming to the Harveston development
Posted by DoctorTechnical on 2/15/26 at 5:08 pm to King of New Orleans
Publix comes in a variety of sizes, including ones down to 20,000 to 25,000 sq. ft. The downtown Birmingham store is one of those smaller stores, and it just ain't the same as the regular Publix stores.

After Katrina, I moved into the Jackson neighborhood where Brad lived.
So yes, I can say that for a short while I lived... wait for it...
