re: What’s the coolest thing you’ve found?
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 3/7/25 at 3:48 pm
My aunt/uncle own an old home built in late 1800s near Baton Rouge. As a kid, we kept finding tons of old colorful glass shards in the ground after my uncle would run his tractor. Turns out, a doctor in early 1900s owned the house and we started digging up his old trash pile including tons and tons of antique medicine bottles, pottery, two man saws, horse plows, etc. This excited every fiber of my being as kid who loved archeology and anthropology.

My gut tells me it’s got a ways to go.

This would be my question.

Good thought, thanks!

So you’d break up the flagstone any everything?
DIY Work - Replacing Rotted 6x6 Sunken Pergola Post
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 3/6/25 at 1:54 pm
How would you approach this? Do you put up some temp support and simply fill in hole with concrete before replacing post to sit on top of a new metal footer?
You can see my situation at link below but previous homeowner had a pergola built roughly 20 years ago and it looks to go through the flagstone patio. Wicks up water when the ground is wet, you can see the rot I uncovered that they put some wood filler in and painted over before selling to me.

re: Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak says Elon Musk has lost his way

He is taking a bankruptcy approach which isn’t far from reality, same as a turnaround situation. You try to do this in a slow and micromanaged way, this will never get done.
re: Louisiana Tropical Fruit Gardening - Experiences and Updates

This thread has my mouth watering with some of these fruit descriptions! I’ll be following this one for sure, so cool to see. I have been saying I was going to start a key lime tree any year now.
re: Anyone buy from Fabletics?
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 2/27/25 at 7:31 pm
That company absolutely spams me. For that reason alone, I won’t buy from then. Isn’t Kevin Hart an owner of the company?

I get that in million dollar homes but it is nice to have that storage up there if you need it.
re: Looking for tips from the older crowd on budgeting. Am I doing bad at this point in life?
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 2/26/25 at 7:19 am
What vehicles do you drive? That car insurance seems steep. In Texas, I know a lot of folks that lowered their premiums by going to Progressive.

I guess if they get damaged, you can’t really repair like you can a standard garage? Not sure but something to think about.
re: Do you throw fruit peels out of your vehicle window?
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 2/22/25 at 6:14 am
The question is would you be annoyed if everyone did this? You got a guy on here saying he throws a banana peel in a ditch every single day. Even if they broke down eventually, imagine if there were hundreds of banana peels or apple cores on the ground. Pretty trashy if you ask me…literally.
re: What turf grass should I go with?
Posted by CalcuttaTigah on 2/21/25 at 6:02 pm
Looks nice. What do you do in that building back there? Is that an office or just storage?

Retire and tell them you’re open to consulting. Is that an option?

In case anyone is having the same question I had, he was the antagonist in The Patriot.

I am somewhat long on Microsoft. Most AI productivity gains in the workplace will likely come through them. Also, data storage needs and cloud offerings will only grow. Just my .02.

Crazy, I just so happened to watch the NOLA No Reservations episode an hour ago and he made an appearance talking about restaurants recovering, sat down at Antoine’s with Bourdain.
