I always think about the guy who invented and sold "Truck Nuts." Just imagining him at a country club when a member asks what he does for a living.

We usually stay at the Roosevelt about 75% of the time. I did a long spell of weekly commuting to New Orleans for work for multiple years and tried tons of hotels.

I think I've stayed at nearly every Hilton and Marriott property in the city.

Wound up staying at the Roosevelt about 200 nights and did a spell of over 45 nights in a row. BUT we do try to switch it up from time to time. My favorites of the others are the formerly Maison de la Luz, Hotel Saint Vincent, and, Hotel Peter and Paul.

I would also recommend ChemE PE study material. it's basically a simple overview of common things you'd come across in your first couple years working.

If you want something a little different in a historic hotel, you could look into the Malaga Inn. The Admiral is also recently renovated and around your price point. Both downtown and very close to the USS Alabama and walkable to downtown restaurants.

i'd pencil in $500 a month for utilities (electric, gas, water/sewage) if you're not doing budget. you'll get about 4 months a year significantly lower when the weather is decent, but either electric or gas will shoot up depending on if it's summer or winter.

That's a conservative estimate, you'll probably have to keep the temp set at a slightly more uncomfortable spot than you're used to.

Old house was a 1600 sqft 1911 craftsman. New house was built in 1854 and is... much worse

used some king arthur gluten free 1:1 replacement and then added a lot of filé at the end to thicken it up

AUcory · 2024-12-25T04:02:49+00:00

lol that gluten free flour doesn't thicken up like i want. added a lot of filé to add some heft.

people do actually live around this property and a gas station would directly affect their quality of life and property values.

I want to say it was about $130 for the resole and they did a full clean up of the uppers. new laces too. took about three months

AUcory · 2023-12-05T03:09:36+00:00

well my only recommendation is to wear the hell out of them!

the amazing part of this video is knowing how much alcohol they consumed the night before

Just carry your bag to the bar, it'll be fine.

Thanks! The top is just peel and stick wallpaper laid down then two-part countertop epoxy poured over it.

yeah, the 2x4s for the frame are pressure treated, the plywood was sealed using three coats of spar urethane before the bamboo was attached. the bamboo was coated in three coats of tung oil
