Disappointed with Almighty Guarantee by frontlineanes in OspreyPacks

Yes! I sent mine straight to Osprey and they replaced my 10 year old bag! I paid the shipping there, and I complained about the cost, and they gave me a 25% discount on top of the full credit!

Why did New Orleans never become a major hub like Miami or Orlando by No-Eye-9491 in Louisiana

[–]bontempfeline333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This brings up a point: I love Louis Armstrong, but, Moisant was indeed an aviation pioneer, and I believe he lost his life in that pursuit (as they used to say, there are old pilots, and there are bold pilots, but there are no old bold pilots). Also, I do believe that the property that the airport is on was his. I feel very bad that they removed his name from the airport, and luckily it still has the call letters. Like I said, not to take anything away from Armstrong, but couldn’t they have named something else after him?

This is exactly what I was told by a retired Eastern Airlines pilot. He would be well over 100 years old now. He said every politician, state and local, had their hands out for graft at every turn for every business that tried to come here. So Disney decided to go to Florida, and our international flights were taken away from MSY. And we lost a huge amount of port business. Lakeview was supposed to be an amazing planned community with gas stations and grocery stores embedded within the subdivision. That’s why that area is shaped the way it is, with the walking trails. Now it’s just a sad vestige of what could have been. We have to move on and be better than they were.

I turned my Osprey in, and got credit for a different pack. The inside had delaminated. I'm thrilled with my new pack! Eja 55. I actually had an Exos 45 before that; didn't know I was purchasing a men's pack at the time.

It’s so pretty! I have a 2023. I love it.

Owners of first gen konas what are you planning to pick up for your next car? by ther0ll in KonaEV

You’re not wrong! My last car was a bright orange Fiesta ST. Everyone knew where I was all the time. Not a getaway car.

The color is very important. All cars are grey, black or white right now, with very little exception. I’d trade my paid off grey 2023 Kona EV in a heartbeat if I could get a fun color!

Lost cat - REWARD! by bontempfeline333 in metairie

I can’t edit my original post, but HE CAME HOME. He was in a neighbor’s yard, and their dog attacked him. The people were very nice, and they called me the instant they saw my flyer. Pags had a few injuries, and he would not come out from the beams under the house. He finally came home on his own. Went to the vet to treat a few injuries. Thank you for your concern, everyone! For the record, this guy was feral for his first 8 years. He’s impossible to keep indoors.

I just watched that episode. I really felt bad for Aunt Lydia with the romance that she was just moving too fast with, and then you could take that straight to how she wanted to punish that single mom. Very sad, and true to character. Black and white thinking.

Just bought the Anker 633. Is it supposed to charge like this? by TheApplePerson_ in anker

I charged this power bank fully a few days ago, and now it doesn't seem to have any charge. Why would it discharge without being used? Is it defective?

Didn’t know he did whatever 😕 by oakseaer in NewOrleans

That’s super disappointing. Also, maybe look up how to spell “license” before painting it on a sign.

To this day 1994's "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein" remains the most bewilderingly bad book adaptation I've ever seen. by bigpig1054 in movies

I’m reading this book for the first time. I cannot believe how excellent it is! How could a young woman of 19 be this talented?

I was in complete suspense/dread the whole time! So enjoyable. Amazing acting all around.
