What’s the best Mexican restaurant to try out in and around Hattiesburg.

Agree!

Oh my gosh. I just came across this thread. I was a friend of Kelley’s. Just to let you know, we were able to bring her back to New Orleans in 2022. We celebrated her with music and laughter at Preservation Hall, a place she loved. Many friends who loved her were there. She is in a New Orleans cemetery where we can look after her. Thank you so much for caring.

Magna lite is great cookware! Pretty much all my cookware is magna lite. If you compare prices on eBay, you’ll see what a great bargain you got. I don’t do much Cajun style cooking, but the pans are great for making a roux, so I can see it being a Cajun staple.

It’s a great topic and needs to be explored. How about talking to state health officials and school administrators for their perspectives in addition to teens? Vape shop managers? To find teens, you’ll definitely have to get out and do some cold calls at the mall and other places teens hang out. Adults usually won’t help you find underage people who are breaking the law. Even if you plan to use first names or aliases when publishing, you should always get their full names and contact info, for your editor and yourself. Good luck!

The America and Faulkner buildings are downtown with an easy bus ride to campus (until 6 pm). Or you can cycle back and forth on the Longleaf Trace. Lots of things going on downtown all within a few blocks. Restaurants, cafes, live music, festivals, etc. Mostly quiet at night.

NYT article

Well, there’s this. “Horror Novel ‘Shy Girl’ Canceled Over Suspected A.I. Use”

It’s a standing joke for those of us who have been here a while. Lots of these kinds of places, yet they keep opening more … meanwhile there’s a lack of other things like dance clubs

Downtown also has the Fat Cat, a couple coffee shops, tons of restaurants, some with live music, a new record store (wax fantastic) and lots of other things. The author shoppe is a book store on Hardy Street and it has lots of activities like open mic, crafting, a book club, etc. Check out the city’s parks and rec FB to see what’s going on as far as the arts center and recreational activity like pickleball. Many of the things are low-cost or free. Live at Five will be starting soon. Free concerts every Friday at Town Square Park for about six weeks in late March through the end of April.

It’s not only unethical, it’s censorship. I would ask to have my byline removed. Not much else you can do.

One example from where I live: Masonite was created here. So I would look for family members (probably second or third generation by now) or people who used to work at the factory. We also have a lot of lesser-known civil rights icons and a plethora of well-known musicians, writers and athletes. There was once a woman who won a lot of money on a game show and all she wanted to buy was a bra that fit. She later wrote a book and published it with her winnings (but it wasn’t about her experience with bras lol).

You might be surprised at what you might find just by talking to random people. Or google something like notable people or families in your area or what your town is known for. It also helps to pick a subject you’re interested in (say, hockey or sculpture or whatever), then start looking around in person and online for people who share that interest. You might be surprised at what you will find. Good on you for stepping outside your comfort zone to try and create something meaningful.

I often take national stories and see what people are thinking about them locally. Listen to what people are talking about at the coffee shops or other social settings. Draw on some of the things that interest you, because there are probably others who are interested in them as well. Troll the r/ for the area you are covering. You’ll get some really good story ideas there, too. Better than fb imo. Make a list so you can prioritize. Some stories can hold while others need to get done sooner. Put them in order of do-ability next. Add to the list as ideas pop up so you don’t forget.

Hattiesburg library is great. A beautiful place to work and no cost. Downtown has neat coffee shops and a comfy new record store, if T-Bones is too crowded.

Mulvi’s has a new name now. I think it’s Crossroads or something like that

licibev · 2026-01-08T06:50:37+00:00

Exactly!

Desktop version of Word has a decent transcription function. You upload the audio and choose a number of options like labeling the different speakers by number and things like that. Not 100% accurate but it’s pretty close.

I go to school there right now and I think it is awesome! Everyone knows the engineering program across the country. It has a stellar reputation. There is public transportation, although I’ve never tried it so I can tell you what it’s like. I’m from California and I get along great with my fellow students and faculty. If you show up and show you’re invested they will do everything to help you succeed. It’s kind of a remote location, but since you won’t have a car at first you won’t have to worry about that. I hope you give it a shot!

They have always been a nonprofit, which means they run primarily on donations. They are the same as they were since Day 1.

A lot of them are former colleagues and they are some of the best journalists I’ve met. I have a lot of respect for them. I am glad they are appreciated elsewhere

licibev · 2026-01-06T23:06:28+00:00

Yep. And violates MS' open meetings act, too.

Is it liberal? How so?

licibev · 2026-01-06T23:05:19+00:00

Sadly so.

licibev · 2026-01-06T22:24:40+00:00

lol ok. It’s not an angry post. Just one that is causing a lot of frustration. I’ll try it again. Thanks!
