    I've driven across the country a few times. You can draw lines of increasingly pronounced accents. Those lines converge on Gatlinburg, or a point just a few miles east of there.

    One of the benefits of a prolonged winter is that crawfish season gets stretched.

    Re: Post Race!

    There's a restaurant near here...or there was, which only opened for a day or two each year. What it served was a crayfish dinner. I never went there, because I'm pretty sure they were getting crayfish from the Snake River, as they were along a stretch of that river, and there wasn't an obvious alternative place they could have come from. They were in a desert, so bodies of water were not exactly common....and cows ARE common. I wasn't interested in eating anything that came out of that stretch of that river.

    Re: Post Race!

    I will say that I got very spoiled living in the Lake Charles area because we could buy pond crawfish from central Louisiana (Opelousas, Mamou, etc.). But now that I'm living in the Thibodaux area, we basically only get spillway crawfish.

    The crawfish raised in ponds (which were actually rice fields earlier in the year) are sooooooo much cleaner than from the spillways.

    You pretend like we have cakes made in a pan for breakfast or something.

    I am going to make the assertion that BASIC is better than VB6. From what I have read on the various threads in this forum, VB6 is better than VB.NET. Ergo, BASIC is better than VB.NET.

    Re: Post Race!

    I'm on vacation staying at a house beside a field with a flock of goats. They're quite entertaining. Last evening, as we were sitting on the patio, a gal walking by called over to say there was a small goat following her. I went out and retrieved the goat and returned it to the pasture from whence it escaped.

    I'm not kidding around, either.
