Twister Sister Summary - a small change

I've made the decision to make the summaries available only from the wordpress site. I will no longer be posting them here. Please note...as it always has been...there will never be a cost involved. If you want to receive an email notice of a new posting just subscribe (found on the main page). When I post it just auto generates an email to those that want to read it. I'll keep content coming (although summer is always slow) just as I always have.

I've been writing the Twister Sister Summary for well over twenty years. That's a lot of writing and I've enjoyed every minute of it. I also appreciate any commentary it generates. There is a spot on each summary where you can leave comments if you want. I always enjoy reading responses and friendly dialogue.

Thanks to all of you who have read and commented on here and on the "other" site where it first started.

Debit card compromised

Anybody else ever have this happen? I got an alert on my phone that a charge against my account for over $4,000 had been denied. So I called my bank to make sure it wasn't some sort of scam to get my account number, and sure enough, they had stopped a payment in that amount. So I had to go through the painful process of getting rid of the old card and getting a new one. You just don't realize how many things you pay for automatically online with your card until you have to go through this.

2026 Football Targets

Sadly, it appears that the marvelous @NATEizKING did was not so prescient as to map out a 2026 version of the long running series. Alas!

It won’t be done properly, I suppose, but here we are. Could I get a pin please, @Connor_Ferguson?

And to start out with, looks like former Cyclone QB (and current Colorado State Professor) Todd Bandhauer has a son. A very large son. Recently offered.

What is your "windows up, volume to 11" absolute trash song?

We all have musical standards. But we also all have songs that completely obliterate those standards the second we're alone. I’m talking about a track that is objectively terrible. Maybe it’s cheesy, meant for toddlers, or the lyrics sound like they were written by an aggressive AI. But when it comes on, you’re hitting the steering wheel like you’re at Wembley Stadium.

What is the song you know is absolute garbage, but you still crank to 11 in private? No judgment here (okay, maybe a little).

Williams & Blum: Why Iowa State football’s plan makes sense

Chris Williams & Brent Blum dive deeper into the creation of Iowa State football’s new program under Jimmy Rogers and the construction of its roster. Williams makes the point that it’s probably best for everybody if national expectations are incredibly low this season. The guys take a handful of mailbag questions about the roster and more, all courtesy of Mechdyne.


Humor`

I've always traversed life with the idea that a little humor is a good thing. It never hurts to put a smile on someone's face. I have a tolerance for off-color jokes (in the right setting) that others may not have, avoiding putting others in an uncomfortable situation. After all, the end goal is to lift somebodies spirit--not to make it worse. Sometimes things seem bad enough that all we have left to do is laugh, and for an instant at least, that puts you in a better place. If you know your audience, you can give them that moment even if they don't presently need it--they may share it with someone that does.

Maybe this subject has been beaten to death on other platforms but i don't frequent them. If you have a joke to share I'd be willing to hear it (keep in mind your audience). I'll lead off with this:

A man and his wife just get seated at a fancy restaurant. Almost immediately a beautiful women appears out of nowhere and kisses the man on the cheek. In awe, the wife asks "what was that all about?" The man responds with "that was my mistress." The wife throws up her arms and declares "well, I'm leaving you--I want a divorce". The man then states "Well, if that's what you want, then Okay, just remember there won't be anymore vacations to the Riviera, no more Paris shopping sprees, no more gifts of diamonds for birthdays, anniversaries etc. About that time their friend John walks in with a blond wrapped around his arm. The wife notices and asks "Who is that with John--it's not his wife" The man replies "that's Johns mistress". The wife then proclaims "she's not as pretty as ours, is she?"

What % of your takehome pay are you spending on living expenses?

And when I say living expenses im talking mortgage, property taxes, and utilities. I just cant bring myself to spend over 30%. I know people who spend 50%. I always leave room for savings or for unexpected expenses. If im bringing home say 7500$ monthly im not spending more than 22-2300 on it. There's no way in hell im going to be housebroke or be a 2 month layoff away from being in deep ****.

wi-fi extender

Does anyone know how these work? I have AT&T internet and it sounds like all I have to do is sign up for a wi-fi extender so the apartment in the garage has better service and no new equipment is needed. Is that true? Or do I need a piece of equipment to extend my wi-fi? I'd rather it be a one-time purchase rather than something I have to keep paying for monthly.
