Would you be more likely to go to a restaurant that added a little over 20% to all of their item prices when compared to comparable restaurants and then did not give you an option to tip?

You could leave additional cash or could request to leave an additional tip on a credit card receipt, but the default would be that there is no option for leaving a tip and no expectation to do so.

So as a couple of examples:
A normally $9.99 menu item would be changed to $12.25
A normally $26 menu item would be changed to $32
A total of $120 in items ordered would change to around $146.50

Rest easy Hot Lips.

As the cartoon bracket is finishing we want to get a jump start on next bracket which is Villains.

Below is a list committee people have put together as usual I will pitch for new blood to join the team. Also as a committee we have been looking at format of what should or shouldn't be in so list of nominee's isn't incredibly large.

@2speedy1 had some great insights that would of helped the cartoon bracket but sadly it got after cartoon bracket was announced.

We are looking to keep the superhero/comic book characters to a minimum, and possibly eliminate monsters and robot villains as well as horror to make things more manageable.

@Angie posting the school's out thread got me thinking about this. Remember when ISU had these huge poster sales on campus at the MU? I loved going to those.

So, what's a poster you've up on your wall at any time of your life? Musician, athlete, actor, destination?

I'll kick this off with one I had as a kid:

Jeff Woody and Grant Mahoney welcome Ari Temkin from Big 12 Radio on TuneIn to discuss the latest on the Big 12 from conference meetings, storylines heading into next season, and all the CFP madness. Presented by Kelderman Manufacturing.

It’s the last day of school in a lot of places around Iowa. That includes Ames.

Do you have any celebrations that you did annually as a child to celebrate the last day of school? Any time-honored shenanigans? Any good stories?

Did you live in a location where you got to see your friends during the summer, or were you maybe out in the middle of the country and didn’t get to see anybody until the first day of school the next year?

Horror movie fans. Oof.

Not sure who’s seen the trailer for this new horror movie. I don’t take horror movies lightly. I love a few. Hate a lot more. But I love going to them.

This is one of the most ****** up visceral grotesque disturbing yet at the same time incredibly sad and visually stunning horror movies I can recall.

Oscar nominee Sally Hawkins (Shape of Water) is absolutely brilliant in this role and while she won’t be nominated for awards because it’s a horror movie she should be. She’s better than Toni Collette in Hereditary in my opinion.

Won’t be for everyone. I don’t do body horror to well and this is next level. No joke I spent probably 15 honest minutes not able to look at the screen.

But for general horror fans this is a must. It’s just a really truly well done movie that happens to be horror amped up. This will stick with me awhile.

Apologies to OTN contributors for the delay this week. The holiday, combined with my life & work flow, we decided to push it back a couple of days.

This week, we are looking for songs with the following in title or lyrics: catch, caught, grab, seize, clench, grip, hook, capture.

Inspiration for the topic: Last Friday, I was in St. Louis for Battlehawks game and in pregame I caught a pass from our very own former ISU QB Seneca Wallace.

"On That Note” is presented weekly by @MeanDean, @cyclones500 and myself.

Last Week: On That Note: We Can Be Together
