Thinking about moving out of Iowa
I have lived in Oregon since 1997. One of the most beautiful states, and so much to see and do outdoors. I dont think there is a comparison at all to any state in the midwest, although I miss the people of Iowa. Most people do not realize that most of Oregon is not rain forest, but high... -
Song at the end?
1st world problems in this thread. My $.02 Sounded good on tv, and personally much better than Sweet Caroline. Glad the court storm didnt happen. Act like we have been here. Wasnt an upset, just a great win against a top quality Big 12 opponent. Loved the ***** chants when the Houston...- 0u812

*** Official Colorado vs #8 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***
Great game in all aspects. Seems like the KU and Cincinnati game was a good reset, and necessary. Every player on the court was complimentary last night. A true team. Love Brando announcing, both football and basketball. He is my 2nd favorite announcer for basketball, behind Fran F...- 0u812

Have you seen the Baylor cheer squad? That has to be a help.....! -
Dom Nelson - The Defibrillator
Seems like an off speed pitch compared to the other guards. I think Fran F called him that in one of the early season games. It seems like its good for the team offensively, but yes, he is more of a turnstile defensively. He is important to the team, 100%. Glad he is on the good guys this year.- 0u812

Vehicle Maintenance - Make it Run Forever
I either work on my own rigs or have close friends that can help. A buddy with a lift is pretty valuable. I prefer old GM Trucks, GMT 800 Silverados, Tahoes, etc. Have a couple of Suburbans, Silverados, and with the exception of the 4l60e transmission, these are rock solid old trucks. The... -
Does 3 paychecks a month make a difference?
Of course it doesn't make any difference. If it makes a difference at your house, you are living beyond your means. -
Bands and their evolution
I completely agree. He is a good singer, but kind of put in a bad deal. I am not a huge Cherone fan, but he is a better singer than he got credit for on VHIII. The guitar work on VHIII is quite good, but I am a lifelong EVH fan. EVH died on this day, 5 years ago. RIP EVH -

Sammy is a better singer on his worst day than Vince on his best. Or DLR for that matter. -
DIY Auto Detailing Thread
you will get swirl fast from automatic car washes that touch the paint. No way around that, and yes, they are definitely bad for the paint. Maybe try a hand wash once a week in your driveway/yard. Water the grass, kids get to play etc. Do a full detail or have it done, and the hand wash... -

The Week the Music Died... Brian Wilson gone at 82
Sad to hear. He was a musical genius, although the Beach Boys did get their start ripping off Chuck Berry. That said, Pet Sounds was a masterpiece of sound and recording. RIP Brian Wilson. -

Friday OT - School’s Out Forever!
We did the exact same, with water ballons and whatever "weapons" we could carry. I would also moon the bus just after I got dropped off at home as they drove off.
