    Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

    35ish, give or take a couple of years. Helps if they have a boy or two of their own by then.

    Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

    I've fed safflower for years upon years, it's the only seed I feed. Absolutely no problems, the undesirable birds don't like it, even the squirrels don't seem interested since they don't feed on what gets spilled, although maybe that's because they get ample food from our oak trees and by...

    Random Thoughts 18: The Year of Fire

    We've had one for almost 4 years and it's been great, would buy another. VERY quiet, and does what it's supposed to do very well. We pre-wash pretty well, OTOH dishes set for several days until there's a full load, so there's potential for dried residue.

    Meth use can cause the user to lose sensation of body temperature. Even in severe cold they may remove most clothes, and freeze to death if not found. On a summer day in the 90's, they may be wrapped up in a snorkel parka.

    Friday OT Tell us about the 1st time

    There were some friendly girls in the neighborhood who provided more than the movies. And wasn't far to the South Dakota border where legal age in small town bars was quite low if you were with someone they knew, legal or not.

    Friday OT #2 - But Why?

    English measurements instead of metric. Base 10 everything is way simpler than 32 and 212 degrees for water freezing boiling, 16 oz is a quart, 5280 feet is a mile (allegedly, almost no real life mile is) etc etc etc

    ISU Gambling Megathread

    What I was trying to point out, is that to collect damages you have to show that damages were suffered. His athletic career doesn't suggest that loss of future wages etal would be a viable basis. Loss of scholarship, that very possibly would but he's still on the roster, hence presumably on...

    ISU Gambling Megathread

    I'm not into internet debates, more into being educated or vise versa, probably won't post further on this topic. Anyone who is involved in legal processes should know that the first thing an attorney will look for is whether proper procedures were followed. Proper notice, timely filing, cite...

    ISU Gambling Megathread

    Can someone explain what Hanika can possibly win out of the attorney's actions, other than a big bill from the attorney? Two years of ST only, returning 2 kicks and making one tackle. Last when all of the other TEs were injured, he caught 17 passes for 244 yards in 12 games. Didn't appear to...
