    Southwest Airlines coming to DM

    I think it was 4 when I booked a flight last September to Nashville from Des Moines. Sun, Mon, Thur, and Fri.

    Thinking about moving out of Iowa

    We have family in the Santa Rosa area. Really like that area. Peak summer is about like central Iowa with a little less humidity, but it hits more in Aug/Sept vs Jul/Aug.

    Southwest Airlines coming to DM

    Already had non-stop via Allegiant to Nashville.. I guess more options on airline choice is nice.

    Taco Bell

    Cellulose. It's an FDA approve food filler. Lots of food use it.

    Taco Bell

    About 40% meat and the rest is filler, usually cellulose and water.

    Compromise? In this economy?

    **** daylight savings

    The problem is going to be some states picking one and some picking other if they allow opt outs. Looking at you Arizona.

    Sam Neill has died at age 78

    Same. I remember getting that and The Odyssey on VHS that NBC aired the year before. I really miss the network miniseries. Such a good actor. Makes me hate that awful Xfinity commercial airing right now that uses a pretty bad CGI of Alan Grant even more now.

    MLB: ***2026 MLB Season Thread***

    The AL is trash this year, still only 6 teams above .500. Yankees will probably still make the playoffs short of a Mets-like implosion.

    That's a nice beaver you got. Official Buc-ee's love thread

    Just like every chain, it varies by location. I've been in the occasional Wal-Mart where the store is clean and just as many helpful smiles in every aisle that Hy-Vee claims, and I've been in some that made me wish I was armed.

    30 years of sports talk radio.

    I just never felt there was enough local stuff to talk about that warranted all these shows. If they could have consolidated down to a good 2-hour morning show and a 2-hour afternoon show, it would have been better.

    North of the interstate on North Park Drive would make more sense.

    Norway first team in the knockout stage with a lead hitting the 90' mark, I believe.
