Pet Peeves
I hate it when there is a group of 5-10 teenagers just hanging around IN THE STREET!!! I live in DM and run into this one a lot. WTF--get out of the street!!! -

Talking your way out of speeding ticket...
Years ago I was working very late one night. Left work at about midnight, in my p.o.s. 1972 Chevy. There was a bar called Super Toad across the street from where I worked. As soon as I pulled into the street a cop lights me up big time. He comes up to the window obviously po'd and starts... -

LOST: Across the Sea (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)
The thing is, these writers like to make you think one thing and then pull the rug out from under. If Jacob really believes that man is good why did he side with Crazy fake mom, who by the way, completely wiped out that village. Kind of a funny way to show that you believe that man is good... -

LOST: Across the Sea (POSSIBLE SPOILERS)
This might sound stupid but... I was never conviced that Jacobs charcter was "good". In the episode when he and MIB are sitting at the statue and they look out and see the ship approahing, MIB is distressed and says something like "They'll argue and fight." Jacobs recation? "Meh". It seems to me... -

Worst/Crappiest beer you've ever had
Was once so broke only had enough cash for a quart of beer (and the cheapest one the store had!!). Picked up a quart of a hideous beer called Edleweis (sp?). As thirsty as I was it was still undrikable. I have never before or since ever seen this swill for sale. -

A thought
It has occured to me that if the Big 10 expands (which appears inevitable) that sooner or later some of their teams will become a drag on the money pie. At that point they will have to look at "pruning" the league. The most obvious choices to cull from the herd would be Northwestern and Iowa... -

Lost cat in Ames... FOUNDDDD!!!!!!!
After we had our kid my cat said "the heck with this noise" and just took off. 2 years later I'm sitting in my living room and hear several cats on my front yard. I look out and low and behold--my cat was there. She had run off and joined a cat gang!! I went out and got her, but when she saw the... -

Murdered Drake Student
Just a few things First-they haven't found the gun? Kind of odd. Second-not sure I buy into the "recieved threats to his family" idea. If someone is gonna come after your family it GREATLY increases the chance that they will get caught. Third-- I find it hard to believe that someone would tell... -

Vinyl Album Collectors?
Definately a great cover--don't care to much for that LP musically though (just my opinion). My favorite LP cover of all time is King Crimson-In The Court Of The Crimson King. -

Vinyl Album Collectors?
Yes I have that. I also have a copy for sale at the store--Red Rooster Records in Des Moines. -

Vinyl Album Collectors?
Not only do I have a very large (over 1000) Lp collection, I also own a record store in Des Moines. As a huge Stones fan some of my favs are Exile On Main Street, Let It Bleed and Sticky Fingers. Other stuff I like Television--Marquee Moon, Lou Reed-Transformer, Pink Floyd-Animals, heck I could... -

Guess who I had a beer with in Omaha
So I'm sitting in this bar and this rather large dude comes in and sits right beside me. When I glance over I realize it's Leon F-inf Spinks-former HWT champ of the world. He lives in Omaha now. Cool dude. -

What is the state of Iowa State wrestling after this disappointing showing?
Will we win next year? Probably not--Cornell returns 9 starters. As far as what needs to be done to get back on top, there are several things. First off we need to get a different kind of kid into this program. I've followed these guys their whole time at ISU and I love em like they are my own... -

Recruits - (Taylor)
If ISU can get the right coach, we might not lose as many of the recruits as some would think. I work with Weathermans uncle and will talk with him tomorrow and get a little inside info. As far as who could be the guy to keep these recruits in the fold? Two names come to mind, but I won't... -

I want to WIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree somewhat with what you're saying. Do I expect a title every year? No, but like you I'd like one every few years. Can you honestly say you DON'T think the class of Jrs we have now should win a title? Wasn't this a number 1 recruiting class? I guess this is where we disagree. To me, if you...
