    Criticism of LeBron at Son's Game

    If this reaction was from anyone other than a Pro BB player, any college coach watching would walk away from recruiting the player in no time flat.

    Why isn't gas mileage improving for new vehicles?

    I have kept my cars to 200K without incident. Only the typical oil change, brakes, etc. Someone once told me you spend more on cars, over your life, than you do your house. I get newer used and run them from there.

    Why isn't gas mileage improving for new vehicles?

    Really? Personally, I am actually 30K+ a year on my car. Wife's car is 7 years old at 130K. Work, kids, vacations, ISU games, life all add up.

    I would figure 200K miles to be less than 10 years of life.

    Generation Y and Z Debt

    Not at all, but those professions start with much higher salary than others. I would argue that the debt load for those degrees, with support and or working through school, is manageable.

    Generation Y and Z Debt

    Are wages really flat? I am also curious how many fresh college graduates try to live within their means? Start their budget from the bottom and work their way up? Not to sound to arrogant, but when I graduated, didn't have internet or cell phones, couldn't afford new/er cars, couldn't afford...

    Generation Y and Z Debt

    It might be different for others, but I would say at college graduation. We helped my son through ISU (just graduated), in large part because he worked his butt off, he found a good job, and is now debt free and not relying on us any more (although he has asked if he can stay on our cell phone...

    Big Bang Theory Finale

    Personally, I have enjoyed Big Bang. Laughed out loud a few times during last night's show. Of interest, Story County, IA has the highest per capita viewership of TBBT in the country.

    What is your Pet Peeve

    If I interpreted your statement: "but if I’m in the left lane doing 10mph over the limit, no amount of tailgating me or flashing lights will get me to move over. " incorrectly, I apologize. It left the impression that you stayed in the left hand lane too long.

    What is your Pet Peeve

    But, by parking yourself in the Left lane, you are claiming your speed is more right than anyone trying to pass you.

    What is your Pet Peeve

    So, if I have your attitude and am only driving 5 mph over the speed limit is that OK? Maybe I think you driving 10 mph over the speed limit is 'insanely fast'.

    What is your Pet Peeve

    People that only accelerate to 50 mph when entering the Insterstate Highway. You are supposed to be up to speed by the time you enter the RH Lane.

    Jalen Suggs info (recruiting)

    To that point, I think he only did 1 season of football because he only had 1 semester of eligibility left after his 'senior' year. IE play fall football, but wasn't eligible for the spring semester of BB.
