    Great news headline

    This is a news story headline that I didn't have on my bingo card: https://abcnews.com/US/quadruple-amputee-cornhole-champion-facing-murder-charges-fatal/story?id=131339058 Took me awhile to wrap my head around the mechanics of both the cornholing and the murdering.

    Coach Otz staying put!

    I know we're all upset with tonight's loss, but at least there's this fantastic news. Coach Otz isn't going anywhere! He's chasing greatness in the victory orange.

    Hilton Coliseum Renovation

    Saw this on Facebook, you know, the place old people fall for AI slop. But, this looks legit! Way to go, Jamie Pollard for pulling this off!

    Sunday Scaries

    Do you all get the Sunday Scaries, i.e. the dread and worry that Sunday afternoon/evening brings, knowing a full week of work is ahead? I have a mostly stressless job, but evenso, every Sunday I mourn the impending loss of freedom that Monday brings. If this is you, what are your coping...

    Anyone wanna see a picture of my stinkhorn?

    Made you look, pervs. This is a really cool fungus that smells like poop or a something dead, which attracts beetles and flies which then help to disperse its spores. It looks like something else, too...can't quite place it, though.

    Campus incident at Texas Tech

    I've never seen green fire coming out of a manhole (although I've eaten some pretty spicy chicken wings). https://www.kcbd.com/2025/03/13/explosion-substation-texas-tech-campus-cause-power-outage/ https://www.facebook.com/share/r/16GVe8Foiv/

    Artificial Intelligence: How are you using it in everyday life?

    My company is plunging headlong into using AI and we're all tasked with becoming familiar with the ways it can help us, both as a business tool and personally. What are your go-to tools and uses? I've started using it for more complex queries I would usually go to Google for. I've also used it...

    Chasing the total wins record

    The 2000 team being in attendance today got me thinking about if this year's team would have a shot at the all-time season wins record. Here's my back of the napkin math on this, making some assumptions: We had 10 wins in the non-con We go 15-5 in conference (puts us at 25 wins going into the...

    Electrical advice/troubleshooting

    I am not a particularly handy guy, so I'm turning to CF for some help. I was sitting in our sunroom this morning when the overhead lights went out. I figured a breaker tripped, but that wasn't it. Something similar happened awhile ago and it was a GCFI outlet that had tripped, but unless I've...

    10 wins

    OK, maybe this doesn't deserve a thread of its own, but I went to ISU in the 90s and we won 10 games combined in my 4 years in Ames. I had season tickets in the 0-10-1 season. Pretty amazing that we have won that in one season. What Matt Campbell has done here is just short of a miracle to...

    Do you wash your meat?

    Purposely provocative thread title, but I am generally curious... I saw a social media post of someone cooking steaks on a flat top grill, and she opened up a package of steaks and put them right on the grill. The comments were filled with people outraged/disgusted that she didn't wash the...

    Doritos Flavor-Blasted Liquor

    From the release, it "opens with umami and tangy aromas of nacho cheese, moving to the deeper, corn-forward flavors of the chip to finish on a soft salty note”. I've often been snacking on Doritos and thought, "I'd love a smooth-sipping nacho cheese drink."...

    Kid names

    I got this idea from an entertaining Reddit thread... What is the weirdest kid name(s) you have personally witnessed? I'm not talking urban legends (Twins named Lemonjello and Orangejello) or any of Elon Musk's kids' names. I have a few, all from working in an urban school district in...

    Lance Blanks RIP

    Somehow I missed that he died a few days ago, and now his daughter has come out and announced he died by suicide. The guy was not my favorite announcer, but seemed like a quality human and it just goes to show how terrible depression and mental health issues can be...

    Tamin Lipsey-Steals record watch

    So, Lipsey currently has 62 steals, which is 9 off the freshman single season record set by Hunter last year. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if he could beat that? It will be tough without at least a couple of wins in the postseason. He averages about 2 a game, so with 4 games he could get there.

    Biggest year-to-year jump

    I was recently thinking about Lafester Rhodes, as we all do from time to time. We all know about the 54 point explosion against Iowa, but maybe people don't remember how great of a season he had that year, averaging 22.5 PPG and 7 boards per game. Up until his senior season, he averaged about 3...

    Hail damage (car)

    Our car got quite a bit of hail damage a few weeks ago. It's an oldish car (2015) with just over 100,000 miles on it. At the time, I didn't think it was worth the deductible to get it fixed, but I'm having second thoughts. Anyone else dealt with this and have pros/cons?
