    Any Teachers Out There?

    I agree. It wasn't the hours or the students that concerned me the most, it was the lack of support from the administration and the parents and the mounds of paperwork that come from the state and federal government. It is always something new and with it comes extra work. Wouldn't be so bad...

    Weather for Saturday at K-State

    That is correct. Was there for the game. Koch was a monster. he couldn't be stopped. In retrospect, maybe we should have featured him a little bit more during his senior year. Maybe a couple of those losses could have been wins.

    Do you have I-State vanity plates?

    Bingo. When I taught school, students would try to figure it out, some not very well. Saw a black pickup in Des Moines with Hawkeye vanity plates that were the same as mine. Copy cat! I had mine for the last seven years.

    Student Tickets for OSU

    You can't do that anymore because they may eventually be an ISU recruit and that can be viewed as a violation of rules. My son used to bring Cub Scout Pack for raising of the flag and they got cheap tickets. The next time they wanted to do it they were told that they could no longer offer the...

    So have you had a professor fail a whole class before?

    Back in prehistoric times (1971) I had a professor in Organic Chemistry that was so tough, you might get a "7" on a 100 point test and be one of the top grades in the class and a "O" was still passing. You missed double if you answered a question and your answer was wrong. If you didn't know...

    Dealing with Mediacom Rates

    In a lot of communities the problem is there is no good competition. Just not enough subscribers to draw in another company. Dish is not always the solution when you want certain channels like Mediacom 22, etc. I was the local chair of our Cable TV commission and basically our hands were tied...

    Windshield repair

    Most insurance companies fix windshield damage and cover it as part of your insurance if you have comprehensive insurance. I had a crack fixed on the recommendation of our insurance agent saying it wouldn't be noticeable. WRONG!!! I should have made them pay for the whole new windshield and...

    KO

    I realize that 40 years ago football was a little different than it is today but I had an ankle injury that I played on through the whole season. Couldn't play defense because it would get smashed right away and when piling occured on offense it would get hurt all over again just not as bad if...

    Email Complaints to Capital One thread

    I don't know what is going on with the votes, but I just voted 20 times by computer and the tally hadn't changed. This voting thing is a hoax. I wouldn't blame any of us if we just stopped voting. Period. How would that look, maybe Capital One wouln't care. They sure didn't have any trouble...

    If we let ourselves get beat we are saying that we cheated and can't muster the votes legally for a win. I am offended. Let's kick ****!

    Prediction: Iowa @ ISU

    I would like to think that Iowa State fans would believe that Iowa State can win. Iowa's opponent last week was not a UNI. We had a lot of unknowns heading into the game. Took players a while to get adjusted and we have several players out for the game before the opening kickoff. I can see...

    Schools letting out early because of heat

    I taught for 37 years. Never had air conditioning in the classroom. I remember when I was in school we never let out for heat. Big difference today is that buildings are not built with big windows that open up for a little air movement. Today you sweat your ***** off and pray they let you and...

    Pete Taylor Media Room

    I grew up listening to Pete Taylor call ISU football. When I became a student at ISU I realized how important of a figure he was in ISU athletics. He is definitely missed and deserves to be so honored.
