    Driving rant: PLEASE stop this!!

    The problem today is that you don't complete your left turn on the yellow. That used to be the usual case. But today the cars coming toward you keep going through the light until after it turns red. Then you are completing your turn on a red light. And technically, you are running the red light...

    Crappy cell phone service

    We have had T Mobile about 5 years here in Omaha. Best phone service we ever had. Wherever we travel to, still works great. Have to wonder if it's because of converting from US Cellular? We switched from Verizon because T Mobile has a plan for folks over 55. We get two phone lines, unlimited...

    Driving rant: PLEASE stop this!!

    I suspect you may feel differently about this when you are 70. There is an old movie, Wild In The Streets, where the youth took over and put everyone over 35 behind fencing in camps and took away all their rights. So, be careful what you wish for.

    ***2026-27 College Football (non-ISU) Thread***

    I don't know the details, but perhaps Cal, Syracuse, Purdue and Rutgers didn't lose their entire coaching staff and entire starting rosters (except for FG kicker)? These rankings are not based on any in-depth analysis. Some guy looks at ISU and thinks, huh, they lost everything. So, bottom of...

    Should The Little River Band be in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?

    Yes was so, so popular when I was at ISU. Their songs were always played at parties. Also during my ISU years, Frampton Comes Alive was released. The big thing back then was to have a reel to reel system. People would have Frampton blasting out of their windows as you walked to class or to get...

    Hy-Vee's weirdest business decision yet?

    I get it. Obviously a lot of people shop there. Being retired, we don't buy many groceries anyway. Hy Vee just doesn't fit for us.

    Hy-Vee's weirdest business decision yet?

    I avoid Hy Vee just because I think their prices are high, at least when compared to other large chain stores. And that whole gas thing is such a joke. Get 20 cents off on gas. Save $3.00!

    Serious Question: How does ISUs football recruiting look so far?

    Well, except for the fact that CMC went to PSU at the best possible time ever. Even with all their roster turnover, PSU will be favored in at least 10, maybe 11 or even 12 games this season. Marshall, at Temple, Buffalo, Wisconsin, at Northwestern, USC, at Michigan, Purdue, at Washington...

    Looking for a New Mattress

    Never heard of Zinus. We bought I think a Sealy from Costco, Hated it. We both had back pain. Called them, they sent out a truck to take it back, no charge, full refund. So then we ordered from Costco the 12" Novaform. That was the keeper for us.

    Your Biggest "Coincidence"

    My wife and I worked for the same insurance company but she was in Omaha and I worked at the West Des Moines office. Then the company decided to close our office, so I was out of a job. But then they decided to ask if anyone wanted to move to Omaha, and I figured why not. You just never know...

    ***2026 Iowa State Football Season Thread***

    I decided to buy tickets once I did some analysis of the team. I like Raynor for our QB, I think he can do well here. Like that his coach came with him. Flora we know has speed and Pettaway looks pretty powerful at RB. We brought in a lot of potential at OL. What really sold me was looking at...

    ISU MBB Twitter

    Sounds about right. We have 4 players back that played a lot: Buchanan, Pleta, Toure and Batemon.

    2027 Football Targets

    Well put. Commitments have always been less than 100% solid, but maybe about 95% to 97% or so. Now that cash is a factor, who knows???

    Sorsby, Campbell surrender so fast!!!

    The petition which you posted shows the case is dismissed with prejudice. That means it is final and cannot be refiled.

    2027 Football Targets

    Well, does PSU have the cash to get the overall #9 player? Very few schools do. We always have to remember now, everything from the past is meaningless. The new " blue bloods" are based on cash, not reputation.

    Who would you delete?

    Texas Tech. You know, when we had guys caught gambling, I don't recall ISU or even fans trying to defend cheating the way TT has done. Just disgusting!

    Big XII options for sanctioning Texas Tech

    That's my big question. Hasn't this ruling established that the NCAA cannot enforce its rules? So, no more penalties can be called during any game. You try to call my defender for targeting Soresby, eject my player? Nope, Soresby broke a rule and he gets to play. Now my player broke a rule, but...
