    Your Biggest "Coincidence"

    ADVERTISEMENT Losing our dog was the hardest thing I've dealt with, honestly. I had not lost a parent or pet to that point in my life. It all happened so fast it was honestly just a shock. We went from "he's acting funny" at 7am to "its time to say goodbye" at noon on the same...

    Easement question

    They are doing the same in our neighborhood in central Iowa. They marked all the utilities last week. We have a corner lot and I have a tulip bed in the grass portion on the corner between the two sidewalks. It came with the house so I didn’t plant it but it’s full of well established tulips...

    Your Biggest "Coincidence"

    I'm not in any way equating this to your situation, but I had this exact thing happen with our first dog. He was about to turn 10. Our dog was in great health and had never had any issues to this point. I was having a beer with a friend one afternoon and I was going on about how great of a dog...

    Favorite part of ISU campus

    There's a white flowering tree behind Marston Hall on the path toward Parks Library. I believe it's a snowdrift crabapple. It smelled so good in spring time. I always loved walked through there and smelling that tree. BTW - Campus has a tree inventory, if anyone is interested...

    Football traditions.

    Yes. Wisconsin does it at the end of the 3Q. The students and a lot of the stadium get into it. Pollard came from Wisconsin and since we had almost zero game day traditions, he tried to copy that. It didn’t stick. I’m glad things like Juicy Wiggle happened organically.

    Football traditions.

    I was in the marching band way before either of the end zone projects. It’s hilarious (and sad) to look at what the stadium was like before the two giant screens were added. The screen in the south end zone was all we had. I think there are homes with bigger screens now. And the speakers were...

    Football traditions.

    For those who may not know the back story here… When Pollard first came on board, they tried all kinds of things to improve the game day experience and get the fans engaged. That included straight up copying Jump Around from Wisconsin at one point. They came up with a new cyclone chant and it...

    Dumbest Thing You Believed

    I’ve been racking my brain trying to think of something that applied to this thread. Last night our family had a fire pit and it hit me… When I was a kid and we had camp fires, my uncles convinced me that “little boys who play with the fire wet the bed.” Believed it well into college before...

    Lilacs not flowering

    We had that freak blizzard in either march or April, I can’t remember. That’s my explanation. Our tulips were already popping up and it was a -5 wind chill one day. Our tulips all flowered but their tips were brown. I suspect the same event did in the lilac and that’s why it’s not blooming...

    wi-fi extender

    Are you referring to a mesh system? We have an old house with thick plaster walls. Our modem/router are on the main floor. WiFi signal around the house was terrible until I bought these: https://a.co/d/094VxUvK They don’t get 100% of the connection everywhere but they definitely helped me get...

    What % of your takehome pay are you spending on living expenses?

    No he would not. I use a credit card almost daily. I also have a car payment. I also don't spend any money on his ELPs or Churchill Mortgage or Zander Insurance and I don't buy his books. The Money Guys would be proud though! With the exception of my car payment that I didn't quite follow their...

    What % of your takehome pay are you spending on living expenses?

    I grew up in a situation with low financial security until I was about 12. That impressed an unhealthy level of worry about financial security onto me later in life. I've got better in the last few years about realizing that money is a tool, not an end unto itself. I'm fortunate to have a good...

    Did all the FB Transfers find a home?

    Sama is an elite lateral running back. Unfortunately football requires forward advancement of the ball.

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

    I've seen a huge jump in the last two weeks. Someone at work showed me how he used Claude to create HTML tools for data analysis. In about 90 minutes, I created a dashboard that analyzes our sales data and puts it into a visual format that is easy to digest and highlights important gaps. I...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    I know this wasn't your point and I'm just venting here. But I'm so tired of the straw man arguments that keep getting brought up on the IE/CF podcasts saying fans "just don't understand." I really dialed back on the Two Guys podcasts after (just being honest) all the crying about the FB team...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    Yes. UCONN and South Carolina dominate the sport. Barring a major injury, you can go ahead and put those two in the FF next year. LSU is in that group, usually. Anyone outside those few is a crap shoot every year. The schools listed have won 4 of the last 5 titles. So, sure, OSU has a chance...

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    Exactly. Are they there to win first or are they there because that's who offered the most? Both those things can happen, but my guess is it won't happen at OSU this year.

    Audi Crooks to Transfer

    It takes a lot more than highly paid players to win a championship, that's for sure. This is especially true in college WBB. The chances are very small when one of your key pieces is a significant liability on the defensive end. There's also the luck factor. They have a "big 3" but one turned...

    WBB: 2026 Transfer Portal

    Based on the jersey color and the dog in her post, I assume its Mississippi State.
