    In Memoriam: Ames Business/Restaurants

    We would hit West Towne 3 or 4 times a year. Pre-Covid it was still pretty good, but starting to show some age. Post-Covid it went downhill fast. Food was still ok, but like other people mentioned it just seemed like it needed a major overhaul, and people stopped going which "induced a spin...

    Iowa State Transfer/Recruiting Class 2024

    Don't forget Chatfield. Watson can slide into the undersized 4 for a few minutes a game, especially if he adds a little more muscle in the off-season.

    J'Vonne Hadley (Curtis Jones' cousin) to have zoom meetings with Iowa State & MSU this week

    Student-athletes being paid employees wouldn't be that much different than students receiving work-study money, or grad students being recruited into certain grad programs and being compensated. It's just potentially a bigger check.

    Fallout TV series

    Yeah, the whole "limited series" thing really does a disservice to TV long form character development and story telling. Some shows are ok like that, but I do miss 20+ episodes with filler character episodes that have a few minutes to move story arcs. Think Buffy.... Still one of my favorites.

    Fallout TV series

    You're way too ambitious. I just finished rewatching the last 10 minutes of ep1 before supper because I fell asleep last night. But it seems pretty good so far. Is it living up to your expectations through ep4?

    Would you turn it in?

    One person might be able to keep a secret for a lifetime, but if you live with anyone else it would be nearly impossible. And if more then one person knows it's not a secret. And the secret part is before you even try to spend it all without someone finding out. Sounds like the makings of a...

    Would you turn it in?

    If you find a $100 bill on the ground and no one is around, sure. You find duffle bags with a million dollars, there will probably be someone looking for it, either good or bad. So you'd be sitting there with all that money worrying about being found. Additionally, it would be hard to hide a...

    Realtor recommendations

    He worked for me and my company part-time when was at Iowa State and was awesome to have around back then. I've heard nothing but good things about him as a realtor. We bought our house through Traci and Jennings Real Estate and it was a great experience.

    Kansas State fans are madder than I have ever seen

    I want to see the purple kittens ramped up at the beginning of the game thinking they are going to ruin Iowa State's championship chances only to see the arena empty at the end with maybe some boos at how bad the team is playing.

    *** Official Texas Tech vs #10 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    True, but the students can't show up for a top 10 team? Especially when they love to bag on TOE for not going to games?
