  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

I need to get in on the coffee discussion from yesterday. I generally drink the Costco Kirkland Columbian Dark Roast. It's ground pretty fine and gives a pretty good flavor for the price.

When I have some extra time, I like this Target brand of coffee.

It's pretty intense for a medium roast, has a nice smoky flavor and a little bit of sweetness.

Only the finest ladies ever get to find out the equipment that I do use.

Got to meet JC the other night. He approached me because I am always talking about daughter's soccer and he saw our Cyclone chairs at the JV game. He introduced himself and being the glib guy that I am I said something like, "Wut?" It took me a minute to connect the dots so I came across as a total idiot (more so than usual, that is). Eventually he thought he was bothering me - but I was still a little out of sorts - so he said he had to go and left. I'm pretty sure he will never talk to me again. Probably the only way I could have made it more uncomfortable for him would be if I had started to undress or asked him to loan me money - or both.

Nobody tell him that I told you all this.

You should have brought me coffee when you introduced yourself the other evening. I probably would have been a more stimulating conversationalist - or on the other hand I might have spilled it on you.

If he approached you with a jar full of keys you would have recognized him

You were fine, if caught off guard a bit. It isn't every day that a stranger introduces themselves to somebody else because you were sitting in an ISU chair. I'll come up and talk to you again if I see you now that I have a better idea what you look like. We do know a couple of the parents on that team that we will stop and talk to on our way through anyway. Next time, I'll bring some extra cash to loan to you (I charge payday loan types of fees) but I would prefer that you keep your clothes on. Actually, my daughter may be done with home tennis meets but we may see you around anyway, especially if I keep stalking you.

Which one of these backstabbers told you I was talking about you?
