We saw a pickup truck decked out like this in Arlington. Unfortunately the picture I took was really washed out so you couldn't see all the colors.
NIL kinda dampened my enthusiasm (thanks Jorbo) of coming on here and enduring the many echo-chamber honorary members of The View on this board. I was kinda happier too.
Gotta read some basketball tonight though.
Something Random for this thread? hmmmmm I heard today that the next Mission Impossible movie has been re-branded as Mission Impossible 8, Final Reckoning. Tom Cruise is gonna get that life-time achievement Oscar somehow.....that role is out there yet.

Broke my big toe in 2018 and wore a boot for 6 weeks. Luckily it was in late summer/early fall, so I didn't have to worry about the snow & cold. They gave me an option of that or an awkward velcro sandal. I tried on the sandal, laughed & said better give me the boot to wear. The sandal was a tripping hazard waiting to happen.

When you talk about underwear you say a pair of underwear. If you have 2 sets of underwear, is it a pair of a pair of underwear or just a pair of underwear ?
Found this forum discussing the pair of underwear topic if anyone is interested.

pair of underwear
Why do we call it a pair of underwear when there's only one?
Thinking about it, why is a thong and not a pair of thongs?Found this forum discussing the pair of underwear topic if anyone is interested.

ISU is getting soft. My kid doesnt have to take his stat final because they drop the lowest test grade. He claims he never attended his stat class.

That's been a thing for some for decades.
Been a long time since I zero tipped a waitress, but I did it tonight. She was TERRIBLE. Showed up to take my order and never returned, added a side and they ended up being half warm soggy fries, the other waitress finally brought me ketchup when mine never returned. I needed the beer separate from the meal for expense account. So technically she got tipped 2 cents when she didn't return the change.
Didn't even feel bad about not tipping service that terrible. I don't care if that makes me a bad person

Just a little funny for you. We have a cat that likes to sit behind Lew in his office chair. She doesn't care if he squishes her. Midway through the second half he started talking to her (common state of affairs around here), accusing her of rooting for the Hawkeyes. He ordered her to knock it off because this is a Cyclone family and house. Shortly afterward, the Clones went on a run and tied it up for the first time since the first few minutes of the game.
So.
You can thank Button for the Cyclone win.
You're welcome.

A coworker (hawk fan) went to the game and texted “good lord they are huge! Are you giving your team HGH?” And just told her that is what a real team looks like.Just a little funny for you.

I've felt that way about other teams at many many football games!
There's been a couple of times I haven't tipped. Service has to be real bad if I don't tip.
The last time was less than a year ago. I wrote on the check "NO SERVICE" It was at a hotel. When I checked on the hotel bill breakfast wasn't on there so they must have comped it.
Another time I was at a Village Inn, the coffee was cold so it was obvious they just grabbed a pot that someone left at their table. Then she brought me the wrong food. I told her and she looked at her pad and confirmed what I had actually ordered. Then she came back later with the wrong food again, it was obviously old. I asked her if she was just giving me leftover stuff that was made by mistake.
