I loved taking my boys to the zoo! They have passed on that love to THEIR children.

Made it about 20 minutes into episode 2 and just turned it off. It's truly awful. Unwatchably bad.
Hansen Agriculture Student Learning Center. South of campus - by the ice rink & dairy farms, I think.
I told everyone 60 is the new 59.The number of my friends who have turned into old people kinda depresses me. 60 being the new 40 my ass. Damn, 60 be the new 75 for some.
I like the Pretenders and back in the day, I used to think she was hot. But she's starting to look more like Ron Wood and Keith Richards.
How the heck does he make it there with a class right before it? I think the adviser didn't advise really well here.
I just had to go look up the definition of "pillaged" because all I could think of was pirates. See definition 2 of entry 1. Sigh. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pillaged
Coolerifyoudid - Office Pirate and Taker of Booty
That would look snazzy engraved on a gold name plate for my desk
Saw the Big Boy come into town yesterday. I could get used to that whistle instead of the current day horns. Also remembered a time when my dad and grandpa took me to the same stretch when I was little to see a steam engine come in.
MrsWx works all weekend so I am trying to figure out how much I hate myself to do something with the kids. Thinking the little petting zoo thing one morning...definitely not doing the farmers market on my own though. Need to run out to the airport to get a picture of something too. #CoolStoryBro
We really enjoy going to Zoos and were members of the one in Wichita when we lived there. I highly recommend it if you are in the area. We are going back to visit in a couple of weeks and are planning on taking the kids there one day.

Well, he's got 10 minutes - maybe 20 if it's over the noon hour. He'd better figure out the Cyride schedules in a hurry.
Seriously. It was rapid fire introduction of cliches and cliched characters for an episode and a half before I went "Oh, no, no, no, they aren't going to have her talking with ghosts!" and turned it off.
Got your hero/heroine lead with a troubled past, check.
Got your spousal unit with child left behind, check.
Got your hologram/android/computer friend with more depth and character than the humans, check.
Got your power hungry #2, check.
Got your pushy ******* reporter, check.
Got you loudmouth crewmember, check.
Got your deep space mission beset by interstellar phenomenon issues, tech failures and human mistakes, check.
And, because a single redemption line isn't enough, you Introduce multiple redemption lines (Katee, the loud mouth, maybe the reporter, the #2, etc). You kill one redemption line (thank god) but can't resist dragging him in as a ghost for the main one. Got five hours to live, let's find a rogue planet and go "mine" oxygen! Top it off by a plot that fills a ship on a mission to save humanity with a bunch of kids just out of college. Explain that this is not a military mission and that will be no discipline or teamwork by "We, don't wear uniforms anymore" so it's casual Friday. Insert sound of Boxster puking because of bad bad bad bad bad sci-fi.

Not sure which one but it was either Keith or Mick looking back at me in the bathroom mirror this morning.
Yeah. And even if the crew were all super-prodigies and the best in their fields (no evidence of that), they obviously received no psychological testing. The only way I could see such a group plausibly coming together would be by accident in a disaster or something.
Today's word is something many of us here practice without being frowned upon. In fact, it often leads to fun stories: teknonymy

Yep, although I've only seen it as HASLC. Just sent this URL to someone coming for a PQA Advisor training next week. Nice building. Can be difficult to leave the parking lot in times of heavy traffic because it's not easy to see to the west. https://www.haslc.ag.iastate.edu/location-and-hours
It's a decent price for such low miles. I don't have any personal experience, but I've recently heard of a few people that had transmission issues with their Dodges.
Disclaimer - I don't remember the model, and they could be isolated or driver-related incidents. I wouldn't let it scare you off.
Have you checked something like KBB or the NADA site?
KBB has that listed quite a bit lower.
