    Return of the Superdog!

    I am too old for Superdogs; they showed up as I was done in 2005/2006. But getting those gyros, double feta, no veggies was awesome. I like peppers and onions generally speaking, but this was the way to go.

    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    I don't understand how people can temp probe ribs. What I mean is, I don't understand how you can feel confident you're getting an accurate, representative temperature between a couple little bones. I just use the 'bend test.' Pick the rack by the end, when it 'bends' and starts to tear away...

    That's kinda how insurance works.

    Scheelhaase to Rams

    I'm not gonna lie, there were a few weeks in there where I thought it was just so crazy that it might work

    Fan Duel evidently has our O/U at 7.5 wins... Thoughts?

    I just turned 40 a few months back and it has happened 4 times in my life. I would like to think we'd do better but I'm not putting any money down.

    Random Power Tool Help

    I don't know, but I bought the same one and it came right after the last snow. Sounds like you're squared away now.

    Why is life worth living?

    Fred was right when he said Social Media will be the end of humanity, or however he worded it. My girls are 6 and 9, and I'm going to keep them off it as long as possible. Growing up is tough enough without additional bullying and constantly feeling inadequate in everything that you do.

    What did Otz screw up this game

    Looks to me like he's about ready to say, "TICKLE MONSTER!"

    Jess Settles

    They were okay but I'd believe it if you told me they weren't actually there. Sometimes they weren't paying attention to the game.

    Ames Lager

    What does any of that have to do with Bud Light? I mean, from Anheuser's perspective.

    Best Iowa State point guard

    I think it has to be Tinsley, but Monte is closer than most think. Monte maybe from a pure PG standpoint of passing, but Tinsley more overall. I remember watching Halliburton play at ISU, but I don't remember being 'wowed' by him as much from a PG standpoint as Monte, or Tinsley. NBA-wise...

    Super Bowl Commercials

    The commercials were funny in the late 90's and into the 00's. There's been a couple of funny one since, but all and all, not.

    Ames Lager

    I'm a date checker, probably to a fault, but it really isn't as big of a deal on non-hoppy beers, lagers even more so. But i agree, in general, we want fresh beer!

    Muscatine students get all expenses paid trip to China

    My dad told me to take advantage of every travel opportunity while I was young. It would never be easier or cheaper. He was (is) right on both points. I've traveled a lot since then, but it's not easier or cheaper. :)
