flat out cheated
Pretty sad officiating...especially the missed charge late in regulation, right in front of the idiot in stripes. Makes me hate Kansas even more now...- Racer68

HDFS276...loved it! Wife and I took one of the PE courses...don't know the number but it was skin & SCUBA diving. Awesome...only if you love water though!

***OFFICIAL IOWA STATE TO THE BIG EAST THREAD***
Kinda like that idea...make 'em pay. It's amazing what greed is doing to college athletics these days. -
Help choosing a fraternity
You can't blame a guy for asking...it's a message board, you hear all sides! My roommate and I looked into the greek system and had a bad experience at a party one night...a crush party if I remember the name correctly...they attempted to get us to sign on while we were very intoxicated and...- Racer68

What brand of beer did you drink in college?
When in the dorms we always had the Miller High Life big bottles (32 oz.?). Once we moved off campus and had keggers...we would start with 1 keg of Bud Light, and all subsequent kegs would be Milwaukees Best Light but the Keg Shop would give us Bud Light caps to switch them. -
any advice lawn trimmer brands?
Stihl = 2 year warranty ECHO = 5 year warranty, lifetime warranty on driveshaft and ignition 100% of the ECHO line is commercial grade. The competition is not...they have 3 grades of equipment and you really need to watch which ones you buy per the rating on the engine... -
Mower Questions to Toro or not?
As far as I know, Toro makes a steel deck and an aluminum deck, with varying versions of both. The Home Depot only sells the steel deck mowers...cheaper suggested retail. Toro's "cheap" version is actually colored Lawn Boy green and is not the quality line that it once was. -
Mower Questions to Toro or not?
Correct, Toro is Toro no matter where purchased. I work in this industry...the main reason is customer service and service down the road. Dealers give preference to items sold in their shop, and box store units are at the back of the line. I have seen many dealers get back-logged beyond 2-3... -
Premium Gasoline?
Pretty much agree with this...the only suggestion that I would have is to call the service department and ask one of the service techs why they suggest 91 octane. The techs are on the front lines working on them and will know why, and what happens if you use a lesser octane fuel (if there are... -
Farm/Land Prices....
A 120 acre farm not too far from where I live in east-central Iowa went for $11,500/acre last week...would have never thought. -
Vegas
I took a couple of nights at Treasure Island after a business trip there...mentioned that I was there following a business meeting and they upgraded me to a corner suite facing the strip on the 32 floor...what an incredible room! Would highly recommend the hotel. Didn't get into Wynn or a few...
