    Friday OT - Names

    Also, had a friend name his son Trice...never heard that before. I am so jealous I didn't think of it earlier. It's unique, but if you live in Iowa, it's a name you've heard often.

    Friday OT - Names

    My wife and I had a terribly difficult time coming up with a first name for our son. I wanted to use Leslie as the middle name, it's my middle name, my dad's first name, and my grandpa's middle name...so I wanted to keep that going. Finding a name to go well with Leslie was difficult. We...

    Friday OT - In-laws

    My MIL came from a very well-to-do family, so she is always uber-polite, almost to the point it makes me sick. She is also real passive-aggressive, kind of annoying. FIL is pretty awesome, I'm sure if it weren't for his kids and grand kids, he'd become a mountain man in Alaska, living off the...

    ***Official Friday Confession Thread***

    My mother-in-law is going through this now. Her parents were LOADED, assets and such worth a couple of million. Luckily, all the children were mildly successful on their own, and there isn't a ton of fighting. However, some of the grandkids already spent their inheritance, that hasn't come...

    Mother's Day gifts-For the wife

    I ordered a custom Iphone case from Shutterfly, with pictures of the kids on there. My wife is terrible at buying things for herself, so I just pay attention when she says, "Oh, I need to get one of those." Then I order it and bang, Husband of the year!The questionnaire thing is awesome, I'm...

    Start Ellerman (and Palo) on Senior Day

    I'm willing to bet that both get PT if the situation presents itself...I think Coach Hoiberg owes Palo some PT, no matter what President Leath has told Coach about the situation.

    How fast do you drive on the Interstate?

    I usually go between 8-10 over on the interstate, and 5-7 everywhere else. Of course, I live in Cedar Rapids, so the three lanes of 380 is left lane-5 over, middle lane-speed limit, right lane-5 under. The worst drivers in the state live here.

    Sucker bet?

    I thought I made a pretty good bet. At halftime of the game, I proposed this,' The loser would have to change his Facebook Profile Picture to the logo of the opposite school, and post the final score everyday until his team loses again. So, my buddy now has a ISU logo profile picture, posts...

    Feel free to use the ISU Ticket Trader, a FB group of almost 5,000 people

    You can also do this through the university. I did it for the UNI game and it works pretty slick.

    Friday QOTW - 8/23 - What parental advice has always stuck with you?

    Also, my uncle always use to say, No matter how good you are at something someone, sometime is going to come by and do it better. In other words be humble, and not a jack***.

    Direct tv dish

    Try calling a local dealer, they are more apt to come out and help out. I had a guy in Cedar Rapids that I could call when my Dish would get all screwy and he would be there within the day.

    Help with wedding day "to do list"?

    Find some time before all the events of the start, and be by yourself. On the day of my wedding, I got up early-ish and went out and sat lakeside to just hang by myself. It felt kind of like a goodbye to my single days and a good job not screwing things up to bad, to that point. Find sometime...

    Friday QOTW! 4/5 - What is the worst party you have ever been to?

    Is it possible that the worst party ever hasn't happened, yet? Because, I'm not really looking forward to this gender revealing party, I have to attend. My wife is pregnant with our second child, and my sister-in-law wants to throw this stupid party to find out the gender of the baby. It's a...
