    WBB: Niagara vs ISU

    Colorado brings a real buffalo to their games, LSU brings a tiger, even Iowa State brings a tornado every once in a while; but Niagara brings a real waterfall? Now that's impressive.

    Pipe Burst in Hilton!

    I'd bet money it's a fire suppression pipe. Water can sit in the ends of those things for years and you can imagine the smell when it finally comes out.

    I'm at 17.5 but I'm going to go ahead and round that one up to 18 for legal reasons.

    On a completely unrelated note, this past weekend I had the chance to explore the farmstead where my grandma grew up and my dad spent a lot of his time. The barn is the only thing left standing. They sure don't make 'em like that anymore. I found initials and dates carved into the walls where...

    Physics is through DMACC and there's practically no homework so that helps. I'd say the averages for the classes are consistently that low. I've heard similar stories from people who took the classes way before I did. I'm on pace to pass all of my classes so far so I'm not too worried about the...

    I'm taking 22 credits including physics, statics, and calc 3 this semester. On the bright side, I have class from 1pm - 5pm every day so I guess I got 1 of the 2 right. These days I'll take 50% :confused:

    A question for the current and former members of the academic world: what are your thoughts on classes that have consistently low average grades? It seems like every year classes such as Physics, EM classes, and the Calculus track have a terrible final class average. For example, I took Calc 2...

    Went to the post office to mail my absentee ballot request form and buy a book of stamps and I waited in line for a solid 20 minutes. I guess I'm used to small town life where you can be in and out of a place in less than 5 minutes (unless of course you run into someone you know and have the...

    Hilton Magic is streaming live on FB

    The lower sides were full. One end was taken up by the band and the other was mostly empty. Nobody in the balcony. But, the crowd was energetic and responsive for the most part so that made up for the light numbers.

    Hilton Magic is streaming live on FB

    Not sure if they had started streaming by then but Jameel McKay was in the audience. Got a nice cheer from the crowd. He cut all his hair off so no one recognized him!

    Hilton Madness was fun. Definitely improved from last year. Bringing back the dunk contest was a no-brainer. I also loved how they included the band. I'd rather listen to their music any day over the generic rap stuff they usually play.

    My friends and I did the math one time and the calories we got for school lunch was about half of the calories that we would burn during a normal cross country practice. No wonder I would go home and immediately head for the snack food. I was always starving after practice.

    Absolutely together! Although I will admit I do love some homemade cornbread. Winter food is so much better than summer food.

    Honey whisky is my go-to on the rare occasion I drink hard alcohol. Also, ham and bean soup is my favorite winter meal but a very close second is chili and cinnamon rolls.

    Friday OT: Misunderstandings

    I always thought the OT in Friday OT stood for overtime. I knew it was an extra thing to talk about and it was always at the end of the week so it made sense. But off-topic makes more sense I guess.
