Only graduate transfers are thugs. I always felt sorry for him because his own fans were so hard on him.- tec71

Iowa Basketball Recruiting
I'm too lazy to find the link but I recall reading (in a real story not a message board post) that he had an offer at one time from both but both went in a different direction. I don't know if that was because they revoked the offer before he accepted or because it was a "first one to accept...- tec71

Most Annoying Friend
I have to add a couple more that irritated me this weekend. 1. Repeatedly trying to recruit people for whatever multi-level marketing program/scheme you are involved in. 2. Repeatedly telling me great the product is that you sell through your multi-level marketing program/scheme. I actually... -
Who was your greatest dog ever?
My wife had a yellow lab when we first dated and got married who was awesome. He never barked. Never ate shoes. Stayed off the furniture. Pee'd on command (like a girl). When he was a puppy (less than 2 years old) whenever my MIL would visit he would go in the spare room when she wasn't there... -

Ryan Anderson Visit
He wasn't that good. We didn't really want him. :jimlad: Seriously though what the hell does it take to send CW on a little mini vaca with the wife so we can close the deal on something like this. Nothing fancy, just a little Mall of America action or something like that. Maybe the waterpark in...- tec71

Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
I don't know if it's been posted here or anywhere, and I'm sure there are other good sources too but I stumbled on this and I found it to be a great resource for crystalizing the backstory to GOT if you are interested in a good read. They are advocating for a prequel series but I think it's a... -
Allergies
I have been a terrible allergy sufferer for 20 years. I second the zaditor recommendation. Good for the eyes. I was also good for a steroid shot in May and August due to my particular allergies. Probably about 18 months ago I started shots. I no longer need any pills, and haven' needed zaditor... -
Most Annoying Friend
1. Game Requests just kill me, although I've gotten good at ignoring them. 2. Great point by one of the earlier posters "If you don't have a friend like this you are that friend." 3. Complaining all the time about everything. I don't have enough money. Life is so rough on me. My job sucks. My... -
Most Annoying Friend
I hate the begging for interest post. The vague and ambiguous post that's just begging for someone to say "What's wrong?" I also hate the prayer requests for every little miniscule thing in their lives. So annoying. -
Iowa Basketball Recruiting
I think JM does a great job. He's pro-hawk enough that there's a faction of the CF crowd that thinks he's a homer, and he's a realist enough that there's a faction of the HN crowd that thinks he's a turncoat negative Nancy. In a business that is pretty hard to win in I'd take that if I were him.- tec71

Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
That's the explanation that I have in my head. If he wasn't faced with some punishment that's some serious "Ned Stark" like honor to do that. The other thing I don't know if I have handle on is if Jorah was "exiled" as in forcibly sent away in punishment for slaving, or if he's in "exile"... -
Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
This is off the current topic, but someone posted about Geor Mormont and Jorah in the tv thread and I didn't want to spoil it. (I'm nice like that). I know Jorah is in exile for slaving because he wanted to provide for his wife who was a big spender (I think. I don't remember if that was a tv... -
McDonald's Drive Thru Lady - Love her or Hate her?
FYIY. You've been around long enough that this couldn't have been news to you. -
McDonald's Drive Thru Lady - Love her or Hate her?
I find her mildly annoying. I find the woman at the 36th street Kum and Go in Ankeny to be really annoying for some reason. She's always calling customers "dear" and **** like that. It's odd because in my 30 - 60 second interaction with her she can call me "sir" like 7 times, which for some... -
Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
It has admittedly been a while since I've read the books but I don't remember ever getting the clear explanation for the death of John Aryn. Did they explicitly say that Lysa killed him in the books? (at the behest of Peter) -
Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
I'm watching the last episode again tonight. It's odd to me that the guy that Tyrian replaced with bron as captain of the city watch is sitting at the head table after only being there a relatively short time. -

Games of Thrones Book Thread (With Spoilers)
It seems to me that through a few episodes in season four they've substantially deviated on major plot points more than they did in any other season. I'm not too hung up on it, but it's interesting to see it start to become it's own somewhat rather than a strict adaption. It's not like they...
