    OT - Cutting Cable

    I mentioned much earlier in this thread, but has anybody else discoverd IPTV providers? Dirt cheap(20 - 25/mo) almost all channels available. We were using simplytv, but that was shut down again. Looking at using another IPTV. What are some of the other IPTV providers that you like using...

    Campustown Question

    If you go to Jimmy's, in Boone, it is very similar. The guy that owns it used to work at battles.

    Campustown Question

    I used to park in the residential area behind the student government lot, just so I could have the pleasure of walking past Battles and the smells. Ohhhhhh, the smells! And, then on Friday afternoons treat myself to some brisket and lemonade! God, I miss battles(the old battles)!

    Hilton update...

    Please bring back COKE! I think the renovations look GREAT! It definitely adds more room, softens the look with the lighting, but doesn't really change the look/shape of Hilton... only enhances it!

    Yes I am strongly considering doing this. Just so we have an independent eye on things.

    New build issues with local area builder.

    Yes, we ave a 1 year builder's warranty..... And to be fair, they are getting people out here to look at things, and get them fixed, but My concern is, if they had an issue like this after less than two months, what other things are we going to find? I think we might have dodged a bullet with...

    New build issues with local area builder.

    An update for those that are interested: Saturday, while at the game, I get a call rom my wife stating that there is now a drip in the living room ceiling! I leave the game early to go home and see what I can see. Not much to see from the outside.... most of the snow has melted by this point...

    New build issues with local area builder.

    Our builder only has one complaint with the BBB, so I trust they have a LOT of satisfied customers in the Ames area.

    New build issues with local area builder.

    We got him in this morning and he tried the humidity argument with me. I pushed back with the fact that I am seeing little to no condensation on my windows, humidity was stable around 29 to 34%(on the very low side of what is acceptable). I straight up told him it had to be some weak points...

    House was fully finished by the builder. It was a spec home that had been on the market a while.

    New build issues with local area builder.

    It's a pretty reputable builder in central iowa. I won't name names until this goes any further. Supposedly the foreman that was sent out to us was one that has a bit of reputation for being difficult(per my wife's friends). I will talk to the guy myself tomorrow, and give them a chance to...

    New build issues with local area builder.

    Got home to get a quick look at things before heading out to the game..... three different spots all on outside walls. All of the frost was gone and most of the moisture was gone. It looks like it must be condensation. They are going to blow insulation on the new house going up across the...

    New build issues with local area builder.

    I haven't had a chance to inspect it myself, but she did find the same problem in two other rooms, one of which is in the interior of the house and nowhere near any of the gutters or eaves.

    New build issues with local area builder.

    So we just moved into a new construction in the middle of December. Today, while at home with the kiddos, my wife notices some wet spots in the exterior wall/ceiling joints, one of which has started to freeze. The builder sent out a foreman to inspect and he says to my wife, that there is just...

    Prohm is not the best tactician

    I thought that the last cyclone possession(or what should have been) was the place to call a timeout. I believe we rebounded the ball with something like 30 some seconds, i think we were down by 2. But I also understand the philosophy of letting the kids do what they have been learning in...
