    Meeting CFers in non-virtual settings

    I've met most of the mods and just about anyone who ever showed up to a CF tailgate. I couldn't even begin to name them all. There was also a game watch and a WDM CF lunch get-together that had a few that might not have made it to the tailgate party.

    Anybody going to see "Half-Blood Prince" tomorrow?

    The movie Hannibal Rising was very close to the book. I completely understand the few parts they left out - they either added very little or were a little more racist that was really needed to get the point across. Over all, I've never seen a movie that was so similar to the book. That being...

    Are your parents on Facebook?

    I don't need FB for that. I have a lady I work with who goes around asking other people if I'm pregnant and wants to know everything about everyone. I'm sure she's never even heard of FB before.

    Are your parents on Facebook?

    I highly doubt my parents are on FB. I'm not sure my dad even knows how to turn on a computer. That being said - I'm not on FB either.

    Poorest college moment?

    I lived with my parents for the first couple years - meant I had to get up early and drive into Ames every morning, but it was free living, free food. When I moved out, I got a cheap apartment and in the winter we kept the heat down to 55 degrees so the utility bills wouldn't be too high. Also...

    Two of my favorite new websites

    I made it about 4-5 pics in on the thisiswhyyourefat before I decided I'd puke if I saw any more. Those are nasty.

    ISU plates FYI

    I've seen this. I think the guy said it's part of his last name, so they DOT allowed it.

    Outside of the Sears Tower

    I would definitely do the Sears Tower thing - but I don't think I would go all the way out on the Grand Canyon thingy - part of they way, maybe, but I don't know about all of the way.

    Exchanging Foreign Currency

    I could be wrong, but I think technically any bank attached to the FED is supposed to be able to convert. Smaller banks that get their cash from bigger banks usually won't do it, but the big banks like Wells, BOA, etc should be able to take care of this for you. I'd call the branch first just to...

    Tips for a new homeowner

    Do grass seed instead of sod - sod may be easier now, but grass seed will look a lot better next year.

    10 best concerts you've been to

    I completely forgot about that one! I love FM! The thing I hated about that concert was that it was at the Val Air. HORRIBLE acoustics in that place. I could only understand the songs I had actually heard before. Worse than most concerts I've been too along that line. And I'll probably never go...

    Vibe, Torrent, Equinox, Escape

    Personally, the only issue I've ever had driving the Matrix in the winter is getting in/out of my driveway - when the hubby hasn't gotten around to clearing the snow. It is lower to the ground than the Escape, etc. but that's part of what makes it so fun to drive, especially in the winter. I...
