  1. Just an absolute gem of a day in the Driftless. Got a great ride in ahead of my trip to NWA this coming week. Bring on the Back 40.
  2. I love Stillwater. Pawhuska seems kinda like a shit hole outside of the stuff Ree Drummond owns. Very similar to southern Iowa, eastern Kansas, and the bulk of Missouri. Beautiful country though, at the end of the Flint Hills.
  3. My daughter is 7 months and I don't know if it's teething related, or a sleep regression, but the last two weeks I've gotten maybe two full nights of sleep. She wakes up screaming at least once a night, and a lot of nights 2-3 times. She calms down immediately when she's held, but it takes about a minimum of 30 minutes just holding her to guarantee she won't wake up in a rage the second she hits the crib. This is all from a kid that slept straight through the night from birth until recently. And as soon as she starts thrashing, her Owlet has a hard time getting readings and starts into it's "Hush Little Baby" alarm tone. That song is going to bring me to break some shit at some point.
  4. Iowa State/Baylor tips at 8:30 tonight. My god, that crowd is going to be drunk.
  5. I listened this morning on the way to the farm. It's fucking trash, IMO. It clearly isn't the Crowes w/out Gorman. It reminded me of the recent Rolling Stones album.
  6. What is this rain you speak of? https://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/CurrentMap/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?Midwest
  7. Kicking this douche bag’s ass is incredibly gratifying
  8. There used to be a Yesway in Mason City which is an hour west of me. They closed a bunch of stores recently
  9. I never heard it this way organically, but once someone pointed it out to me, I can't unhear it.
  10. Rogan's a shit head, but that clip is pretty obviously cut to make it sound like he's applying his belief that the Biden Administration is incompetent is due to their diversity. That tweet is a bit disingenuous. Of course they could all run intellectual circles around the haze of resin and supplements that comprise his brain matter.
  11. That's my kinda sandwich, got damn it.
  12. And you lived to tell about it, most importantly. Casey's pizza has slipped. When they canceled the made-to-order subs, they really lost me. Those blew Subway out of the water, and in a lot of middle of nowhere towns, they were the only cold sandwich alternative. Individual slices of sausage or beef always work for me, and a few of the specialty pizzas have been good too. The breakfast food all works for me as well. Be it pizza, burritos, biscuits and gravy, etc.
  13. OSU list will be interesting. I would think the 2 Missouri Valley darlings (Schertz at Indiana State and DeVries at Drake) would be on their radar. I think DeVries would kill it there. I don't want him in the Big 12 though.
  14. Yeah, it was time. Always liked the guy, but once they start slamming NIL and the portal and all of that, you just can't have that person leading your program. Plus the results haven't been great.
  15. Yup. It almost doesn't even need to be articulated in our house anymore. She also doesn't even need to see my phone to know I'm posting about my experience at some recommended place either. She can just read it in my face or something. Fucking women.
  16. I know it's sacrileg in this thread, and while I enjoyed my Allsup's burrito, I couldn't help but think that the Casey's breakfast burritos are honestly a little better, and I'm by no means a Casey's honk. 10 years ago they were a powerhouse example of what Midwestern gas stations are all about. Now they're a decrepit monument to what happens when you get publicly traded and try to make shareholders more money by hiring the cheapest (IE worst) help you can. But they still have good food.
  17. I was impressed with him last season, and bought into KSU's insistence that he's the best human ever, but I should know by now not to trust anyone with that much institutional history at Baylor. I had not seen this prior to my post, but spot on.
  18. I really enjoyed reading that, Brisket. I feel the same way about my home state. Have for a long time. Big reason I won't leave despite it going in a direction that makes me not recognize the place I've spent my entire life. I'm raising my daughter here and I hope she can grow up to be the kind of strong, tough woman who can help effectuate change, but it seems far more likely that like your daughter, she'll put Iowa in the rearview and it will be part of her story, but not her future.
  19. Fuck K State. Was really hoping UT would win last night. Instead we've got fucking Farmageddon for the 2nd time in 5 days. Fuck Tang in his fucking lying bitch cunt. I'm pissing on anything purple I see today.
