  1. Paul Mills from ORU takes the WSU job. Wasn’t my first choice but seems like he has the fire that our fired coach lacked. He took ORU to a S16 a year ago and back to the tourney this year. See if he can talk our portal guys into coming back and we might have a fighting chance in the reshuffled American next season.
  2. Peter Gabriel, Quebec City, September 8. Not sure what state that is but I am in. Thanks, @sidis
  3. I'm glad Greinke came home. Royals will stink again this year but he will give us something to look forward to every 5th day. “I wanted to pitch from the windup now,” Greinke told the Royals’ website. “So I’ll just do another pickoff and let him take third and pitch from the windup. … So mainly, I was thinking about way too many things instead of getting guys out.” https://www.kansascity.com/sports/spt-columns-blogs/for-petes-sake/article273352095.html#storylink=mainstage_lead
  4. Good list. I would add a trip to the museum for the recovered paddle wheel steamship Arabia.
  5. Any coach that gives Eric Stevenson a scholarship deserves every bit of the shitstorm that follows.
  6. My brothers first job after college (KSU) was as a mechanical engineer for Trane Corp in LaCrosse. I have been familiar with the area since 1980 or so. But, yeah, it's really scenic. Unlike Ames. Or Wichita.
  7. All 2-lane from MC. One of the pleasures of selling equipment to Mom & Pop companies is getting to see some remote and scenic areas that I would never see otherwise.
  8. @Al_4_ISU I've been close to your home. I drove from Mason City to LaCrosse, WI one time. No idea the exact route but we couldn't have been far away.
  9. Zoom in on Wonsevu, KS and I'll wave backatcha.

  11. There is a lot of smoke. NiL jumped big time when Brown was fired and it’s rumored that Koch et al want Jans. We shall see
  12. He was my favorite Shocker when the shit hit the fan here. Real nice guy. time for Jan’s to come home now.
  13. My brother in York, ME just texted that it's coming down at a 2"/hr rate. We're flying out there next Thursday. Get this shit outta the way.
  14. That beta cuck did! Did I do that right?
  15. My wife's grandmother was a real battleaxe. She swore that Charlois beef was tough and flavorless because her mouthbreathing son worked the kill chute at Iowa Beef and told her as much. She always bought a quarter of beef from us whenever we butchered a critter from our 500 head feedlot. We made sure her portion came from a white hided animal. My wife always smiled when that old bag would rave about her beef.
  16. Yeah. This should be a lesson to every school that can give the head job to the interim guy. He did well with Marshall’s leftovers but they all transferred out the following year. he hasn’t been able to recruit to the same level Marshall did. Odd because he was the lead recruiter and good at it. Two years down the drain.
  17. Good info. We are camping at McKinney Falls in April, I'll be sure to bring a better flashlight.
  18. Thanks guys. I've been to all those places but I wasn't in snake mode. Google says they are commonly found in the trees. Is that where you focus when looking specifically for them?
  19. Are the rough green snakes common in the S. Austin/San Marcos area? I really want to see one of those in the wild.
  20. My brother, my daughter and I are trying to decide where to do a meetup so I'll hit you up when we have figured it out.
  21. Thanks! I smell a couple of roadtrips.
