    A security camera system that fires paintballs

    I want something similar, but hooked up to a decibel meter, and set it up at an intersection two blocks away from me, so when someone floors their very loud vehicle at 2 am in the morning, they get pelted with neon pink paint balls. Yes, I'm an old man who needs his sleep.

    Does ISU have any famous fans?

    Comedian Jake Johannsen went to Iowa State. He has the record for the most appearances on Letterman. I don't think he' s a fan though.

    Best Iowa State point guard

    Tinsley was our best. Eustachy was 57-11 with Tinsley and 44-48 without him.

    Water under the washing machine

    I would run a cycle through and watch what happens. My guess is that your drain is clogged and the water is running down the drain hose.

    State of Iowa rejected vanity license plates

    I think back in the 80's a guy in Waterloo had the license plate 3M TA3 They got lots of complaints when people saw it in their mirror. He claimed it was his business name but had to turn the plates in when he couldn't provide any proof.

    Upcoming Boston Trip

    We just got back from there. We bought a 7 day go city pass that got us into a lot places. Our favorites included Freedom Trail guided tour, Sam Adams, Fenway, USS Constitution, Prudential observation deck, and harbor tour. We bought a Charlie pass which got us 'free' rides on the subway and...

    Gallbladder Surgery/Removal

    Had mine removed 12 years ago. I was really miserable for a few weeks before the surgery. I made two mistakes with the recovery: 1. I tried to lay down in bed the first night. Most painful thing I've ever experienced. 2. I didn't get off the pain meds earlier. Once I quit taking them I...

    Transferring tickets in apple wallet

    Has anyone transferred a Ticketmaster ticket that is in their Apple wallet? Google says that you should be able to do it in the wallet, but it appears Ticketmaster doesn't allow that. It also says you can do it in the Ticketmaster app, but it doesn't show the tickets I have in my wallet.

    Tailgating Stories

    I helped my buddy set up his tailgate one time. He had an early 80s impala. The keg would only fit in the trunk, which meant the grill (The Weber of Doom) would only fit in the backseat. Which presented the problem what to do with the garbage can that held the keg and ice? He told me to roll...

    Tailgating Stories

    Mid 80's. Our house has a tailgate and we are grilling brats. One falls off the grill. A guy, Beav, picks it up and chucks it 20 - 30 yards across the packed lot. Too many people in the way to see where it landed. About 5 minutes later, I see something flying through the air. It's the brat...

    Friday OT (Guest Hosted) - Hop on the Bus, Gus

    Town kid, so a walking home story. In 5th grade, we lived in a hilly part of Southern Iowa. One winter storm left a lot of snow and ice. The sidewalks weren't cleared so I was walking home in the street. In the distance I hear a truck rev it's engine. I turn to see this high schoolers pickup...

    Friday OT #1 - The Grim Spectre

    In the summer during my college years, I worked in the corn fields supervising the detasselers. One day I was stopped on the highway waiting for the on coming traffic to pass so I could turn into the plant. I suddenly saw a Semi barreling down on me with his tires smoking from the brakes being...
