    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    NorthCyd, don't ever assume anything when referring to my posts. I can be somewhat articulate at times but can display massive failures at getting my point across :D:D:D. I do agree with your point however.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    My point was that in our hierarchy in the NiL theater we wouldn't be making headlines offering record amounts to a single player. Seems with TJ's "team" philosophy, we'd benefit more getting 4 half-million dollar 'right fit" pieces rather than going all in on a single player. Don't know where...

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    I highly doubt you will ever see an ISU logo ever associated with an NIL announcement similar to this, and if you do, we're doing it all wrong

    Don't want to derail this thread as this is worthy of it's own, but why didn't the Doc switch you to a wash cloth and a bar of soap? I've never done the survey but know several including myself that don't use antiperspirants and opt for daily hygiene instead. The human body isn't perfect but i...

    Remember this is not a "roast", not everybody's humor level is the same and you may end up offending someone.

    Best movie ever

    I don't know if I have a "best movie ever" (if that is the intent of this thread) but I have three "most memorable". The first was when I was around 5'ish and got to take a few classmates with me for my birthday party to see Old Yeller in the early 60"s--quite a treat for us at the time. The...

    I am the designated knife sharpener in my family. Wet stone followed with a steel, then wash clean. 2015 your avatar has me wondering, do you wipe before you stand up or do you poop standing up and not wipe at all?

    What's growing? The garden thread.

    I've only planted one variety of tomatoes for several years now--Amish Paste. They are a bit later maturing but have a great flavor and work so much better for sauces and salsa then traditional varieties. Since they don't get cross pollinated I save seed and start my own indoors. I plant them...

    Had something very similar to that spork growing up in the all metal version. It was a bit narrower and we used it for eating out of a grapefruit half. recently, I made one similar to that from an old spoon and used it to pluck the pits out of our semi free stone peaches when canning

    Did anybody use or plan to use seed tapes this year? I think they are cost prohibitive, but an excellent idea. That said, I made my own during all the wet and cold weather. I made tapes for carrots and beets. The carrots I spaced at 1 inch and the beets at three. I’ve always gotten a crop doing...

    This thread is so eye opening! I didn't know people cut pizza rather than folding it in half and eating it like a sandwich. I don't think the seal-a-meal will ever replace melting the bag shut since almost everybody has a propane torch in their kitchen to get the coals started in their oven...

    ***Official 2024 Weather Thread***

    If my memory serves me correctly, 1993 was predicted to be a drought year and ended up as one of the wettest in my farming days. Seems as if there were only two "good"days to plant: Mother's Day and Memorial Day. (I know this is a weather thread and not a planting progress report thread :):))

    I could be mistaken but I thought I read the "normal" for rain, temp, etc. is the average of the previous 5 years, so in effect a floating average
