Need Info/Guidance on Prepaid Funeral Plans

MeanDean
Not a fun topic, but...

As I prepare to enter my 8th decade on this planet I need to get this taken care of.

I have my plot and my will/trust done.

I don't really know how it works. I don't want to walk into a Funeral Home knowing nothing.

Any dos and don'ts or pitfalls to watch for. Or recommendations.

Not necessarily specific local providers.

TIA

Anyone have a Moen Smart Sprinkler controller?

jbhtexas
Our yard has widely-varying moisture needs because lawn/garden/flower beds/raised beds/sun/shade/etc. So, being it's 2025 with AI and all, I figured technology could help with this, and I ran across the Moen Smart Sprinkler controller, which is interesting because you can add a WiFi moisture sensor to each zone which can adjust the watering in that zone based on soil moisture. It's not that expensive. However, I checked the reviews that this controller gets on various sites that sell it, and it gets very mixed reviews. On Home Depot, the majority of the 2025 reviews are 1-2 stars, but it also gets frequent 5 stars on other sites. The biggest complaints are that the controller often falls off the WiFi and has to regularly be rebooted, and also the app/controller is buggy such that it doesn't water the zones as expected.

Just curious if anybody here has one, and what your experience has been.

AI roasts B1G schools

qwerty
Someone asked AI to roast B1G schools. These were the only ones I could find. Best line in all of them:
“Wisconsin doesn’t have a party culture. It has a statewide drinking problem disguised as school spirit.”
Best roast: Nebraska by far

Road Game Rankings

Cycsk
Fun podcast by Williams & Blum last Wednesday. Login to view embedded media
I loved hearing them talk about this year's football road trips. Here are their rankings based on the Williams & Blum Fun Meter:

#1 Jonesboro for Arkansas State.
#2 Boulder for Colorado.
#3 Covington, Kentucky for Cincinnati.
#4 Fort Worth for TCU.
#5 Stillwater for Oklahoma State.

So, what do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? How would you rank them? What would you recommend for the road trips?

K-State isn't included because the Ireland trip is in its own category.

Speed! A deep dive.

cyclone4L
One aspect of the Iowa State football program that has consistently seemed to lag behind—especially compared to other teams in the conference—is player speed.

Even during the Campbell era, this was a noticeable issue. However, more recently, coaches like Hank Poteat and Noah Pauley have raised the standard, emphasizing speed in the players they recruit.

Let’s take a look at the high school 100-meter dash times under 11.0s for some of our current players.

For reference:
  • Kene Nwangwu: 10.55s
  • Darien Porter: 10.69s
Current Players:
  • WR Brett Eskildsen: 10.52s
  • WR Dominic Overby: 10.54s
  • RB Aiden Flora: 10.61s
  • S Jeremiah Cooper: 10.65s
  • DB Connor Welsch: 10.66s
  • CB Khijohnn Cummings-Coleman: 10.71s
  • CB Mason Ellens: 10.73s
  • S Carson Van Dinter: 10.73s
  • CB David Coffey: 10.75s
  • WR Karon Brookins: 10.80s
  • LB Will Hawthorne: 10.82s
  • RB Abu Sama: 10.84s
  • RB Carson Hansen: 10.85s
Future Players
  • WR Jeffrey Roberts: 10.69s
  • S Tyrell Chatman: 10.78s
  • S Bryson Williams: 10.88s
Beni Ngoyi and Xavier Townsend never ran below 11.0s

ASMR

C
For many years I naively thought that I was unique when I got a tingly, relaxed feeling when I heard certain noises like someone eating popcorn or the sound of a spoon on a bowl while someone was eating something out of one or to whispering or other random triggering sounds. Then a few years ago I found out this is a very real human thing called Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. Makes sense that I am not the only one in a world of billions who experiences this. Sometimes to go to sleep I play a YouTube video of a woman reading a cookbook in a whispered voice. For me it is more relaxing than anything on the "Calm" App.

2025 VB Season

MuskMisk
It is now a month from the Cardinal and Gold scrimmage, 5 weeks until Drake scrimmage and 6 weeks until the first game (in Ohio).

What are you looking forward to most this season? Any picks for a player to be a great surprise? Any front line combo you look forward to?

Can’t wait till the first serve.

Pet love appreciation thread

C
I literally love my two dogs like family. That's coming from someone who has five children and two grandchildren. I'm not saying that I love my dogs more than my children or grandchildren, but I do love my dogs the same sort of way. I'm 100% sure that I would risk my own life to save either of them (house fire, gorilla or tiger attack or other unlikely event). I just look at my dogs and I see a real connection. I'm almost fully sure that they totally understand human feeling and feel the same way back to me as far as caring and love. I'm not saying this is a dog only thing as I'm sure others feel the same way with cats or other pets. Just holding my Goldendoodle now and watch him look at me made me thought to gush, I'm sure he "gets" me.
