Not much. GTO tired and sweaty from dancing, WDSM finally found your girl on Facebook with lots of help, Nickels watching a movie, Hoiberg meltdown lessened a bit as #LetsGetHorny now trending thanks to Cyclone Nation.
I'm proud of my 7-month old pregnant wife. She actually got out there and danced for a bit. My son was doing the robot and got in full character. I think he was a robot for at least 5 songs in a row.

On my second pregnancy, if I danced at seven months they would have had to mop of the floor. That boy was over nine pounds by the time he arrived.

I love their comedy skit, and love their YouTube videos, so I'm partial, but I'm totally digging the tv series Garfunkel and Oates.

(Warning: some of the performances (comedians that do songs) while sounding innocent can be totally NSFW.)

Birdy-Just remember your data, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS are essentially transceiver's. So if they are on and can't find a signal they destroy battery life. Bluetooth isn't as bad as GPS and WiFi but it will have an affect.

What I do is when I pull up to our house or somewhere I know has WiFi I turn it on and it connects (saved connections). Do the reverse when I leave. I only turn Bluetooth and GPS on when I need them.

How can all these people go from loving Hoiberg to absolutely hating him and never cheering for him?
Hell hath no fury like a fan scorned. Though I will admit that at this point I'm a little ticked at him for interviewing with the magic and probably won't cheer for him wherever he ends up coaching.

It's like being blindsided by a breakup. You get sad, you get mad, and then you date someone else, and maybe after a little while, you decide that ex wasn't so bad.

I certainly don't hate him for following his dream, but he does kind of lose McDreamy status in my mind.

I can't hate him for following his dreams. Hell Kudos to him. He reportedly interviewed with two teams and no one knew. That is a damn miracle in today's media.

That being said the timing is the worst of it all.

With me it's not that our ex-coach is leaving, it's more the timing and how it has been going down. Even though I knew he might (probably) leave to the NBA I thought it would be much later than this and not with so much business left to complete at ISU. I was pretty sure he wanted to to complete something special at ISU but ISU was way more of a second choice to him than I thought. These current NBA openings , IMHO, are not anything greater than what is open every year in the NBA. It's not like a "Hey, Phil, wanta coach Shaq and Kobe in LA" kinda opportunity.

Don't like being a stepping stone for most coaches and when it is the favored son of Ames dumping us it leaves me somewhere between the mad and sad that 55 mentioned.

Pantsys competition is with the guy that asked me on a date when I was in Omaha two weeks ago, not my ex. The ex just bought a house with the new gf in cr. I'm happy for him.

Wondering stuff this morning in the midst of my Michigan induced boredom.

Am I on anyone's ignore list?

How much will my own ignore list grow this week?

If I post without applying my norm "filter" (aka going full Boxster) will I get banned for the first time this week?

If I golf in the Quad Cities Tuesday with my Cyclone club covers displayed will I shrug off the first golfhawk a-hole comment about ISU and Hoiberg or will I drop an f-bombed laced retort and go all scorched earth?
