    ***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

    Putting a tray of ice cubes in your BVDs works better than ceiling fans, but doesn't address the problem of the difference in temps between the upper and lower levels

    ***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

    If you have forced air heating, leave the furnace fan running 24/7. If the registers are balanced properly, this action should help even the temp throughout the house--may not completely solve the issue but will certainly help. I have geothermal which is slower to correct temperature...

    ***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

    Fortunate to get 1.15 rain (with a WU prediction of .03) ahead of the predicted heat event, Should be beneficial in that crops/plants can draw moisture from a deeper/cooler area of their root system where the fluctuations in temps will be more moderate than at the surface. Above 85 degrees...

    ***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

    Two goals for the rest of the day: Finish mowing my acreage so I can park the mower for a couple weeks and put the window air conditioner in the shop so I can hide from the wife next week in comfort.

    Your Biggest "Coincidence"

    Back in the day, when Bo Derek was at the height of her popularity, I spent a long day on the farm doing spring tillage--one of several days in a row as we farmed enough ground to push our machinery capabilities to their limits. At the end of the day, I showered, grabbed a quick bite for...

    Favorite part of ISU campus

    Another "gramps" story: My favorite part of campus was a room on 3rd floor Storms tower. Yes we were somewhat coed back then (early 70's), first three floors girls, balance of Storms guys. She had a room to herself, and I had a key to her room. I think I spent more nights in her room than...

    ISU MBB Twitter

    Would be hard to account for recruiting advantages some schools may have, and fairly ranking strength of schedules of each school, but would be interesting to know how much returning production translates to win percentage

    Big XII options for sanctioning Texas Tech

    "Sorsby needs to develop", "the raw talent is there"--couldn't that be true for the top 10 -20 qb;s in college ball? Has the pub given him more cred than he deserves?

    Farmland Sale Question

    Don't know any of the extenuating circumstances (age, financial situation, etc.) but just because she received an offer doesn't require her to sell. Another option would be to terminate the current lease and rent to the adjacent neighbor after exploring his interest. You don't need to disclose...

    Sorsby, Campbell surrender so fast!!!

    Really the only winners here were Yormark and the Big 12 in their ability to enforce the standards of the conference and bring this to a close. I've never been one to wish ill will on another, but Sorsby wasn't really punished for his actions, not having to forfeit his NIL. My hope is that...

    26-27 Basketball schedule

    Did I miss the thread or is this it? I've been waiting to see everybody's thoughts. Personally even though the dates and times haven't been disclosed I don't think we have much to be disappointed in. Home and home with KU. Arizona and BYU at home. Would have liked Houston twice and Tech not...

    Yeah, and the rules on murder were made long before half the nation adopted a "right to carry" option
