    Doritos Flavor-Blasted Liquor

    From the release, it "opens with umami and tangy aromas of nacho cheese, moving to the deeper, corn-forward flavors of the chip to finish on a soft salty note”. I've often been snacking on Doritos and thought, "I'd love a smooth-sipping nacho cheese drink."...

    Kid names

    I got this idea from an entertaining Reddit thread... What is the weirdest kid name(s) you have personally witnessed? I'm not talking urban legends (Twins named Lemonjello and Orangejello) or any of Elon Musk's kids' names. I have a few, all from working in an urban school district in...

    Lance Blanks RIP

    Somehow I missed that he died a few days ago, and now his daughter has come out and announced he died by suicide. The guy was not my favorite announcer, but seemed like a quality human and it just goes to show how terrible depression and mental health issues can be...

    Tamin Lipsey-Steals record watch

    So, Lipsey currently has 62 steals, which is 9 off the freshman single season record set by Hunter last year. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if he could beat that? It will be tough without at least a couple of wins in the postseason. He averages about 2 a game, so with 4 games he could get there.

    Biggest year-to-year jump

    I was recently thinking about Lafester Rhodes, as we all do from time to time. We all know about the 54 point explosion against Iowa, but maybe people don't remember how great of a season he had that year, averaging 22.5 PPG and 7 boards per game. Up until his senior season, he averaged about 3...

    Tyrese Haliburton tearing it up!

    Checked my Xfinity sports app, and saw that Hali is out there setting records! Move over Wilt Chamberlain.

    Hail damage (car)

    Our car got quite a bit of hail damage a few weeks ago. It's an oldish car (2015) with just over 100,000 miles on it. At the time, I didn't think it was worth the deductible to get it fixed, but I'm having second thoughts. Anyone else dealt with this and have pros/cons?

    Engineering Degree

    I know there are a lot of engineers here, so I have a question for you. My son is going to be a freshman at Texas Tech this fall, and is very unsure of what he wants to major in. His strengths are definitely in the math/sciences. At Texas Tech (and maybe most universities) the first year or...

    Tyrese Hunter-Freshman Assist Record

    Thought this deserves its own thread. It is AMAZING that this kid just broke Gary Thompkins' freshman assist record. Thompkins was in Johnny Orr's run-n-gun offense, passing to guys named Grayer, Stevens, and Hornacek. The future is bright.

    Fun History-based Timekiller

    History is not my greatest subject, but I am having fun with this game: https://wikitrivia.tomjwatson.com/ It pulls random Wikipedia historical events, and you have to place them correctly on a timeline. Say goodbye to your productivity today.

    Excited to see what the young guys can do next year

    As much as I hate to see the great core of seniors (and Breece) move on, I am excited to see what the youngsters can do in expanded roles next year. Who you got for your new fan favorite? I love seeing Deon Silas run the ball. He's my pick, who's yours?

    Haliburton-LASIK Surgery

    Came across this mostly mundane article: Yahoo Sports: JJ Redick cites Steph Curry after Tyrese Haliburton reveals Lasik surgery. https://sports.yahoo.com/jj-redick-cites-steph-curry-191212463.html But it has a great quote: "He’s currently just 2,711 threes behind Curry." Not sure if it was...

    College choices-Academic

    Here's something I have been wrestling with that I know the smart folks at CF will bring clarity to for me: My son is a HS Jr. and is fortunate to have become a National Merit Finalist. There are a few schools in the country who give full ride scholarships for being a NMF. But, these are...

    Last Chance U: Basketball

    Anyone watching this latest Last Chance U installment? I have only seen the first episode, but think it's pretty compelling. I know that the level of competition is fairly low in the Cali Juco ranks, but it seems like they have some athletic dudes on that team. Small spoiler: You get to see...

    Cannibal sandwich

    This is something I had never heard of as a thing here in the Midwest. Is this something your family has as a holiday treat? https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-lifestyle/wi-authorities-reminding-people-not-to-eat-raw-meat-sandwiches

    Retiring Outside of the U.S.

    I have started seriously considering retiring in a country where my dollars go much further and where healthcare is excellent and not out of control cost-wise. Running some numbers through a retirement calculator shows that I might be able to retire much earlier overseas as well. I am only 47...
