"Life is mostly attitude and timing." - Jerry Jeff
Technically, America got the last laugh with No. 4.
Not gonna lie, I'm pissed Rodgers isn't playing. I wanted the Bears to get the last laugh with him like they did with Favre.

They're going to pull this out of their ass and few will care it was nearly a disaster.

Former Kernels pitching coach. He once claimed to have smoked pot in every bullpen in the majors.

I'm proud to consider Mike a friend. I can't recall a time he wasn't great to me. We've had some experiences.

He checked in with me after my son was born prematurely. He called during Covid. He was among the first to reach out August 5th when I suffered the same ignominious fate.

Sim sala bim.

The quietest place in Eastern Iowa?

Car dealerships when the Hawks are playing football.

Busy day... until 2:30.

It's awesome outside today.

You've got time before kickoff to come visit me at Cassill Motors and schedule a test drive!

2005 Cap One vs 2019 Holiday: There's a huge gulf between those 2 and whatever bowl meal No. 3c would be.

Cap One was so bad multiple media paid their own money(!) to get something from a concession stand.
I texted @toddbrommelkamp.bsky.social today to see if he had a pic of the Holiday Bowl pregame meal. I remember starting to take a pic and stopping out of respect for the clearly newly runt over roadkill. I didn’t know what to tell the babies except enjoy every sandwich but not this one, tho.

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

News flash for Iowans: The Aurora Borealis (northern lights) visible, at least as far south as central Iowa. Look to the north.

These are not photoshopped—my phone camera did a longer exposure of a few seconds, which makes the colors look brighter than they do with the naked eye.
