    State your case

    Out in Western Iowa folks are fairly friendly. Some people are friendly here but nothing like down south.

    State your case

    I grew up and still live 500 miles north of the Ozarks. It is nice here, unlimited black dirt from horizon to horizon, have always lived in a river valley in 3 different towns, although there are a lot of towns and cities not in the river valley. Love the hills in the river valley as well as the...

    Get Home Bag

    Expanding on what @SheepDog said... Carrying at least enough cash with you to fuel your tanks twice plus fix four flat tires? Assuming you are 1 tank from home on a normal day, 2 tanks should get you home in really bad conditions. Do you have enough available credit on a credit card to rent a...

    Police Reports (funny, sad, or otherwise)

    @Sentry18 Informative. I enjoy learning more about the other side of the thin blue line. People just don't understand or realize just how fragile that "thin blue line" really is. We had a standoff situation in my small town a couple years ago. There were officers here from agencies up to 60...

    I bought my catalog from WalMart for $10.00. That's the big version. Love it.

    Police Reports (funny, sad, or otherwise)

    A counseling letter? For WHAT? Does anything happen to you as a result of counseling letters? One time I knew a gal who's father was a police officer. He showed me a picture of a kid who had a bad motorcycle accident. The kid had come off his bike, slid a hundred feet down the road or more on...

    What Is Going Around Making People Sick?

    surprised no one has mentioned high-dose vitamin c at the first sign of symptoms. That is what I always do when ever I feel something coming on and I very very rarely get sick. High dose meaning taking it until bowel tolerance... once you've taken too much it'll give you diarrhea. If you're...

    Appliance Hacks!

    I didn't know where to post this, but it is all in the spirit of saving money so I'll post it here. I've owned various refrigerators for a number of years, one fridge that I owned for a long time was a 25cf fridge/freezer combo with top freezer. Then we owned a 30 year old side by side that...

    Doggie Doors

    Funny thread as well. We have a cat door. Put the litter box out on the back porch so we don't have to smell cat crud every time they poop. It's been heaven. Only problem was we had a certain cat that was a stupid ass and she decided to sit there and play with the door. She was batting it back...

    Police Reports (funny, sad, or otherwise)

    12:51 p.m. A Hungry Horse woman got a call from the power company asking why she was using so much electricity. She didn’t think she was using an excessive amount until she walked around her house and found a power cord leading from her place to her neighbor’s home. Seriously...?

    Marriage thread (for MEN)

    @Sentry18 I think an age difference is better in this day and age. I didn't understand why men tended to marry women who were younger than themselves as a general rule other than the beauty part. Then I got married to a woman who's exactly 2 months and 2 days older than I am... and it boils...

    Marriage thread (for MEN)

    He's got some good advice. In my marriage the "and then some" part was finding out that my wife had $100K in college debt about 3 months after we got married.
