Started my off week strong by assembling the new TV stand for our Sweet 16 weekend.  From box to assembled with just an Allen wrench and Phillips screw driver.

Holy crap.  I need to change my shirt after that as Mrs8 wipes away tears of joy.

So can we talk about the T Mobile Center handy man who "fixed" the protruding floor nail in game one today?

Heart blockage removed and stent put in place.  Won't coach for a week.

Correct.

No way his doctors want him coaching in the NCAA tournament next week right?
I'd bet Tom's farm that he's coaching next Thursday or Fri

LoL

LOL, one of these "farmers" has a FORTY SIX ACRE RANCH.

Lets write a real script for "Farmer wants a wife" KS version. Here are my 4 contestants

Ron - 43 year old NW KS farmer, inherited 3000 acres of dryland farming/ranching land and is an aspiring land baron. Never married because Jessica left in in 2000 and he hasn't recovered.

Jordy - 37 year old flint hills rancher who was incredibly successful in a high pressure career and saved enough money in that career to retire early and buy some land where he was from. Local's love him but also hate that he has more money to buy up land they want.

Zeke - 28 year old Hired man, owns no land and has bounced around the plains working on harvest crews and as a hired man. Most attractive of the 4 but has a couple run ins with the law that will add some drama later in the season.

Kayden - 24 year old from Miami county whose family grows 400 acres of row crops on the edge of JOCO and is waiting for a developer to make the right offer. 5 horses (aunts own them)  and lots of dirt bikes/Polaris's etc.

Kayden also runs john deere equipment that he trades in every three years.

Otherwise pretty damn good, Benji.

Probably more farm thread worthy, but I've been buying handles for all the broken ones in the shop.  Hammers, axes, sledgehammer, post hole diggers.  Even and old adxe.

The last order I added a shepherd hook (aka cane) like we used to sort cattle.

What do they use for deicing?  it couldn't be hot steam/water?  Seems like that would make it worst if below zero temps.
It's basically, uh, antifreeze

Correct
Glycol I think?

'clams my last airport post, promise.  Like the glass enclosed jet ways and the moving walkway.  Got to see my purple bag deplane.

First  experience de icing at MDW before we took off.

My earliest recollection of the term de icing was this tragedy in high school.

What is with our dudes and the what appears to be play charts on their belts?
This could go in the pet peeve thread for me... or Pete Peeve.

The broadcast was absolute trash. Gives me a healthy appreciation for the kstate production folks.
The game action was fuzzy, but that backstop net was in perfect focus.
