    Tornado Warning UNL

    Does anyone ever remember when events, games, and early release because of issuing a tornado watch? I get it, last week sucked. But with the issuing of the tornado watch for tonight I'm seeing events and games get canceled. Same thing last Thursday, my son's middle school canceled...

    Anyone home school or know of someone who home schools? (Year 1 update)

    Year 1 update. We, by we, I mean maily my wife decided to and I followed along with homeschool our 6-year old. At first, I was extremely relunctant thinking it would be a massive headache and failure. In the end, it was a great decision for our family. We did the Classical Conversations...

    Yard Care

    I read on some golf maintenance forum they go up to 2lb/1k sq ft. I know grass can withstand a lot, especially if it is granular and not liquid. I'd be more worried about trees than the grass. I have a maple tree that has shown signs of iron poisioning when I double the Milorganite rate in...

    POLL Are you smarter than a 6 year old?

    Last week my 6 year old yelled, "my poop is as long arm my arm." I disagreed, but had to see anyways. Sure as hell, it was as long as his arm.

    Post-Spring Game Feelings

    Raiola has an extremely good head on his shoulders and is a big follower of Jesus. From what I've heard and seen of him, he's what you want as a leader of this team. I've seen him at our church a couple of times.

    Official 2024 Nebraska Cardiac Beaver Slayers Baseball Thread (25-13)

    Cockeye pitchers and catchers might be the worst group of players I've ever seen playing catch, especially long toss. We missed memo of a delayed start so was in RF berm for them playing catch. My boys got 2 balls from overthrows, another dad and his 2 boys got 3, and 2 or 3 other kids got one.

    Tornado Warning UNL

    Tornado originally touched down a mile north of us in NW Lincoln and we had zero clue. Kids and wife were downstairs and I was out collecting hail. After it cleared took boys out to see it. First time they've seen a tornado.

    Hot Takes Thread

    His average Rushes per carry were exaggerated by his long runs. I remember seeing a stat that LenDale had better rushing production per carry than Reggie. It was Reggie's long runs that made his stats look better. Arkansas 8 for 125 with a long of 76 = 15.6 ypc ave. Without that one long he...

    Yard Care

    Eat a Sam's Club pack of tuna and place them around the yard to get your timing right. If you have a zone with a sloped yard, I like to break up the watering into 2 waterings, same in the summer months.

    TPB X thread

    Fucking idiot. He's split into two if that winch cable comes undone. It's seen way too many close calls offroading with winch cables.

    TPB X thread

    I was in high school towards the end of the no cell phone era late 90s. Simply the best times having to preplan house, field, or dirt road parties, cruise around for hours and hang out at the various spots around the square to think of something to do. If you were too late downtown you missed...

    Tech guys, need help

    Some say it might interfere with it, but I've had it setup with my wifi router and a Google Mesh for 4 years now. I've unplugged both to test and saw zero speed difference.

    Ice cream that doesn't melt...

    Saw a video today a lady baked ice sandwiches and bars and only Klondike brand melted, the other brands didn't. So I'm running an experiment, my mom make and ice cream cake desert. I'm leaving it sit outside and seeing how long before it melts or loses it's shape. Around 8:30 pm (hour and half...

    Tech guys, need help

    In short instead of one single wifi router, a mesh system has multiple access hubs which, when overlapped/meshed together it broadcasts the wifi signal further. Place one at your modem and others near where you want signal. Most mesh systems come with three hubs. I have a Google Mesh system for...
