Great post. Not bragging here either...so at 65, my net worth is about 2.7 mil. I've never made more than $140K/year and that was my last two years of working. I did the dollar cost averaging with my traditional IRA, Roth, 401K and employee stock purchase program. I did this for many years...

Sorry but college games have no business playing on Fridays. Leave that night for the preps.

We own a 60" John Deere zero turn. Takes me about 2 1/4 hours to do the farm. Love every minute of it...weekly.

I'm a Dave Ramsey advocate. Some advice I've learned and followed along the way: Keep an accurate budget and you'll know exactly what you need to live on. Hire a professional investment counselor. (I have a fantastic Raymond James guy) Spread and diversify your base....stocks, bonds, CDs...

So of course my questions are: Who exactly sets the DR minimums, and, do they change (throughout the years...lowered)?

Well, the day finally came. May 10th, 2024, marked my last day of official fulltime pharmacy work. I don’t particularly like the word “retirement”, instead, I prefer the phrase “re-directing my energies to other endeavors.” When I was wet behind the ears on July 6th, 1982, my first day as a...

What's cool about the DRs (I've been twice) is at the high school level, it's an all-comers meet. No classes per se. The best against the best, 1A - 4A. Qualifying times/distances are tough. The in-season times/distances for most events are significantly lowered/heightened due to this. Good...

So Fry, your opinon on the IGHSAU? Same as the IAHSAA? Not trying to bait here...honestly enjoy your insight on this stuff.

Good points. But again, 48 other states, many with low populations (Nebraska, Wyoming), seemingly have it figured out. Why exactly Iowa bailed 35 years ago seems odd.

I personally vote for Heat Seeker, Ain't no fun, Have a drink on me, thunderstruck

This is a 2nd rendition of the song live. The other is them riding on a truck. This one is better IMO

Fun Fact: Only Iowa and Alaska no longer have boy's prep pole vaulting. 1989 was the last year in Iowa. "Lack of coaching" and "dwindling interest" are often cited. I think it was mainly due to an insurance issue. 48 other states seem to have it figured out. Prep track varies quite a bit...

I have a sundial that might work...

And let's not forget these kids often double or triple up, running the 800, 1600, 3200 in the same meet. And a relay leg somewhere in there to boot.

I ran 800s in highschool. Our track was made up of those hideous red cinders. Sometimes the rain water didn't drain properly and it became a sloppy mess. I could never best 2:12....until...my senior year.... We ran at North Tama that had a unique (at that that) rubberized all weather track...
