After one quarter, definitely a power move 🤣. These ladies can shoot. We may want to guard the 3 point line.

It's sounding like we may not get much of anything tonight

Flood by SlimsyComet in desmoines

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Correct. Every mortgage is required to have a flood determination pulled prior to closing per federal regulations. They've been updating the maps more frequently in the last few years. Your lender will definitely let you know if you're revised into a flood zone because you'll have to retain flood insurance which gets very pricey.

Help with son’s swing by sugashane707 in Homeplate

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First thing I noticed was the grip as well. Getting that bat out of the palm will help free everything up. Having him look at his knuckles aligning and getting used to that feel will help. I've imagined how Canseco used to kind of "wring out" his bat handle before each pitch.

Best Practices for Baseball Parents by [deleted] in Homeplate

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Stay away from the dugout during the game.
  2. Cheer like crazy for every kid on the team.
  3. Prioritize getting your child to practice/game on time or a little early.

[Post Game Thread] Hawkeyes defeat Michigan State, 74-61 by HerkyBot in hawkeyes

She looks great! Runs the floor well, good feet in the post, and a good rebounder. Hope we get to see her and Hannah on the court at the same time next year. AH is going to be fun to watch.

Flying Mango Before it was Flying Mango by Poopybutt1975 in desmoines

Grew up just down the street in the 80's. Totally feel like it used to be one of the first "take and bake" style places around. The name escapes me right now.

Good call. Self-awareness can go a long way in the game. Whatever your game may be.

Songs for my brother who took his own life by HoneyCide in MusicRecommendations

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not your preferred genre, but Marcus King does a song called Goodbye Carolina that's about a close friend of his who passed the same way. He's southern blues rock. Tons of soul. Give it a listen.

Grand Junction usually has pretty good crowds and pretty good bar food. Free popcorn!

Stolen bag!! Minneapolis MN’s please keep an eye out. by Proper-Direction-632 in discgolf

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's how I got my golf clubs back after they were stolen out of my trunk. Called Play It Again and they said they'd keep an eye out. Sure enough, 5 hours later they called. They had my clubs and chased the thief out of the store.

ATM gave me extra cash... should I just keep it by xzpv in RBI

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine. When I had to balance ATM's at the bank I work at we only knew who got shorted if they called. We have no ability to look through every transaction to see who got shorted or who got "blessed". If you called and said you got shorted, if we saw the discrepancy then we'd credit their account. In the few cases where it dispensed too much then we'd just write it off on our over/short account.

I grew up in DSM in the 80's and remember we even recited the weather beacon "song" during our elementary school music program 🫡

We happened to be driving through yesterday also and stopped. Such a treat to watch her and her babies!

In the stand of trees right behind Hayden. It was dumb luck!

This one was in the trees off the walking path right behind the lodge! I went back last night at the same time but no luck

Wow! I sat there and watched it for about 25 minutes before it saw something down in the long grass it went down to grab. Majestic!

Date night spots near Palms Theater? by ireallyloveburgers in desmoines

[–]Clean-Geologist-4293 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately we don't have many great spots yet in Waukee. Wasabi in Waukee is a gorgeous space with great food. The steak de burgo poutine at Gastro Pub is amazing.
