  1. First and foremost, I 100% agree with the 'don't go out of state' sentiments - loans are an albatross and shoudl be avoided to the greatest degree possible. No one will care where your nursing degree came from - they will care that you got your CNA and maybe LPN and worked in the nursing field during your entire college career on top of earning your BSN. Source: my wife has her BSN and is now a director of a private clinic. Re: paying for college, I shook the scholarship tree to death and ended up having enough scholarships to pay my entire 5 years of both tuition and rent. That said, I also chose an inexpensive in-state school with a very strong biology program and made it my mission to get into every organization I could to make connections. My wife, on the other hand, had $35,000 in debt. Once I graduated, we buckled down and worked a TON, 7 days a week much of the time, kept living like broke college kids and paid that poo off as quickly as possible. We are now 31 and 33 and have been debt-free since 2008. I can not overstate the importance of minimizing debt and how great it feels to not owe anyone (other than Wells Fargo for our mortgage) a damn penny.
  2. And you always want more an hour later, right?
  3. Probably been said, but the Thief franchise was pretty good up through Deadly Shadows. Haven't played the new one myself but not big on them getting a new voice actor for Garrett.
  4. Schools of forensic pathology... not like they're just leaving corpses out for the fun of it.

    My 2 yr. old dropped our Galaxy Note in the toilet. It was unaffected and works perfectly.
  6. Not sure what to look at in that pic, but they did misspell 'forecast'.
  7. It's like Metroid, but real.
  8. Temps are back up in the high 90s and heat indices in the 100s so I've been hitting the late-afternoon outdoor running hard... There's something very satisfying about running in the heat like this. Losing the water weight and feeling firmer is a great mental 'win'.
  9. Can't say I've ever seen a hyena flop like a pansy before.
  10. Insert tongue-clam joke here.
  11. Baker, Mid America Nazarene, Washburn... somebody on that scouting staff has to be from Kansas.
  12. 27 years old and on the downside? Negative.
  13. Alternating between my Korn, Skrape, and Jim Croce stations on Pandora.
  14. They fought for the Confederacy, thereby earning their 'South cred'. In all seriousness though, southern MO is a lot like the states to its southeast, though Arkansas sort of has its own thing going on.
  15. That might unintentionally be me... I sometimes accidentally rate threads while browsing on my phone and don't care for the mobile version or app.
  16. I would agree if it were a garbage-time interception, but you asolutely can count it because it effectively ended a drive that could have resulted in game-winning points; if they had scored, you'd be adding the drive to your list of scoring drives. And offenses have been going up and down the field to some extent all season - they just didn't get TDs like the Patriots did. The Patriots are arguably the best competition that Carolina has faced all year and this is a reasonable outcome. As for Miami, we would expect Carolina to perform but it's really an unkown after the last 2 week. They certainly wouldn't be the first team to suffer a letdown after riding an emotional high.
  17. I don't believe Carolina has ever defeated Miami in the regular season at all.
  18. To the folks complaining about the defense "not getting off the field on third down", while I agree 100% about the missed tackles and disappearing rush please remember that they had like 7 drives all game, 1 which ended in a punt and two in turnovers. Carolina's offense did pretty much the exact same thing to them except without the turnovers. This is what happens when talented teams featuring both good offenses and good defenses play each other.
  19. Could easily have been another blowout if thenoffense had gotten out of their own way. The defense was absolutely incredible today.
