I hope they dont plan to keep him as a center, at that size the guy is a 4 or even maybe a 3 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 21:04:46 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/sports/local/Hawkeyes-Add-Another-Basketball-Recruit-120729674.html#IDComment146294806 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/One-Killed-When-Waterloo-Teen-Crashes-Stolen-Car-In-Altoona-119408039.html#IDComment140772371 Soup DaJour? What a shame this idiot wasn't the one that died, I'm guessing it would've been 1 less dirtbag for society to pay for Thu, 7 Apr 2011 16:41:15 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/One-Killed-When-Waterloo-Teen-Crashes-Stolen-Car-In-Altoona-119408039.html#IDComment140772371 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Boone-County-Deputy-Recovering-After-Cruiser-Flips-During-Chase-119322324.html#IDComment140547663 Congrats to the driver of the General Lee Wed, 6 Apr 2011 19:29:42 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Boone-County-Deputy-Recovering-After-Cruiser-Flips-During-Chase-119322324.html#IDComment140547663 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Pet-Owner-Abandons-Vet-Bill-and-Puppy-at-Local-Clinic-118547024.html#IDComment137236746 I have nothing bad to say against this particular Vet, since I haven't ever been there or know any of the vet's, but in general (price wise) this is why I shopped small town clinics before I went anywhere. I live in Cedar Rapids and drive to Center Point to the vet there. For the price it would cost me to get just yearly shots for my 2 dogs in CR, I could drive back and forth 20 times and pay for the shots in Center Point. Also, not just because of the much much smaller prices, the staff there is excellent.

High school students have it beaten into their brains that they NEED to go to college when a vast majority have no idea what they want to do or the real life implications of the extremely uninformed decisions they make their senior year. The first high school guidance counselor to suggest anything other than college would probably be fired on the spot.

You may make less on paper, but you can make good use of the hundreds of $ your not spending monthly in student loan payments for 20 years - that tipping point is coming quickly Wed, 23 Mar 2011 18:50:14 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Iowa-Regents-Approve-University-Tuition-Increases--118511439.html#IDComment137061598 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Iowa-City-Employee-Was-Lookout-For-Ecumenical-Towers-Shooter-Police-Say-117950444.html#IDComment134899140 that lady looks like a cast member from night of the living dead Mon, 14 Mar 2011 19:38:21 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Iowa-City-Employee-Was-Lookout-For-Ecumenical-Towers-Shooter-Police-Say-117950444.html#IDComment134899140 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Cocaine-Found-After-Highway-20-Traffic-Stop-117935564.html#IDComment134866635 Banging 7 gram rocks Mon, 14 Mar 2011 16:59:40 +0000 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Cocaine-Found-After-Highway-20-Traffic-Stop-117935564.html#IDComment134866635 http://www.kcrg.com/news/local/Swastikas-Spray-painted-in-Northwest-Cedar-Rapids-117916784.html#IDComment134821074 To whoever did this; Great job moron, you didn't even get the symbol right.

If this kid would've killed someone in your family you would agree.

Bet the parents of the kid that died would disagree with that one. I feel that if your pulled over and there just happens to be an emtpy liquor bottle the police should be allowed to dig a bit deeper, maybe not searching your car but a sobriety test for the driver that is operating a 2000 pound weapon. $100 says the Marion cops would've "unreasonably" searched for something and most likely saved a kids life.
