    80 degrees, no wind -- WTF am I doing here??

    I'm sitting here, staring at a pair of computer screens. Papers all over my desk. Projects in various stages of completion. And all I can think about is how freaking pointless this all is. Get up at 5 a.m., shower, make breakfast, get the kids ready, kiss the wife, go to work, sit on my ass...

    Damn Boat Motors

    Ok, backstory: Bought a used Johnson 50 from a feller in Minnesota. Great guy. Honest. Helped me install it and hook everything up. Ran great. Brought it home and the trouble started. Changed fuel line. Replaced spark plugs. It runs a bit better, but not much. Weird thing is I can get it to...

    Super Simple Meat Marinade

    I know there are a bajillion (with a J) recipes out there for wild game, so consider this a bajillion-and-one. Only reason I thought of it was because I mixed some up this morning with a batch of gadwall and teal. Plan on wrapping them in bacon and grilling this evening. Wife and kiddo love it...

    Reporter left with PTSD after firing AR

    What a pathetic, limp-wristed excuse of a human being. I bet he still wets the bed and sleeps with a teddy bear, too. ;:;banghead...

    Wife broke land speed birth record

    Well, the time came that at 4 a.m. on June 3 when my very pregnant wife elbowed me in the ribs and told me to get up and call the hospital. She was dripping wet and gasping for breath. I was informed her contractions started at 3:30 and she hopped in the shower hoping they would abate. Well...

    This a good deal on a Hummingbird?

    Just popped up in my email. Qualifies for free shipping, too. I have a birthday coming up, so thought this might be a good upgrade for one of the 1990s Eagle depth finders I have in the boat...

    Boat Fishing the Red near Fargo

    I've fished out of a boat in Grand Forks and didn't have much worry about driving full throttle down the middle. But the Red is a bit less mightier near Fargo, and seems pretty low at the moment. With my wife ready to unleash kiddo No. 2 any day now, I'm relegated to fishing much, much closer to...

    Who has tackled their electrical mess?

    I'm thinking of tackling the mess under my console. There are wires there that I know don't do anything, and I'd really like to get things less crazy looking. Anyone attempted this? Any tricks or advice? I really want to install a USB charger, so by figuring out what's useless, I should be...

    Screw You, Karma!

    Call it Karma. Call it Murphy's Law. Call it plain bad luck. But I FINALLY have a motor on my boat that works, and it's finally seaworthy after years of neglect, and my kid is old enough to go fishing and we're far enough out from the due date that my wife isn't going to suddenly go into labor...

    Thanks for the topsoil!

    My yard was looking pretty dingy, but thanks to the fresh layer of dark, black topsoil all I need is a good shot of rain and it'll be green as Trump's bank account! Seriously though...Dust Bowl 2016 has commenced in Fargo. I actually saw black dirt blowing across the road like drifting snow in...

    MN Do Nothing Right strike again; Poacher caught red handed let go

    Holy moly...I'm laughing because I'm pretty sure this is something I learned by watching late-night crime dramas... you know "you need a warrant for that." Illegal search and seizure...tsk, tsk, tsk. Dude caught red handed shooting a deer with a rifle in a shotgun zone gets off Scott Free...

    Good Deal On Starting Battery

    Swung through Menards in Moorhead and they had this little number on sale for $50 after a $10 mail-in-rebate. They were on display right by the registers. Sale lasts through April 14, I believe. I'm heading back to pick one up tonight so I can verify, if anyone is interested.

    Troubleshooting Control Box Installation

    I might be getting a bit ahead of myself, but here goes: I finally found a motor to replace the burnt up Mercury on the Alumacraft my grandfather gave me after he moved into assisted living. I'll be replacing it with a 1997 Johnson 50hp outboard. The only issue is that it's coming out of a bass...

    NDSU Lacrosse $40K in debt

    During supper last night, the doorbell rang. I was greeted by a couple NDSU guys asking for donations. Now, they had no idea I was a staunch UND supporter and Bison loather, but I heard them out. In all honestly, I felt bad for the kids. I know asking for money is difficult, and going...

    Feel That? Another Lead Ammo Ban attempt is in the wind...

    Mark my words: With this report, the anti hunters are going to hit lead HARD in the near future. Next it'll be upland game, then big game, and then you won't even be able to use lead shot at the trap range because some poor sparrows will invent shot in their gizzards...
