    Annoying commercials

    Not that many Christmas themed this year, I think target and Lexus have finally received enough death threats. But this google nexus phone commercial may have finally broke me. Features an annoying holiday themed song, sung by someone with an ugly, nails on a chalkboard, singing voice. Really...

    new North Dakota plates

    Why desert brown? Less than 1/8th of the state has this background. Needed more green and less hazy sunset. Also the flimsiness makes it seem cheap.

    Love Ice Fishing or Meh?

    If it wasn't for the fact that there is nothing to do during the three worst months in North Dakota, I would probably never bother. Other than a lack of bugs, and the ability to watch football and sit inside a warm camper while pretending to fish. There is no real advantage ice fishing has over...

    Vikings game

    I blame zimmer, I think he wets himself whenever they play nationally televised games. Just like Frazier if the plan isn't working from the start, he is either too stubborn, or too slow to change. Then once the games gets out of hand, and the Vikings are down by three possessions, he simply...

    Winter Vacations

    Bahamas, generally safe, white beaches, typically in the 80s, had good luck fly fishing and trolling around that time. If you plan it right, you can catch the 500.

    The whole posted / unposted land thing in ND should die (includes Poll)

    Why not limit tags to land owners and their direct families only? Or if a peasant wants to hunt, a land owner has to sponsor them before sending in the app. The land owner can then ask for a fee before sponsoring. Sponsoring doesn't guarantee access, of course. That requires a couple more bucks.

    2015 Deer Rifle Season reports, pics, bloopers, etc.

    Tinted glasses and shooting into the wind cost my chance. I am really growing to hate this lousy sport. You walk 12 miles, into a stiff wind, perch on top of a hill, only to watch the deer take off a quarter mile in front of you. Which means before I can find them in the scope, they are a half...

    Bass Pro Shops Consider Purchase of Cabela's

    Safe to assume the east grand forks cabelas will be shutting its doors. Along with any cabelas not selling ranger boats, or selling ranger boats close to a bass pro. Cabelas has gotten so overpriced and under stocked I rarely ever stop at the Rogers cabelas when driving to the cities. But I'll...

    When do you think we will have safe ice?

    Last weekend my buddy's humminbird claimed audobon was 46, and the water was too cold to touch. Then driving between valley city and Jamestown last night, the ditches were white. I'm thinking end of the month at the latest. Might start seeing some ice covered ponds as early as this weekend.

    Internet/Land Line Phone?

    I would just pay bek, the other options will still cost the same plus the speed, latency, and caps makes the their services nearly unusable. Satellite should only be considered as a last resort, and all it will take is one bill with $500 worth of overage charges before you abandon cellular.

    Asking for help, then being a prick

    I once tried to help some kid out of a snow bank. After about 20 minutes of removing the hardest, heaviest snow I've ever had to lift, the kid noticed scratches on his oil burning Pontiac. Then he threatened to sue me. So every time I see some kid stuck in the snow in that same spot, I drive by...

    Fanduel

    Sounds like a Ponzi scheme. What happens when the rate of new subscribers decreases, or the "weekend warriors" get tired of being hassled and leave? Second, where are they getting the millions for the prize pools, plus paying for all the ad time on radio, tv and product placement? I'm thinking...

    If anyone is bored!!

    Did it once when I was fine tuning a side scan depth finder I just installed. I parked as far over as possible and was never gone for more than two minutes at a time. No one else was on the lake and the corp still had the dock out.

    Jamestown gun range going byebye

    Problem with jamestowns the couple years I lived there, it was flooded 90% of the time, same with Wilton's. Bismarcks is fine except there is at least 5 or 6 people regardless of time of day or weather, and always a guy or two that wants to reset his targets every 2 minutes, quite annoying when...

    Motor trouble

    Well, I dug into it again this morning and removed the starter. Behind it was covered in 2 stroke oil and gasoline. Turns out one of the bleed system lines broke and sprayed a good amount. At this point I don't know if I should be relieved it didn't catch fire? So I clean up the starter, take a...

    Motor trouble

    Two weeks ago, the Mercury runs fine at wot and I was able to restart it multiple times without issue. Today I get on the water and it doesn't turn over. Take the cover off the flywheel and the starter motor is only turning the flywheel 10 to 25 degrees. So I keep bumping it, same result...

    Mandan / Morton co. Ban whats already illegal?

    Gotta love the nanny state the northeastern lawyers started. Any thing that you can think of and there is a large, way too vocal group that that wants it banned. And what is sad, these groups of kill joys always have someone on a commission, or governing board, that is able to pass these no fun...

    vikes vs. broncos

    Blair Walsh cost them the game, and Peyton manning has dropped off a lot. Neither team is making a SB run in their current conditions. Other than that bookies had a great week.

    Mild winter ?

    Brown Christmas and 80s for March this year, as long as greatest El Niño ever holds up, looking like a potential bust at this point. Not that I despise winter, I just wish it would stay within its actual season. A frozen lake in may is something I hope to never see again.
