    Making ice

    It's a partial screen capture of the Climate Prediction Center's interactive webpage. Basically, it's suggesting we have an above normal chance for above normal temperatures going into December. With a slightly above normal chance for precip.

    The top of the eddy, where the water is the fastest, was hotter than heck for me one summer just north of the Stanton ramp for trout. Yes, I was pulling cranks and was within spitting distance of the shore a lot of the time. But it seemed they were in a very tight spot of fast water near the...

    headlight upgrade

    After rereading my post, what I meant to say is that about 20% of the vehicles have been failing to dim their headlights lately. I have no idea what percentage that is of the jackasses on the road, but I would assume it's not quite 100% of the jackasses on the road, because there's always...

    headlight upgrade

    I have had the great pleasure of quite a few miles on the road after dark lately. LED's are very bright and at least anecdotally around 20% of the jackasses on the road are too lazy to dim their headlights.

    Let's be real here. They only put geographic designations on professional sports teams to get incredible tax breaks from the local goobers. Ravens. Texans, Rams, Rams, Raiders, Raiders, Raiders, Cardinals are just those I can remember offhand moving to make more money. Only when Cleveland...

    Ford F250 - 7.3 vs. 6.7

    I know the feeling about buying used. I've been burned before as well and hate that aspect of it. I now find myself casually back into the used vehicle market to alleviate the vehicle shortage I occasionally have with a pair of teens.

    Auto accidents caused by Deer

    This is correct. I had to give a sworn affidavit once to help settle a lawsuit over a damn simmental bull that just wouldn't stay in the fence after it went through the windshield of a Ford Pinto. I had fixed that fence several times that summer, but that damn bull just kept pushing his way...

    Auto accidents caused by Deer

    Yes, there are lots of open range miles in the Little Missouri National Grasslands areas. Anywhere from the SD border up to and including the Blue Buttes by Keene and public lands north of Charlson. I can't think of any north of Sakakawea off the top of my head, but west and south they are...

    I think if you are going to specifically target those species you will want to hit the river between the dam and Stanton boat ramp. That's the only reach of the river where I consistently was able to catch salmonids, even though I wasn't targeting them. There are a few people that target...

    There's a difference between the concept of wildlife being "held in public trust" than the for-profit, private ownership of livestock. You're suggesting everything that is not privately owned is actually "owned" by the government (which means the taxpayer. What about a tree that is not planted...

    Ford F250 - 7.3 vs. 6.7

    Everyone likes to complain about the previous generations of xxxx. I had a 5.4 and can state with pretty good certainty it was a much better engine than the ones it replaced from the previous generation of Ford engines. Two coils in 120k didn't seem like it was bad to me. Yeah, heard all...

    Personally, I like Cousins. One just doesn't hear a lot of negatives coming out of the locker room on him, unlike the Diggs brothers who seem hell bent on getting Josh Allen fired. The one thing I don't like about Kirk Cousins is that he will, even in a hot streak, eventually be the Kirk...

    Right! Keenum threw more upforgrabsballs than anyone I had ever seen. He had a streak of luck that was nothing short of amazin.

    You're fine. I know an idiot of a Cowboys fan who made a bet with a Packers fan several years ago. He now has the other guy's name on his butt cheek. Sports "fans" are nucking futs.

    Ford F250 - 7.3 vs. 6.7

    You are absolutely correct in that tires are a significant cost of 3/4 ton ownership, and those 10-ply tires are a shitty ride with 70-80 psi. I put the Sumitomo on my 2009 F250 at 125k. I now have 157k and am planning on replacing them next fall at probably around 170k. Thus far they have...

    Note, I have been silently hoping he returns only to have to suffer some crushing defeat in the playoffs.

    He's been saying that from almost day 1 of this injury. Did he have a full or a partial tear? Truth be told, I don't know which is easier to recover from and really don't want to find out by personal experience. Nonetheless, they were talking early on he was getting a surgery that was new and...
