    ? Jet ski accident strawberry lake ?

    My jet-ski has a throttle like a snowmobile. Release the thumb and the machine idles down. It also has a kill switch which is designed to be hooked to the driver and shuts the motor off completely when the driver falls off. This is a tragedy and all the blame can be placed by someone and I'd...

    There's Never Enough

    SinceI am retired and have been through most of the concerns many of you have perhaps I can add some thoughts. 1) make sure your family time is quality time more than quantity. There will never be enough. 2) Kids will have their own activities. Enjoy those activities with them, that counts as...

    The Farm Bill

    That is true, although in this case I don't think it's the farmer causing the argument. The only thing the farmer wants out of the farm bill is to know how the bill affects them. Yes, they do get some subsidies such as crop insurance and a couple other payments dependent on the cripts they raise...

    The Farm Bill

    I'm no expert but if I remember correctly, the CRP program was designed as a way to take marginal land out of production to lessen the supply of some grains. That would then, theoretically, increase the price of wheat (using ND as an example). Increasing the price of wheat would then lessen the...

    First summer holiday in the books....

    The advantage of being retired is that it really doesn't matter what day a holiday falls on. Every day is like Sat. Keep at it, some day you will also have that option.

    Have a good friend to advised me many years ago. "The color of the jig doesn't matter as long as it's white."

    Replica walleye mount

    Replicas may not be perfect but they do serve a purpose. The fish lives for someone else to catch and the fisherman gets a fish on the wall to remind him/her of the catch. Not a bad deal even if do look to perfect and unrealistic.

    Devils Lake - what lies ahead?

    Currently, you can just about write off Irvine and Alice for everything but winter as at this time no summer access that I know of. Some landowner is missing the boat by not providing for summer access to Irvine and charging an boat-launch fee.

    Trespasser~

    I was amazed that anyone carries a rag big enough to clean up that much paint. Well, maybe I do if I include the roll of TP that I most always carry. Don't think that would be very efficient for cleaning paint.

    MSA, need snake ID If possible

    Had never heard of a red-bellied snake until a couple weeks ago. Was walking along a trail in a pasture and found a small dead snake. Was very thin and about 6-8 inches long. Picked it up and it had a brownish back and a very red belly, hence the name. Had no idea what it was until I looked up...

    Royal Wedding

    Actually a wedding that was very tasteful in my opinion. Didn't set any alarm to get up but that is my normal wakeup time and it was on so I watched for awhile. I didn't get nearly as excited as most of the American broadcasters, some were to the point of childish in their gushing and...

    Gasoline Price?????

    Or I suppose, since gas stations are making such a great profit we could all go buy a station and get rich ourselves.

    Rain

    Pretty sure everyone in ND would welcome rain. 10" might be a little to much but we do need rain.

    Post hole diggerAny

    That's cruel to offer one of those. Whoever created this type of digger must've also invented the flat screwdriver.

    Shooting reduced recoil 30-06

    A lot of shooting is a great idea for kids (as well as adults). Another choice is a .22. If you have a scoped .22 kids get used to shooting with a scope as well as proper trigger pull and everything else that goes with being a good marksman. Proper technique or skills is the same with a plinker...

    Players Championship

    When Tiger was in his prime he was fun to watch. Deadly with his shotmaking and when he had a lead he could really turn on the killer instinct. Unfortunately, his off the course behavior caught up with him, that and back injuries have taken there toll on his game. Jack and Arnie were great for...

    Justice?

    Pretty sure we can all agree with what this guy deserves. The problem is that I'm also pretty sure none of us would actually do what he deserves as that would reduce us to his level. Don't understand how serving 18 years equates to serving his full 20 year sentence. Also question why he got out...

    Favorite meal of the day

    damned auto-spell. The truth is you're pretty close to the truth with the description of oatmea and bowel vs. bowl. - - - Updated - - - And a side of sausage to the hash browns topped with biscuits and gravy and eggs over easy.

    Favorite meal of the day

    Only am allowed to eat chicken-fried steak when there is little chance my wife will find out what I ate.
