    Any pilots on here?

    If you have a buddy or 2 or 3 it's not a bad idea to co-own an airplane. As long as you get along and can work together. Annual inspections generally cost about the same whether you put 5 hours on the plane or 300. It's nice to spread out those annual fixed costs. If you have the right group...

    Any pilots on here?

    Agree with all of this. Owners of airplanes generally know what they are worth. If it sounds really cheap, it probably won't be in the long run. Annual maintenance is a must and there is nothing inexpensive with an airplane. That being said, there is something so relaxing and fun about flying...

    Long Range Shooting School

    I'm thinking it would be interesting and probably a fun 3 days. Don't know if the cost is high or not, one of those deals where you will know the value after it's done. My concern is I haven't made up my mind on whether i agreed with shooting game at extreme ranges. I miss by a an inch or two...

    Fishing in Blue Plater waters alert.

    Everybody has an idea of what is best for the fish. Most are not supported by biological data. Fish are like all other wildlife, if you have enough habitat (water) and food (baitfish), fisherman with current rules and limits will do quite well. Over fishing on the smaller bodies of water is...

    Drywall Bismarck/Mandan Area

    That's one of the skills of being a good dry-waller. When they are done, most of the drywall is on the walls instead of on them and the floor.

    Drywall Bismarck/Mandan Area

    Good dry-wallers do make it look easy. Having the proper tools helps and enough experience to know the little tricks of the trade. What's not easy is the hard work. Carrying the mud. spreading it with constant arm movement adds up at the end of the day The good ones just seem to have a rhythm...

    SB 2225 Text - Trespass Bill

    I would prefer castrating the jackasses who keep causing this issue to come up. There are a lot of landowners that don't mind people hunting on their land until someone abuses the privilege. Then we all get lumped into the group of 'hunters have no respect." I have never been in an argument...

    A Dog's Purpose

    I have to chuckle at what a bunch of tough guys we are. Don't want to go to a movie because we might shed a tear at the thought of a dog, "who we don't know anything about," might end up in doggie heaven. The truth is that is how easy we become attach to these animals. When one that we know...

    A Dog's Purpose

    Supposedly, but I watched for that and I could not find anything that remotely made me think that this dog was ever mistreated. - - - Updated - - - Yeah, there were things pretty close to these purposes. - - - Updated - - - Not going to lie, in the movie as in life, when dogs reach a...

    A Dog's Purpose

    On a lighter note, if you enjoy the occasional movie I suggest this one. I suspect most everyone on this site has some love of dogs as they go hand in hand with outdoor activities. I thought this movie was very truthful in how dogs react with humans and how dogs frequently act like us. It was a...

    Harvey Wildlife Club Predator Tournament - Northerns and Coyotes

    Not a tournament fisherman or hunter but I do like the concept of this. Sounds like fun.

    Recipe: Fried Crappie Cakes

    Come on guys, knock this off. Do you have any idea what you are doing to my waistline? That and I've been such a poor fisherman this winter that I'd be better off to just go buy some fish.

    Airfryer and Fish

    There is also a recent recipe for crappie cakes that sound delicious. Why would't it also work for these? Well, other than the suggestion for cakes was to cook on the ice. I guess in that case you need to bring a generator as well. That's for those of us who don't have fancy wheeled houses with...

    Cenex gas pump

    I've noticed that not only are some pumps slow, some I've used constantly want to shut off even at the lowest automatic shut off. Pain in the ass to have to hold in cold weather. My vehicle isn't old enough or the correct model of GM where the vents had a problem plugging. That and it isn't a...

    Need a new auger. Ion or K-Drill?

    Love my ION but don't have a K-drill to compare against. If you don't have a 1/2 inch drill you will need to add that to the cost of the K-drill. If possible it would be nice to find someone who has both so you could try them and make your own decision. I bought my ION before the K-drill came...

    Legislation I can support

    Thank you. You are now starting to talk about what the local taxpayers may do and not what someone someplace else in the state making your decisions. You are also siting some reasons where perhaps it is time for some new blood on the board. I realize that not every one wants to serve in that...

    Legislation I can support

    Eye, I'm really not trying to start an argument with you because you continue to support my position. $53k sounds like a lot of money but I don't know what your current school is like. I don't know whether you need an upgrade or a completely new building. I don't know if your current school...

    Ground & Formed Bacon - Loaves and Cased

    Do you mind releasing what you used for seasoning to make your bacon? That looks like an excellent addition to a breakfast and something different than sausage.

    Legislation I can support

    Once again, I have no idea whether a $16 million building fund is appropriate for your district. I have known districts that built up their building fund for a known expense that was coming in the future. My point will always be I shouldn't be telling the taxpayers in your district what is best...

    Legislation I can support

    We have a difference of opinion of which neither of us is going to change the mind of the other it would seem. State funding does not currently and never has paid for building bond issues Property taxes are the only means of paying for building projects. Every school at some point is going to...
