    When it comes to gun registration, Canada tried it. Became to expensive and most weren't following the registration, at least in western Canada. Knew several people in western Canada who told me that they refused to register because they felt there was no way they were going to put all of...

    lower end spotting scope recommendations please

    I bought a Wind River (Cabela's brand) about 20 years ago. Spent about $300 and has worked well. Or at least I thought it worked well until my son bought an upper level Leupold, (in the $1200-$1500 range). Big difference looking through the two. Point being, a lower level scope will work fine...

    XFL

    I like FB and to be honest I haven't even seen a game advertised on TV. What network carries games. Add in that it's not like I don't watch much TV and I haven't seen a game.

    Were anyone's ancestors just a bunch of Schlubs..........

    Have some in my family who have gone a long ways back. Interesting ancestors but no nobility. Nobody famous by today's standards. Did have some ancestors who came to this country with very little and did turn the American dream into reality. Worked hard and eventually owned the land they settled...

    What are your thoughts?

    Don't use Title 9 in this discussion in my opinion. When Title 9 was encased it was to insure girls had equal opportunity in sports as boys. When I was in HS the school I attended was like most smaller Class B schools. Boys could play FB, BB, Track and BaB in the summer. Girls had Track and...

    How to slow my troll

    Have a buddy who trolls forward with a 90 and ties a 5-gallon bucket to the back. Drills a couple holes in the bottom to help release water. Ties the rope from the bucket to one of the tie-downs on either stern side. Goes slow, cheap, and slows down to the speed he needs. Want to go slower, use...

    20.1-05.1-02. Discretionary special allocation hunting license authorization

    Now wouldn't that be some interesting ammo to fight PETA? PETA PROMOTES HUNTING OF ANIMALS TO RAISE MONEY TO PAY THEIR STAFF!!!

    Where do you keep your diaphragm call while hunting?

    When I use a diaphragm it's usually in my mouth, ready to use. Using a diaphragm less and less. When not in my mouth it's in a little case designed for such calls and in a convenient pocket.

    anyone heating with coal?

    Somewhat familiar with schools that heat with coal. Large buildings (perhaps like the 3 or 4 you eventually would like to heat.) the school I used to work in had coal heat with boilers (hot water heat.) Was efficient and relatively low-cost. Was also somewhat dirty. Needed smokestacks about 100'...

    Super Bowl food

    Jalapeno poppers on the Traeger along with wings on the same grill. Elk stuffed mushrooms in the oven and some kind of dip my wife is preparing. Snack food for grazing is the plan.

    Fish House insurance, registration, yada yada

    My insurance agent took a picture of the house and wrote specifics, no problem. Also have never had a problem with my agent in any claim I've filed. Can't say the same about an agent who I bought life insurance from. Would like to sue his ass but realize part of the problem was my fault for not...

    Let the buyer beware. NOT

    Very few can purchase a house today without a loan. Lending institutions are going to require some type of insurance that the property they are loaning for is worth the amount they are loaning. Haven't sold or purchased a home for several years and don't know about any disclosure papers but I do...

    State Record Perch???

    I heard the fish was caught from Long Lake. Now the question is which of the about 10 Long Lakes that are in ND. 10 might be a slight exaggeration, for sure there are more than 4 or 5. Since this is about big fish I'm assuming exaggerations are allowed.

    Gee Loomis...

    You have a point. At the same time peach and tranquility has it's place. Why hit a hornet's nest just to see what will happen? I don't lie to my wife. I will answer her questions truthfully, it's not my fault if she doesn't ask the question. It's like when she asked about a gun of her dad's that...

    Gee Loomis...

    Was surprised from my first response of the number who suggested I'd know the difference between a good rod and an every day rod. So I went to the Cabela's website to look the rods up and check variety. Cost isn't necessarily an issue for me, until my wife finds out what I spent, but after...

    Gee Loomis...

    I wonder how many more fish I would catch with a $400 rod versus my $50-$70 rods? Damn it must hurt to slam a G Loomis in the endgate of your pickup.

    Kobe

    Will never know for sure unless they find a mechanical problem. Until you fly into conditions where you can't see your surroundings, without instruments you will be amazed at how quickly you lose your bearings. This pilot was instrument rated so I'm assuming he instantly went to instrument...

    Allen Iverson backpack $500k

    OK, I'm a little slow today. (Today?) saw the title and didn't notice the "k". Thought someone was selling a backpack for $500 and was wondering what made a backpack worth $500. Was thinking that must be a very good backpack (like for hauling out an elk or deer). Sometimes I don't pay much...

    Bismarck Traffic Lights News Story

    Don't live in Bismarck but do go there fairly often. Sometimes it seems like I'm in perfect time with the lights and sometimes not. I you currently curse the lights, imagine the cursing that would be going on without any lights. It's one of the inconveniences we live with.
