    Slab, Crawl-Space, or Basement

    Depends on where you live and the water table. Where I am at, pretty much all basements are a heavy rain and a power outage/sump pump failure away from a disaster.

    Slab, Crawl-Space, or Basement

    If I did a basement, it would be 3 sided built into a hill or man up and pay for fill. The only basements I know that haven't had water problems are those types. Everybody else I know has had water problems at some point.

    Advice needed on trolling motor battery

    http://www.runnings.com/battery-marine/durastart-marine-deep-cycle-battery-12v-27dc-5.htm This one has a lot of reserve capacity for the money. The sell them at Home of Economy and a handful of other places as well. 182 minutes of reserve capacity for 85 bucks is darn good.

    Brexit

    I never said it sucked. I will own some one day. If you bought it 3 years ago and wanted to sell it today it would suck real bad, though.

    Brexit

    If you bought some ag land 2-3 years ago, it wouldn't look good. I've seen no sales happen lately due to people not willing to take the top bid at 60% of what the same stuff was selling for at the peak of commodity prices. Diversification is your friend. Own some real estate, quality...

    Yeti

    My main concern would be RTIC using my pre-order money to fund their defense attorneys from the lawsuit Yeti slapped them with over design. Especially if they go tits up or get nailed with a cease and desist before I get my cooler. - - - Updated - - - I just went to RTIC and hit "order" on...

    UND's new logo

    I'm guessing the company came up with more than one and left the final choice to UND folk.

    Super Simple Meat Marinade

    Been there! - - - Updated - - - I have been a MUCH happier man since I went the way of the dry rub buffalo. Similar zing with 95% less latent pain.

    Super Simple Meat Marinade

    The hot food that is the worst for me is a giant plate of hot buffalo wings. I love the front part of our relationship, but saying goodbye is a real pain. Most other hot stuff isn't horrible on this 35 year old chassis. My marinades often consist of a conglomeration of whatever is in the...

    Shovel Handles

    I had to buy a new chainsaw after the straight line winds leveled 4 of my trees on Friday. I bought a little Husqvarna. It works well. How about I hijack the thread the Tool started and change it into a chainsaw thread?

    Yard blower

    I used the heck out of a Stihl handheld when I had an asphalt sealcoating business. It worked and ran very well for the light to medium duty cleaning. If you want to really move snow and other heavier debris, look a Billy Goat push blower(I had one with a 12 or 13hp Honda). No stress on your...

    Weed wackers???

    Weed whacking with shorts. Never thought that was a good idea. Now I know for sure it is not. I got a Worx GT electric that works good for my smaller, in town application. I think it would be too wimpy for clearing heavy stuff for your hunting areas, though.

    Oregon couple turns table on game and fish

    If I had the time that GST, Plainsman, and Fish spent arguing about absolute hogwash I could build 371,234 beaver dams and then revisit them and blow them up with tannerite. That sounds fun and all, but I would rather spend it with my family or catching fish.

    Reporter left with PTSD after firing AR

    I have PTSD from getting beaten up by the upper class men when I was in 8th grade. Where do I collect my disability check and go fishing every day?

    Snapping turtle

    If you have a nice snapper or a nice beaver, I wouldn't complain.

    ND zebra mussels

    Here's a 7 pounder from the Mauvais Coulee bridge from last year. I caught my first one 25 years ago at the HWY 20 bridge. Caught a 4 pounder ice fishing in Mission bay. - - - Updated - - - Also, the suckers are thick at times up by Garske in the spring. That runs into Dry Lake and then...

    ND zebra mussels

    There are lots of suckers in Devils Lake. They have been there for decades. Carp was and still is a concern.
