    Deer hunting success

    I'm a dolt. I totally missed that in the article. 41% is incredible. To put it in perspective, I think that's even higher than rifle success for the entire state of MN.

    Whacha doing

    See my folks. Dad's birthday is this weekend. We were supposed to meet them at their cabin, but MN's mandatory stay-in-place put the keebosh on that.

    Deer hunting success

    I think most buck hunters are a lot picker now then they were 10 years ago. It's more difficult to get a tag, so when they do, they're holding out. Sometimes it pays off, other times it doesn't. I was fortunate in the past two years I shot what I felt were respectable bucks on opening day on...

    Little known gotcha's in life

    Amen, except for the stepping foot into a bank thing. I like/d bringing the kiddos there because they always had fresh cookies. Had my son work on his addition for adding money to his savings account, and then we'd split a cookie. Plus the tellers were always friendly. I dig mobile...

    Fargo, West Fargo to issue 'stay at home' directive

    Holy crap, chill the F out guys -- nothing was said. The press release grossly exaggerated what was said (either that, or the Gov. got on the horn ASAP and told his cronies they best step in line). There's no stay at home orders in Fargo. If you watched the briefing, the city owes you 30...

    Local ND Economy News

    That check is going right into my savings account. I get they want us to spend money a stimulate the economy, but if shit hits the fan I have a mortgage and food on the table that comes first.

    Tigerking!

    We got through two episodes last night. Crazy is an understatement. And it's pretty much to a T! They interview several "big cat people" and each one is just as crazy as the next. Doc with his polygamist "interns" and cultist lifestyle. The PETA bitch and her free slave labor system (er...

    Social distancing beers

    Gotta say, thought Naturdays would suck. But they're not all that sucky. Kinda nice, actually. Orange Bud, not so much. But I've had a few fruit-hinted beers, and most have been relatively decent. Surly has a Grapefruit ale out right now that's delish.

    The GOOD things & changes you're seeing in this mess?

    Weirdly enough, I'm seeing more of my neighbors now than ever. It's like this weird combination of everything shutting down, cabin fever, and end-of-winter/almost-spring stuff. People are plain ANTSY. I bet not 20 minutes go by without someone walking, biking, jogging, roller blading or...

    Corona Virus....How Long?

    Except that hasn't been proven. There's a great article in the Strib interviewing the former state epidemiologist regarding the pandemic. He says that closing schools long-term will do more harm than good. He even shows the difference between Singapore and Hong Kong, one of which closed schools...

    Corona Virus....How Long?

    What irks me is right now we've been dealing with this for several weeks in the US, and less regionally/locally. The rest of the world much longer. The powers that be have had time to research, discuss and plan, and yet we still seem to be flying by the set of or pants. Knee-jerk-reaction...

    New run on guns and ammo?

    The last time this happened, it was because of the president elected and panic buying. Now it's happening because, even in the far recesses of our mind, there's that little whisper: What if. And it's not because of some politician banning stuff. It's because despite your best efforts to...

    Mortgage Rates-Refinance?

    That's where we're working with now. Just finished the paperwork last night, but it was 2.75 for a 20. Where's people finding 2.5 for a 15 without their rates changing? We went from a 30 at 4% to a 20 at 2.75% and our payment went up $60/month. - - - Updated - - - I should say we finished the...

    I've worked professionally for outdoor industry mags, and now freelance. Here's what they're looking for: 1) Clean, clear, concise copy: If you're a no-name with no following in the outdoor world, putting your best foot forward means making sure your copy is clear, clean and concise. Run-on...

    No Drink January

    I've never been much of a "never, always, black-and-white" kind of person. Sure, there's exceptions to the rule. But by and large, I've tried to live by my Grandpa Ray's motto: Everything in moderation. Guy, you've obviously seen some pretty significant changes and personal growth milestones...

    Top 5 Flood this Spring?

    Got my flood insurance a month ago. I'm about two blocks from the Red, but I'm also some of the highest elevation in Fargo. No wet basements in 97 or 09. I'm prepared, but not all that worried. The schmucks in south Fargo are in trouble, though. Especially everyone building in the 100-year...

    35 Trespassing Violations in 2019

    You forget that the pro trespass law crowd quickly pivots to say this has nothing to do with hunting; that what they experience in the fall is but a mere whisper to the yearlong anguish they face. Clearly, there must but thousands, nay, TENS of thousands of violations outside the hunting...

    35 Trespassing Violations in 2019

    That may work during hunting seasons, except the pro trespass law crowd is quick to point out "this isn't about hunting." At least, that's their claim (despite the fact the impact of proposed statewide auto-posted laws will effect hunters far more than any other group). So if you truly want to...
