    A White Christmas...barely

    Here's wishing everyone a Merry Christmas! I'm as disappointed as the next guy that the storm was down-sized. I've always felt that if we're riding by Christmas in Wisconsin that it's a bonus to an early start. The cold next week will help freeze things up in the wet areas and still a White...

    Important Christmas Message

    CHRISTMAS PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Those of you who are placing Christmas lights/decorations in your yards, can you please avoid anything that is red or blue and flashing?

    things that you hear in Walmart

    So I was at Walmart earlier. A lady was looking at frozen turkeys, but she couldn’t find one big enough. She asked the stock boy, “Do these turkeys get any bigger?” He replied with a straight face, “no mam, they’re all dead now”.

    Happy Thanksgiving

    I want to wish all the members of the John Dee family a Happy Thanksgiving. If you're traveling for the holiday, make it a safe one. Our parents are gone now but still many memories of Mom in the kitchen, Dad asleep in the chair and the Lions and Cowboys on TV. We'll be staying in town this year...

    Brett is no Favre

    I'm all for giving Hundley a chance to shine but after 3 games I just don't see it happening. Bulaga is down again, the defense is no where to be found and for the first time since 1971 the Lions didn't need to punt for the entire game at Lambeau. Go Badgers!

    Packers & Vikings: thoughts & predictions

    Green Bay is favored by 3.5 on the road to our neighbors to the west. The Vikings have a good coach and always play the Packers tough but Monday night Bradford looked pretty bad against the Bears for as long as he lasted. I'm thinking Green Bay by 10 points in this one, I don't think Minnesota...

    Packers and Bears Week

    The Bears are one dimensional, have a weak armed quarterback and their prized all-world draft pick is riding the bench. Just the kind of team that Green Bay can lose to. This could very well be one of those Trap Games that the Packers seem to have just about every year. The Pack is favored by 7...

    The Football Thread & Thoughts

    Signs of the Apocalypse

    FARGO, N.D. (KVLY) -- You've may have heard someone say "adulting." The term is now a verb in the dictionary, and it means to behave like an adult. But it may surprise you how many ‘grown-ups’ don't know how to do basic adult things. Scrolling through Twitter it’s not uncommon to see...

    Pictures from the weekend; Lake Winnebago

    Hoping to keep things fresh on the John Dee Forums during the summer months, here's a few pictures from the weekend on Winnebago. After spending all of last week working at the E.A.A. AirVenture in Oshkosh we headed out Sunday morning to avoid the crowds. The first is a view of the western...

    EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh July 23/30

    Again this year I'll be part of the transportation and logistics team at Wittman Field, the home of the E.A.A. Fly-In called AirVenture. It's a great vacation destination and rather than try to describe it in words I'll let a couple of videos show what they have to offer...

    Some Things You Don't See Everyday

    I took a Charter group in to Oshkosh Truck’s Testing grounds this week. Oshkosh is just down the Interstate from us in Neenah, Wisconsin. It’s where they test all the military stuff that they build and I thought these photos were worth sharing as most of us don’t see this kind of thing every...

    Memorial Day messages go here...

    Looks like I'll be the first to wish everyone a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend. If you're traveling be careful out there and get them home safely. We plan to stay around the house, it's finally warm enough for me to plant the garden. I'll probably take the new Spyder for a ride sometime...
