    Thanksgiving's Top 5 on the Side

    Feel free to chime in but I'm going with 3 out of 5 for sides with my Turkey. I just can't get my head around Mac & Cheese for this feast and I've never been a fan of the Sweet Potatoes. Not that I'm a picky eater, but I also just found out what's in Giblet Gravy. Thank you, No! I'll pass on the...

    The Three Old Guys (revisited)

    Now that the weather has turned and we're getting ready for the upcoming snow season, I thought it an idea to revisit one of the biggest stories of snowmobiling from last winter. The Three Old Guys snowmobile trek from Minnesota to the Atlantic Ocean, Nova Scotia to be exact. They kept a daily...

    A Dear John Letter

    Tuesday, November 14, 2023 was like any other November Day. The leaves were gone, the air was crisp and most were looking forward to the upcoming holiday season. As is my normal routine, I check in with the Website a few times a day, monitoring traffic, and conduct the regular housekeeping for...

    Get Your Popcorn Ready

    Landman Season Two Begins Sunday on Paramount+ We got hooked on this show last year. I've considered TV a wasteland for a long time, but this one changed my opinion. They can make good shows if they want to. Here's the Trailer of the New Season

    50 Years Ago, Monday

    It's been 50 years since the storm that sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald. I was rather young at the time, don't remember much about it, then the song by Gordon Lightfoot came out in 76 and everyone's curiosity was peeked. Since then, lots of books on the subject, a few TV Programs and a museum in the...

    Time to "Fall Back" One Hour

    It's that time of year to set your clocks back one hour when you turn in on Saturday night. The good news is we'll gain an hour of sleep for one night and the days will continue getting shorter (less sunlight) for another month or so. Arizona and Hawaii are exempt. Most anything with a chip will...

    Well, Now You Know....

    We're all familiar with the Budweiser Clydsdales and to a lesser extent, the Dalmation on each wagon. The present day purpose of the Budweiser Dalmatian is to serve as a companion and mascot for the Budweiser Clydesdales, a tradition that began in 1950. Originally, Dalmatians ran alongside...

    Time for a New Helmet?

    Most manufacturers recommend replacing your helmet every 5 years. Assuming yours has never been needed to save your noggin in an accident, what say you? Johnny Skeptical says.... Just a few scratches here and there. It finally fits just perfect. They're just trying to sell more helmets.

    Definitely Off Topic

    I didn't want to hijack Skiroule's thread as he mentioned the possibility of towing an Ice Shanty or load of wood with a wide track. This spurred a memory and photo of mine from years ago when our neighbors had a 12/3 Ski Doo Olympic. The picture shows them about to tow a load of wood with that...
