    How many still tip waiters and waitresses at 20% or more?

    The U.S. could go to a non-tipping method but then the price of all our meals go up. We’re paying one way or another.

    Wolves need managed!

    Moose are coming back too. I’m seeing moose in areas I’ve glassed almost 20 years without seeing a moose until the recent years.

    Wolves need managed!

    $13.50 for resident wolf tag and $31.50 for non-residents. You can come wolf hunt here. You probably won’t see one. Trapping is a way better way to kill wolves.

    Wolves need managed!

    Idaho has had wolves for 30 years. Elk figure out how to live with wolves. The unit I live in has surplus elk population, a large wolf presence (I can hear two different wolf packs from my house on occasion - seen wolves from my house), and one of the largest hunter elk kills. It wasn’t this...

    2025 spring bear thread

    We watched it work its way to us for an hour before bolted.

    How many still tip waiters and waitresses at 20% or more?

    I’m frugal but I’m not cheap. 20% plus in tips. You’d have to really be bad for me to not tip 20%. I can’t remember last time I didn’t. I’ll stiff the tip for running a cash register and other silly areas asking for tips. Best tip the last few years was one I was trying to get my filthy...

    2025 Garden!

    Boxes have scrap wood bottom half, topsoil next 80% and compost on top. I’d guess a period of cold caused the damage. I’ve had asparagus boxes for years. I have other boxes full of perennials.

    2025 spring bear thread

    Son and I did an evening hunt last night. Watched a chocolate bear come out of trees. We were trying to decide boar or sow when a blonde and black bigger cubs walked out. We watched the three graze for an hour before a rain storm chased us off the glassing point.

    2025 Garden!

    We’re slowly planting. Our frost free date is end of May. Picking a few asparagus. My boxes failed last year - only a few plants left. I have crowns coming to replant the boxes. Artichokes have heads about halfway done. We’ll pick those in a few weeks. This is the fourth season for those...

    January Inflation

    While some gamble, others use the markets to hedge interest rates or other commodities. Gamblers add liquidity to the markets for the hedgers.

    I use them professionally. Otherwise, no.

    January Inflation

    I’ve never heard this theory mentioned. (This is me thinking out loud. Doesn’t mean I’m right) Raising interest rates and high tariffs have a few similar reactions and contrary reactions. An argument could be made that high tariffs will weaken the economy and slow it down, similar to...

    January Inflation

    For what it’s worth, last report I had earlier this week showed the interest rate swap market had zero rate cuts priced into rates in May, and I believe June, and sixty percent chance for July. I might be off a month and it’ might be sixty percent for June. I thought two months no cuts...

    Wolves need managed!

    I always have a wolf tag in my pocket. It’s part of the sportsman’s package I buy. I’ve had exactly one chance at a wolf since the wolf season began. I caught a pack of wolves dispersed from hunting at night. They were returning to their daytime location, howling to each other for location...

    January Inflation

    There are a lot of pieces of this complicated economic pie. I don’t envy Powell at this time. I’ll parrot what the main economist (group of 5) I’ve been reading/listening to think on the rate issue. The Feds is in a tough position because the Fed needs to decide if it lowers rates to...

    Construction, busy or slowing down

    https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-construction-spending-falls-march-142513619.html The title is a misnomer. March construction spending increased 2.8% year-on-year but was down 0.50% for the month.

    Wolves need managed!

    I laugh when I hear hunters says they heard wolves and that all the elk are gone. Wolves are hunting elk. If you hear wolves, it’s because elk are in the area. Wolves don’t live in desolate places without food.

    January Inflation

    If the interest rates are lowered, we’ll have much higher inflation numbers.

    January Inflation

    The results of “Liberation Day” won’t start to appear in inflation until April. The last estimate I heard from economists (last week) was 1% addition to inflation in 2025.
