    I've been waiting to hear if a vote is looming but haven't heard anything yet.

    Taking my life back

    Based on what evidence? People often don't take care, but when they eventually get going on it and do, they find themselves unable to lose the weight that popular opinion folks (perhaps you?) suggest they will, even doing everything right. Individual metabolisms vary widely. And they change...

    Taking my life back

    This is exactly the type of thing that has me suggesting another doctor is needed. And that's not doctor shopping--thats just getting someone to honestly LISTEN to you. Can you get a referral to or go to a weight loss specialist? That's right in their wheelhouse, and as mentioned the GLP-1...

    Boundary waters under attack

    A few things I didn't mention. Regarding jobs, there is widepread belief that by the time any mine would get started, more jobs that today are filled by people would be done by machines--and underground operations would/could be conducted by people remotely, living nowhere near the mine...

    Perhaps care is needed when they enter the masters chambers, gathering to meet the beast?;)

    Taking my life back

    Doctor shopping in the sense of finding one that talks and works with you in the way you want to be worked with, yes. Shopping to find someone that always agrees with you or your own diagnosis is a different thing entirely. GLP-1 drugs--the narrative on those is different from what I...

    Taking my life back

    My take: Its gotta be tough being a doctor these days, so much info out there and so many patients demanding that they agree with the patients diagnosis. But it's also very important to find a doctor that matches your desires. I'm not an easy patient from the standpoint of accepting things...

    2026 Winter Olympics

    Don't disagree, just drawing the difference from which I think many find it fair to question the intent of their decision to attend the State of the Union speech. Several of the women play for the pro team in my state. Reporting here is clear and consistent--they have indicated they didn't...

    2026 Winter Olympics

    Ditto. That's a place where you are celebrated for accomplishment. The state of the union though? That's a highly political event, you get trotted out there to support a political agenda. Its completely different, and IMO invites legitimate questions of political intent by the players.

    Boundary waters under attack

    FWIW, my points when talking to people/answering common questions on this are: "Its not in the BWCA"...no, but its immediately outside it, and near waters that flow north into the BWCA. "We need to allow environmental review and the permit process to work". Already been extensively reviewed...

    Trapping Thread 2025/2026

    My oldest grandson will be 9 tomorrow. He's been trapping with his Dad, and really getting into it. Somewhere around here I have a picture of him trying his best to hold a beaver up that was as big as he was from a few years back. This year they've taken some nice coons, coyotes, a nice cat...

    You could hand some of them a shovel. They are likely to need another one given how hard they are digging that hole.

    Looking forward to this year. Have a grandson that I think I can get out for a bit, bought a CVA 410 with some TSS...need to get the red dot mounted and sight it in soon, it's off at the gunsmiths as it needs a hole or two tapped to mount the new low profile red dot I bought for it. Saw some...

    2026 Winter Olympics

    Was in agreement until the last point. Cmon man--the trio that Canada had out there for overtime is not one you'd take 99 times out of 100? I was just talking to someone about the unsung hero of the gold medal win. Bill Guerin and the carefully chosen roster he put together. The most...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    Looks like any market sigh of relief is already over. Probably his 10--no now 15 percent--tariff threat over the weekend.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    If he re establishes tariffs soon, the time Congress needs to step in would be even closer to the midterm election. Going to be interesting...maybe should look into popcorn futures...

    Any hockey fans out there?

    I was at the College Dave Christian played for when they won in 80. Pretty memorable, as was that college team. Won the natty that year and two years later as well. The old WCHA was an incredible amount of fun in those days.

    2026 Winter Olympics

    With any luck, your three favorite players on this team will be playing my favorite three players for the chance to play in the Stanley final. No surprise that those guys from the Avs and Wild play for the top two teams by record in the NHL right now.

    2026 Winter Olympics

    Amazing game! I was hoping the non call against the US for too many men on the ice wouldn't be the story. In the end Canada had plenty of chances.
