  1. Yeah, and after watching it again, you can see him hacking, and then finally dragging the blade across the Lions neck, that seems to be the source of the blood and sudden motionlessness after that. Took a few watches, that's for sure!
  2. You can walk right up to the Flying Squirrels if you want when you see them on a tree. Don't walk directly towards them, work back and forth, 20-25 feet at a time, narrowing that distance as you get closer to them. They'll sit there until you reach out and try to touch them before they fly off. Used to do this all the time when I had my cabin in Northern Sconnie.... Just for taking close up pics.
  3. As I stated... we took their lead, and did lockdowns.
  4. Oh I understand that. But still, we took their lead on that vs. just dealing with it our own way like we always have.
  5. You mean like we did here in 2019 and then again in 2020??
  6. Flying Squirrels! I've caught them on trail cams before..... Could be both Bats and Flying Squirrels after looking at them a little more.
  7. Tourasses is what they called them at an old place I used to stop at by Winter, WI - But friendly as anyone!
  8. My neighbors wife is from China, been living in the states for about 25 years now. She says she will NEVER EVER go back. It is interesting listening to her on current events from time to time. Some of the things she has heard from family and friends who are still there would make your skin crawl.
  9. I’m with ya, this heat is not my friend, and I just got my 2018 back from Indy Specialties! Hopefully I can get another 12k out of this new motor!
  10. Wait a second, you do know there is a pretty regular maintenance schedule for those big wind turbines right?
  11. I don't have a problem with people wanting to use solar, or wind, or what ever kind of energy generation you want. Free market baby! Energy = Freedom - so don't take away the energy I am using today is my take. But what is the end game? HOW is this going to "save the environment"? What is that metrics that are going to be used for measuring? What are the excuses going to be if the Climate is still changing??
  12. That would be a HARD pass for me.

  14. But that’s just the point, it HAS happened before. Remember the dust bowl years? I don’t either, but it happened!

  16. It was 102 degrees today in the Twin Cities…. In 1926!
  17. I-39?? Yeah, it is AMAZING what runs up and down that freeway during the course of a day. My office over looks I-39, and I said it just the other day to the little woman, the amount of $$ rolling by is just crazy.
  18. There haven't been new refineries built in decades. They just continue to expand them like the one about 20 miles from me. It's at LEAST 10x the size it was 30 years ago. And there are other issues, like in Texas where there is more than enough oil, but they can't get workers there. One of those issues being only 150 miles from the border, are the illegals that the gov't is buying up the temporary housing for. When you can rent to the gov't for $750/mo vs. $65/mo that an oil worker is willing to pay, who do you think the landlords are going to rent to??
  19. MANY years ago I had a little sticker I put in the back window that said: As Slow As You Want In The Right Lane Made sense to me! And no, as that video pointed out, they are not teaching this like they should be.
  20. The little woman has a place in Plover we still frequent. It's a nice change of pace.
