I was actually surprised they showed biathlon. I don't recall seeing it in recent year's TV coverage. Perhaps they had to because of the human interest story behind the girl who dropped out so her twin sister could compete.
The two soviet state newspapers were Pravda (Truth) and Izvestia (News). The common saying was there's no news in the Truth and no truth in the News. It seems to apply fairly well to our current hack media as well.
INGO math lesson.
OK class repeat after me 14 minus 8 is not equal to 5.
crap, I've become "that guy". Well, I didn't see any grammar errors. Carry on.
The class is already ongoing - Thursday 6-8:30. I can and will come by afterwards at least to say hi right at closing time, or on Wednesday I could be there the full time. Obviously Wednesday works best for me for the next few months, but apparently not for Jason at this time. So you all can...
I work at the State nursery, thanks for the plug. As of close of business friday we still had about 98,000 3-year-old norway spruce seedlings available. They typically run 24"-36" in size and are great for windbreaks. Unless you have a huge deer population, they usually won't bother the...
It's not that bad - just don't look. I know, sounds easy but its not. All in all it beats an injection in the eyeball. Yeah I've had that too, you can't not look. Guaranteed to give you the willies.
I took the SOLO WFA 4 years ago and again last fall through IU outdoor adventures. The SOLO program is very worthwhile. At the University there were several students just taking it for an easy credit and they didn't try very hard - the level of benefit you get out of these is tied pretty...
Backpacking and snow camping with my BOB. Gear worked great ( I was fed, watered, sheltered and warm) but I learned that I'm fat, old, and out of shape. I used to backpack a lot, but that was years ago. I need to get back into it on a regular basis.
I learned that I need to keep a set of...
If you want to be able to log a particularly good fishing hole, file a claim for mineral rights (gold, etc), or have hours of fun playing with an electronic gadget when you should be looking around then get a stand alone GPS. If you want to make a call, send a text, or check your email bring a...
SC state shooting was a single student in a dorm attacked by 4 others and shot. Sounds like gang violence - maybe a dispute over payment for drugs. Just my first impression.
The sarcastic part is that I have any ability to make such pronouncements. It was nice to meet both you and your wife, and you are always welcome - in the general way anybody from the group can welcome you. I am in charge of nothing - just Burl's inside joke.
