    My son works 12 hour shifts, overnite one month then days the next month.
    Came home after the overnight, door was down and he had forgotten his opener for some reason. Got out to do the keypad and left the car in gear. It “idled” into the door and the only reason things were not worse was my boat was inside and the door pushed into the hitch and stopped his car. I have 3 panel doors so hard to find I guess and I only needed the bottom two. Matt, the garage door guy had to fill out paperwork to become “eligible’ to buy product from them and got them ordered for me. THat was last winter. For some reason something went haywire on the track (something must have jammed a roller) and the door stopped kitty wompas halfway up and bent the track to hell. He put on a new section of track and replaced the cable on one side.
    NO idea what must have jammed. Came out about 6:45 last nite and got it taken care of it in under an hour.
    Nice guy and helpful as heck.

    FFS has a different meaning in my book. How about you actually go fishing and not stare at a screen all day. FFS.

    AMEN- watching my son’s friend on rainy last year sit and stare at a screen all day. We caught more than he did. HOWEVER, to each his own. In my opinion I am already cheating w SI and DI so FFS is just one more way to make the sport less enjoyable FOR ME. You do you. I am out there for the sun, water and relaxation. A fish is just a bonus and I don’t eat them anyway.

    FYI, I think follow the contour is a personal thing. I rarely use mine but I don’t fish that way as a bass fisherman. When we go to rainy I will use it sometimes but prefer to just highlife the depth I am fishing, plus or minus two feet and just either slow troll or jig through those areas. It has a hard time following contours that change and meander quickly and often and a lot it times I find myself scratching my head wondering what’s wrong. Probably user error but mine are also Gen 1 so the units may have improved since the. I personally find spot lock to be the best invention ever but that’s just me.

    Never understood the parking thing from the get-go.
    THere was room for at least some parking if not more if they were creative. I just assumed they were trying to “gentrify” the area.
    My son goes occasionally and his buddy lives down there. Also have a branch I visit down there too. They all recommend straight to the vehicle or Uber afterwards – do NOT dally. Their advice from experience. I have no personal advice as I do not frequent any parts of Minneapolis.

    Short article but kind of solidifies what I already felt.
    Baseball is the NUMBER 1 sport for me – love it.
    The tv issue is huge – figure it out people. More money than god and you dick around with pennies and dally in the franchise when you feel like it.
    Pohlad staying on after the sale?!?!?! I am guessing the potential buyer fell over from laughter at the thought.
    Because your other “inherited” businesses are struggling perhaps you should divest yourself of this club and move on. With $475+ million in debt haggling over $300 million seems foolish to me. Lot of money? Yup, you bet, but this fan is tired of the crap effort and crap product.
    THis team could be an amazing draw for an owner who wants to win and run a good team. THe fan base is huge and we can draw from quite a ways, beautiful stadium and good history, the sky’s the limit.
    Don’t care what their issues are, I care about baseball so this may be the end of my support. Last nite’s game ( yes, only the FIRST one) was a journey down recent memory lane. Ober throws the ball away on a freebie pick to second base, bases loaded and we can’t even put it in play…….

    aaaaggggggghhhhhhhhh

    I have an aqua view. Love it ice fishing. Color, like watching my aquarium.
    Tough in low light and as already said the light just highlights all the crap in the water.
    Bring it up to Rainy and it’s quite interesting to see what’s below you.
    Awfully cool, you CAN troll it too. Pretty small and easy to use. Battery life is 6-8 hours straight for me.
    Welcome to borrow it anytime if you like.

    I agree dirty.
    For me, if I support our president’s actions ( I do) then this is part of the pain I must suffer for him to succeed and get this country back on the right track. No doubt we will feel it in some fashion over the next couple years.
    We get to the border at Fort Frances by 10 am on Friday of the opener and usually wait at most 10 minutes. We were there during the first Covid re-entry and the line was almost all the way to Ranier!! Went to Baudette and crossed with no wait. However, one hour to baudette and one hour back to fort Frances. The wait was 8+ hours I was told by a local.
    Buy most of our food in Canada to support Canada business but the store in fort Frances is often poorly or out of stock so that’s a problem.
    We will deal with it and be prepared.

    We went Saturday right away. Good crowd in my opinion. Just go to walk around, kill a few hours see new things get ideas….. My son’s aim was another Trika rod which he bought so mission accomplished. I have only been there the last two years so not much experience with size. Lots of campers though, yes

    I am looking for some specifics ( I know you listed big band , Elvis…) But I collect my favs from high school. Some I have i would like better album jackets( no rips, creases, writing on them ….)
    I ordered a Queen – news of the world from the UK two years ago. Looked all over the metro and could not find one. Paid $32 for the album and delivery. Outside of fishing arguably my favorite hobby.
    I have 196 on the walls in “my” room right now. Looking for upgrades for the following.
    Carole king -Tapestry
    Steely Dan- Aja or Katy Lied
    ?? The Byrds- mr tambourine man
    New copy zeppelin sticks
    New copy 38 special wild eyed southern boys ( not too bad)
    New copy meatloaf bat out of hell
    Boston 3rd stage
    New: queen night at the opera
    New: Billy Thorpe- children of the son
    Steppenwolf born to be wild
    Deep purple – machine head
    Allman bros – Eat a peach
    Crosby stills – Deja Vu
    Neil Young – Harvest

    Tune town in Mankato man would be a great place to check for selling. Website is facebook address but the phone is 507-625-6507.
    They have TONS of albums and may be interested

    Amen, I quit 40 years ago. HARD habit to shake.
    I see it same as drinking or anything else. You have to want to quit. Not excuses like Dutch boy mentioned. He’s right.
    Littering/. Absolutely. A guy in front of me at a light opened his door and emptied his cars ashtray on the ground. Lit him up and he just basically told me where to go. What a d-bag.
    Vapes?! STUPIDIST looking thing in the world. Worse than cigs for you in my opinion.

    From their regs book:
    If you purchased a recreational fishing
    licence, other than a 1-day licence, you must
    carry your Outdoors Card when fishing. You must
    carry your licence summary if the current fishing
    licence is not listed on the Outdoors Card or if
    you have not yet received your Outdoors Card. If
    requested, you must present these documents
    to a conservation officer. An Outdoors Card is a
    plastic, wallet-sized card valid for 3 calendar years
    and used for administration purposes.
    A licence summary is a document that lists all
    valid fishing and hunting licences. The Licence
    Summary can be either a printed copy or saved
    as a digital format.
    Digital Format: You can carry your Licence
    Summary in a digital format, such as on a mobile
    device. You can have a copy of your Licence
    Summary sent to your email address by accessing
    your account using the Fish and Wildlife Licensing
    Service. If you choose to carry your Licence
    Summary on your mobile device, it must be in
    the PDF format provided to you from the Fish
    and Wildlife Licensing Service (a photograph or
    screenshot of your Licence Summary is not valid). ( this sheet/PDF lists your license ands your Outdoors card. I have shown this and it was sufficient.

    Non-Canadian residents under 18 years of age
    may fish without an Outdoors Card and licence
    if accompanied by a person who has a valid
    Ontario Recreational Fishing Licence. Any fish
    kept are part of the catch and possession limit of
    the person who holds the licence. Alternatively,
    non-Canadian residents under 18 years of age
    may purchase an Outdoors Card and Recreational
    Fishing Licence to have their own limits.

    IO have reviewed every page on Ontario I can find and cannot find reference to tan Emergency Kit. I know you are supposed to have one. I do on my boat
    I will continue looking

    Keymaster is correct!!!
    The dems want a green world and our leaders create laws/regulations to tax the crap out of everything so we find ways to get around it like shipping in multiple packages to avoid the charges and be even LESS GREEN in the process. Political response? Yep, let the “blame” fall where it belongs.

    We grill at least twice a week all year round.
    Porterhouse is my go to. 6 mins a side @425 then 6-8 mins wrapped in tinfoil.
    Smash burgers on the blackstone are the best

    It just always seemed like the leap from catalog to internet should have been an easy transition for some reason. It’s always intrigued me. I look in a catalog or I look online ( yes there are differences) but a lot of the puzzle should be the same or similar

    Other people’s money means almost zero chance of running in the black.
    It needs an overhaul for the 21st century.
    Good on the employees who work their asses off, the money problem is not theirs.

    On an unrelated note: Sears had been doing online business since the 19th century – how did they get eaten up by others on the internet sales model?! I mean, they were already doing it…… it’s always struck me as odd

    Keep him out.
    The steroid boys – out
    The wife/girlfriend /drug abuser/gambleholics/murderers out.
    If pro sports had any class they would deal harshly and quickly with this. The Astros cheating scandal?! What a joke. Take the team, fire everyone, fine the owner eleventy billion but SEND A MESSAGE
    Rose included – most of these guys are good humans – many are not. By the grace of god they can throw or catch or jump. Understand how lucky you are and be grateful

    I never had a problem with the crime. Its been awhile since I rode the light rail in the cities but the only problems I had then was people trying to sell me CDs and they were original music and not even bootlegs. Cops got on at any stop that people who looked suspect were also getting on. But the subsidization of a rail system with state dollars by an unelected commission is pretty scary. And they do it alot. Your savings can be at least partially attributed to the taxes collected on roadside cow and rock stands from people who have no input and no choice but to pay.

    AMEN – that’s to the point – another un needed project to get elected upon
