According to the pundits (which I ALWAYS believe) Nikki Haley has to win New Hampshire or she's done. I assume she and Desantis can see the writing on the wall as well as anybody and are simply hanging in so as to be in place if the "Bump Trump" thing happens or he somehow gets fitted for a cellmate before the election. Kinda looking like Trump's gonna make it through the gauntlet though. I wonder if in his acceptance speech he's gonna be the first president to flip the double bird on national TV or expose his ass to be kissed? As for Biden - surely on a yacht somewhere are some behind the scenes power broker dudes sipping Mimosas and trying to figure out how to get him shoved down a flight of stairs right?

Thanks for that story and photo Howard. It's shot up to 5 degrees ABOVE 0 here so things are improving. Looks like the Canadian Air Front of Doom and Despair is moving east. I've turned the corner so I don't think I'm gonna die but this latest bout of the crud was/is a doozy. Other than up a few times to drink water and Nyquil and pee I was in bed for over 30 hours. On the plus side I lost 8 pounds so there's that. I feel like I've been beat with a stick and am vocalizing in croaks. BUT:

These are my favorite store bought pre cooked. The uncooked tortillas from Costco are really good, but they mold in the fridge before I can use them all. Mike Hands down the best.

-15 here too this morning. Started getting sick Saturday mid day and spent most of the weekend in bed. In the shop for a bit then heading back home. I think the cold snap is about over.

This thread had me thinking back to my childhood and the choices I had regarding the household menu. Oh yeah, that's right: "You'll eat what's in front of you and like it or go to bed hungry!". I don't know if it's a bad thing or a good thing but it's interesting to observe how much more "kid centric" we've become over the last 40 years.
Howard - not being critical or anything - just observing on a more macro level.

4 below, 8" of new snow, and still snowing sideways. It gets even worse in July. Tell your friends about Montana. I implore you!

This thread reminds me I need to marinate that huge flap of flank steak that’s in the fridge. We are having us some beef fajitas tonight baby!

Light snow, likely won't reach an inch. Current temp is 2F above with an expected high of 4F. After being slowed by knee surgery and trouble understanding the directions the Chinese included for the stand assembly, by tonight, all will in place to fill my new 75 gallon aquarium. My little saulosi cichlids (mubanas) from Lake Malawi (Africa) have been watching my progress with great interest. It will be their new home (modeled after the rocky reef structure the little blue and yellow fish call home. Their current home from which they watch: Those gray striped ones look suspiciously like perch to me. Let me guess: Maki's Aquarial Supplies & Bait??

I've been working up an acoustic arrangement of this Springsteen song and when doing some research came across this. Wonderful!

Morning. Been a week of putting out fires and dealing with a cold. On the mend and Friday is in sight. We have a forecast for 20 below on Saturday. If that comes to pass there will be a lot of hanging around the house I expect.

I think lions are cool man. I like these kind of cougars way better than the other ones!

Here's what a big lion track looks like. I can palm a basketball so that's a big glove

After not much activity last year we have a lion working the patch of woods behind the house. Tracks aren't huge so I'm thinking it's a she. Now if I ever pick up a JAGUAR on MY trail cam we might have a global warming issue.

In the the movie “Unforgiven” when Clint walks through the saloon doors because you know what’s coming: “Who’s the fella owns this shithole?”
