You ever find something special in the oddest of places? Maybe even something expensive or rare? In Rogers Minnesota they found something that someone might want back even if it was in raw sewage. One of the workers found a diamond ring in a drain. The plant is 60 years old so there is no […]
There is nothing like the wonder of a child when they first experience something new. Their eyes get bigger and they can barely speak, and they marvel at their new experience as a life changing moment. Sometimes adults have a similar response but it isn’t as adorable that’s for sure. Now, when someone older gets […]
You don’t have to be a fan of hockey to appreciate the power of “the flow” at the Minnesota High School State Hockey Tournament. For a few years now these videos have gained more popularity each year. The video breaks down and names the hockey hair of the players as they are introduced on TV […]
Everywhere you live there is some form of stress. It can come from home life, work, or just the drive between the two of them. There are a lot of factors that can increase stress at work: Demanding bosses, being understaffed, tight timelines, and being in the state of Texas, apparently. There’s a new study […]
The weather is…terrible. That’s not the real problem though. The problem is we take too much time complaining about it. In the tri-states we run the gamut of freezing cold with a windchill to hot as heck with humidity when it comes to our seasons. Somewhere in the middle is perfect Fall and Spring days […]
Where we live is no stranger to bad weather especially in the winter. Every year we usually have one or two bad storms or maybe a string of sub-zero days that seem unrelenting. Every so often we get a big storm that is reminiscent of days long gone when our parents walked uphill both ways […]
Politics is awful and not a lot of fun. We vote and hope for the best even if our candidate doesn’t win. The Minnesota Department or Transportation has a fun vote every year to name snowplows throughout the state. Most agree it’s some winter time fun that they can laugh about and not have much […]
Commercials for beer during sporting events go together like cereal and milk, peanut butter and jelly, chili cheese dip and tortilla chips. Speaking of that last one, you know that at most Super Bowl parties that you attend in the Midwest are going to have the staple of all party dips: Hormel Chili and cheese […]
Every year (and I do mean EVERY year) there is a story about the perils of ice fishing. Some are very sad while some are fun. The rest you kind of wonder how intelligent folks are. I may not go out fishing in the freezing temps to see if I can get any lunkers, but […]
It’s always cool when you see a kid challenge themselves. Isaac Ortman from Duluth decided his challenge was to sleep outside for as long as he can even in the winter. He has been sleeping in a “quinzee” which is basically a snow fort. He piles up snow and hollows it out until it is […]
