School Shootings are Terrorism
It is terrorism to shoot schoolchildren. It is the extreme of cowardice.
For it to continue as it has year after year, shows a lack of (real) concern for our most valuable and most vulnerable citizens.
I'm tired of the excuses, because there is no excuse.

Where is the Sensitive Content?
I was surprised to find that a post from 18 years ago about a trip up passed Hovland, Minnesota, was recently flagged for "sensitive content." For the life of me, I can't see any sensitive content.

Disco Card!
Do high prices have you feeling down? You need the Disco Card!
"Well, you can tell by the way I use my card I'm a paying man, no time to talk. Money loud and takeout warm I've been payin' with plastic since I was born..."

Vikings Lose Thielen and Keep Cousins
Just to set the record straight, Adam Thielen was let go from the Minnesota Vikings for being too old and costing too much. Meanwhile, Kirk Cousins is two years older and made more than $30 million more (than Thielen) in 2022.
Kirk Cousins Born August 19, 1988 · Barrington, Illinois
Salary in 2022 $35 million
Adam Thielen Born: Aug 22, 1990 · Detroit Lakes, Minnesota
Salary in 2022 $4,253,529
I could have fixed the salary cap with one trade and kept all the fan favorites. Sure we would need a quarterback again, but Kirkland products are pretty easy to replace.

World War History Primer
While I was watching the news, My son (5th grade) asked me if we were heading for World War III. I can remember growing up, thinking that I was going to end up drafted and in a war (Vietnam was in the news at that time).
I asked him what he knew about WWI and WWII. Then I decided he needed a crash course (of history). I found the answer on YouTube.com. These are both informative and entertaining. He has since watched several others in the series.

Simple Decor
It is okay to have open spaces. Likewise, useful items can be in full view. It is not necessary to clutter every inch of space with useless decorations and hide tools at the bottom of drawers. Beauty can exist in simplicity.

Nothing
And when
That person
Who was supposed to love you,
Slices through
Your Soul,
You look down
And see your heart
Falling from your chest,
As it lands with a plop,
In a bloody mass
At your feet.
You watch,
As it still beats slowly,
Slower,
And finally it stops.
And you know
Nothing will ever
Be the same.

Hiking with Kids..
I took the family for a hike today. We walked along the beautiful creek, saw lots of birds, cool ice features and running water. We climbed a bluff and looked out at the view below. When we are all done, and having lunch, I asked my son what his favorite part was. He said it was eating the McDonald's that we were having...
