I have participated in Minnesota Democratic Party (officially known as the DFL1) activities in the past, but never as intimately as this year. In doing so, I've observed a number of very interesting things about how a political campaign works, and I'd like to share those observations with you...
Defenseman Marek Zidlicky was done with the Minnesota Wild, after a fundamental disagreement with coach Mike Yeo about his role and public statements of frustration to the media. The Wild's options were limited, too, as Zidlicky had a no-trade clause. When he moved, it wasn't expected to be for...
It's clear that Kris Humphries wants a piece of home beside him through this "difficult" time. The New Jersey Nets basketball player—who at one point wouldn't...
I support and endorse Sharon Sund for US Congress. Sharon will represent the Third District in Minnesota.
For years, the Third District, in which I live, was represented by a moderate Republican, Jim Ramstad. Though I never voted for him, it was not all that annoying that he was in...
i'm flying with my dog in december, taking her as a carry-on, not checking her as baggage. i'm wondering if a vet health certificate is required by either state? i've called the airline (delta) who says the airline doesn't require it but some states do, and that i should check with my vet. i've...

This is more coyote activity than usual for these parts. They are fairly common generally. The solution? Bring in wolves!

Looks like it's time to talk. Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are meeting face-to-face for the first time since Kim announced she was filing for divorce. Kim flew out to Minnesota...
</p> As the Lions work their way out of decades of putridity and Millenness, they bring forth a lot of nifty statistical "way-back-when"*tidbits. My favorite so far comes in this tweet from RJ Bell of Pregame.com:
Thirty years! That's incredible. The last time the Lions were favored in...
As the regular season winds down, 22 teams are facing an offseason filled with golf rounds and hot-stove strategery.
But we're not going to let them get off that easy. No sir. No way. In an attempt to bring some closure between franchise and follower, we're giving a blogger from each team the...
It has been something of a struggle over the years for the people of the Minnesota Planetarium Society. They've been trying to get a planetarium in Minneapolis for some time now, but for a number of reasons (not their fault) this has proved too difficult. Now there is good news. The Bell...
Returned as undeliberable, even though I called and gave my new address was told it would be delivbered there. Now i'm in Minnesota and want to pick it up. What are my options.
The least you should know about the 2011 Golden Gophers. Part of Big Ten Week.

I woke up this morning and the world was slightly different than it was the night before. Well, it probably always is a little different each day, but there are certain times when you notice this. I'm not talking about the bits of siding, roofing, and trees scattered about the landscape because...
The Minnesota Zoo has been involved in a Mexican Gray Wolf breeding and reintroduction program for some time now. Last I checked, it was not going well .... they were not having mush success in getting the wolves to produce offspring. I think they had some puppies in 2003, but I'm not sure of...
Bradlee Dean (photo source) is the infamous Minnesota preacher who has called for the execution of gay and lesbian people. Today the Republican controlled Minnesota house planned to take up legislation that would call for a constitutional ban on gay marriage, and Bradlee Dean was called on to...
