After a torturous February it appears that March is coming in like a lamb this year. Not sure what March going out like a lion might look like, but lets hope it is something along the lines of replenishing rain fall to assist the farmers in sub soil moisture levels. Once again the first …
For those of you who know me well, you recognize I have always been a gearhead at heart. I love tearing apart an engine, can work on pretty much anything outside of a transmission and can keep a motor running long after it should be used up. In college I worked at Chrysler dealerships in …
In the Summer on a super hot day, over 100 degrees, we would take a piece of tin and lay it on the sidewalk in the sun for a while. We would abscond with one of our mom’s chicken eggs and fry it on the tin. Cheap fun to make us recognize just how hot …
Not to complain as our winter has been pretty mild overall, but I am trying to get the whole concept of a groundhog who predicted another 6 weeks of winter this year. When I watched the televised coverage of the actual event in Pennsylvania, it was snowing to beat the band. No way this little …

While the Big 10 nearly punted on the whole season, it is nice to see Ohio State in the trenches with Alabama. Alabama is of course the perennial front runner, …
Welcome back. We survived 2020. 2021 looks to be a year of change. The new Administration takes over this month. We will see what becomes of a new normal as the vaccine is distributed. We will get a clearer picture of exactly what the damage that Covid did to our economy over the next few …
