Two photos side by side. On the left is Karl Urban as Judge Dredd, labelled “Karl Urban”. On the right is Karl Urban as Eomer, labelled “Karl Rural”.

I am on a low salt message group. One person posts recipes and says “just leave out the salt”. It is rarely that simple. And of course this person has not made said recipe so cannot speak to flavor alterations from leaving out salt.

I saw a pair of bald eagles on the side of Hwy 61 in St. Paul Park this AM. I've seen them flying around in the area, never seen them just standing on the grass.

My son referred to Justin Jefferson as a “cheat code”. Some of the catches he makes are amazing.

Fox halftime commentator referred to the "Minneapolis Vikings". Sigh. At least they didn't claim Dublin, Ireland was in the UK this week.

Tough night for my Gophers. Playing #1 rated Ohio State at their home was always going to be an uphill battle.

I love it when I work up a good sweat at the gym. Just feels so good.

Mr Lover, an orange and white tabby cat, sitting in a sunbeam. He is very brightly lit, and he appears almost to be illuminating. His eyes are closed, but his nose looks very pink. Stormy, a black cat with green eyes, sits in the background under normal lighting.

may Mr Lover light your path

Our Long National Nightmare by Tom Tomorrow Relive the trauma of the last five years through the cartoons of Herblock Award winner and Pulitzer nominee Tom Tomorrow.

friends with large accounts, I'm not going to pester you personally but just generally speaking, I would sure appreciate a signal boost on this thing. We seem to have leveled out, and since this is a one-shot (won't be in bookstores) I'd like to get it out there as much as possible.

Every visit to Twitter reinforces belief in Dead Internet Theory. Bots, bots, and more bots posting AI-created slop. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_In...

It happens. Decades ago, I was briefed on a potential name for a product line. I googled the name because it sounded familiar. #1 hit - defunct brand of cigarettes, which is what I remembered. #2 hit- line of pig semen. I suggested we consider a different name.

"The Fifth Risk" by Michael Lewis has a section on advances in weather forecasting since the 2011 Joplin, MO tornado, IIRC all from the National Weather Service and NOAA.

They probably think they are doing a public service by passing on safety tips.

I am reading a mystery novel set in the Duluth area and now I want to visit the North Shore. My late wife and I used to visit Two Harbors as a getaway, take the kids to see fall colors and Gooseberry Falls. Betty's Pies.

Pretty good storm rolling thru. Plenty of rain, some thunder.

What to know about Fat Bear Week, and the brawny bruins ready to battle for the title The annual Fat Bear Week featuring gluttonous brown bears at Alaska’s Katmai National Park and Preserve is back.

Painful 24 hours for Minnesota football. The Gophers didn't get the job done vs. Cal and the Vikings didn't look good against Atlanta.

I was surprised to find Amazon offering the series "The Lincoln Lawyer", which is a Netflix show.

The parents of many of the kids in my elementary school had A shotgun for duck hunting and A rifle for deer hunting, typically bolt-action, maybe a semi-auto with a 6-8 round magazine if you were fancy. They didn't have an arsenal of 40 weapons, each with 30 round magazines. Not the same.

These BBQ gloves are one of my favorite kitchen tools. They insulate from heat yet still have enough flexibility to pick up pots. They are long enough to protect my forearms.

Whoa, that was a loud bit of thunder, shook the house. Guess the storm hasn't completely passed yet.

I am a believer in the etiquette of wiping down gym equipment after I finish my sets, but now I'm going to be extra cautious.

Re-watched "Kimi", with Zoe Kravitz playing an agoraphobic tech worker living in an amazing loft. I previously watched it in-flight, on a tiny screen, and the re-watch revealed much. I hadn't caught the clues the character was on the autism spectrum, for example.
