1) This may have been covered before, but do those come up randomly or in some sequence?

2) How can there be no comments on any of the banners on the Flickr site? It’s odd to me that photographers haven’t typed in more info on what’s going on in the picture.

3) Why is the little girl in the cat make-up so sad?

So, when your oven makes a weird sound and you look inside to find a little flame coming from a hole in the coil, does that mean you should call a repairman or plan on replacing the whole unit?

Anyone qualified to help me mentally prepare for how big of a hit the ol’ credit card is going to take when Daugherty’s opens on Monday, chime in .

Don’t wait to get your tickets for the newest beer and wine fest around town (these things are known to sell out, even without the Trampled show post-party). You can get them online. Hope to see some of you there! (PS – I tried to get a room at Black Bear last week because I have friends coming up from Mpls, and they were sold out. If you’re worried about driving, there’s a free shuttle between Fond-du-Luth & Black Bear all night. Keep it safe!)
