UMD Women’s Hockey $1!

Hey sports fans — the UMD Women’s Hockey program wraps up its regular season this weekend at the Amsoil arena. Tickets are $1 in advance! $3 at the door!

For anybody that wants to comment like a caveman and say that women’s hockey is boring, you should know that this team has won 5 national championships in 10 years. These women are some of the best players in the world and many are Olympians. The program boasts every color of medal with current and past players. In a nutshell, these women would school you in a game of shinny any day. But the best part? These young women are really fabulous people. I’ve had a chance to get to know some of them over the years and it makes me a bigger fan.

Hurricane Season: the hidden messages in water

Any sitar players out there?

I’m looking to learn and didn’t know if anyone in the Duluth world here had any suggestions.

When oven coils ignite …

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 .

Clyde Iron Boxing – A Big Joke

When I heard there would be boxing at Clyde Iron, I knew my dad would love to go. He enjoys watching boxing on TV and has never been to a live fight. Tickets were being sold for $20 each for General admission and $40 for what I guess was reserved, although they did not mention what or where those seats would be, in fact the woman I spoke to had no idea how the seating would be arranged.

Canal Park Adventure Zone

Stopped down at the Canal Park Adventure Zone today with Mrs. Goose and the Goslings. Had to be dragged there is a little more like it. My wife got some free passes to the Laser Tag so I couldn’t very well say “no,” could I? So we went.

Ball to the Wall

A friend is conducting his motorbike from Minnesota to the South Pole. After painstaking deliberation, I decided for the sake of education, as he is an educator of troubled youth, that he wouldn’t mind if you guys snuck a peak.

Beer, Wine, and Trampled by Turtles!

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!)
