    Let them eat cake.

    I've been on that stretch of 89 countless times, going up into the national forests in the Little Belts with my grandpa in a1960's beatup tan Ford pickup. The bed held two small and one large McCulloch chainsaws. It was where any tree on the ground was firewood for the winter. On the way back...

    It's hard to imagine ND in a state of greeness. I've driven Hwy 2 more times than I care to remember, and always brown, brown, brown. Hopefully I will get to see it in a couple of weeks as I drive to Touratech.

    I completely agree. This pan from Sweden is scary smooth, perfectly uniform, and has an amazingly slick surface. I season it occasionally with avacado oil and 500° in the oven, but regular use keeps it extremely slick.

    I've looked very carefully at it over the years, and when I got it in my hot little hands, I spent a morning carefully scraping off the decades of "stuff" encrusted on the bottom hoping to find a mark of some kind. But, there were no markings there. When I showed the pan to my dad after removing...

    Let them eat cake.

    We live in Chicago, but our familes are in NE and SD, so we cross the Ol' Mississip at least a few times a year. We made a game for our kids when they were young to count how many times they could spell Mississippi while crossing it. A couple of weeks ago, we went to NE over Memorial Day weekend...

    Any idea why they're called Schneider eggs? Is it a reference to the trucking company? (I'm asking because Schneider is a big client of my other company.)

    I thought it was a law that anything electronic had to come from the Bay Area! (Apologies to Providence-based Denali!)

    My great grandmother immigrated to the US carrying the most amazing cast iron skillet I've ever seen. It was apparently made in Sweden long ago. It's amazingly thin, amazingly light, and heats up extremely quickly, but yet somehow holds heat like it was twice the weight. It was passed down to my...

    I'm not sure you know what "short cut" means. ;) Or maybe you should have paid more attention in trig in high school...another word you should learn is hypotenuse. It's marked in green below. If you see any free samples laying around in XL, please pick them up.

    Great quote!! Honestly, we've taken prototypes to 3 MOA rallies, one RA rally, and a few Overland Expos. Last year's MOA rally was by far the most insane. Just ask Marlin! I'd talked him the year before at an Overland Expo for about an hour. At Redmond he came up and we talked for a 10 minutes...
