Well, Fargo's getting more Fashionable!
Comments (14)This is TOO funny! NEVER expected a BANK & Fashion connection!!! I can see it now in the thread-title.... I s'pose you guys were thinking..."WTH is Faron rambling about now"?!??!?! Re the movie "Fargo". THE ONLY scene actually filmed HERE was the opening home-kidnap scene! Most was filmed in/around Brainerd, MN, and Minneapolis.... Saaayyyyy... What'dya mean Fargo is frigid country?!?! We're having a VERY mild winter. Cooler tonite though, down to -5 actual. AJ- Yeah....I'm interested in lots of things! I can even critique what I think of Vanna Whites' Hair, Wardrobe, and Makeup when WOF starts! Hate to say this, but Joan Rivers "Fashion Police" show is a hoot sometimes!! For a while now, I thought the last segment was called "Fash-'Ho" of the week!!!!!!!!! LOL! DD corrected me. Faron...See MoreHey...we're more humid today than...
Comments (11)YIKES you guys!! Uffda...just looked at our 3pm reading in Fargo... 96deg and 74deg dew-point. So we have the exact same conditions now today as Baton Rouge! I couldn't take your summers down there! Give me -30 and snow....ANYDAY! Natal- Yeah...I'm SERIOUSLY glad this is a one-day thing. I like looking this particular NWS interactive page. Move your mouse over the categories at left, and you can see the colored areas change. Kind of a neat visual for a region! You can go ahead in time to see predictive categories too. Check out the yellow/red "Steam splume" that extends all the way to Canada, when your mouse is placed on "Dewpoint". Then you can see the colors change on the map. Then move mouse over the 11am/2pm/5pm times and see those changes. See...I AM a "Hot" geek today...! Faron Here is a link that might be useful: The NWS...See MoreWho wants to visit Fargo tonite?!?!?!
Comments (15)Caroleoh, I've only seen half of one 5-0 episode, where one cop had a bomb locked around his neck. All the MNF ya know...plus, I work every Mon. from 12-9, getting home ~ 9:15pm usually. Yeah, I was diggin' the scenery for sure! Goldy & all... Just heard on the radio here that all the people in that mess on I-94 just west of Fargo have now all been removed from the scene and are safe! Some had spent 8 HOURS at the scene!! Visibility was SO bad that snowmobiles had to ride shotgun to vehicles holding the people, to guide them into West-Fargo...Yikes! Can't wait for "Round 2" Friday aft.!! Lucky me too...I have to work @ 8am!! Gonna get up ~6:15 and snowblow the driveway to make a path for myself...Uffda. My DW has Friday off.....arrrrrggghh! Not that anyone will get to the store........ Faron...See MoreWarmer fall good for establishing trees?
Comments (25)I think I too would enjoy those higher wet forests, Mike. Although western red cedar is one of my faves, those atolls must be almost indescribably beautiful. My one son, the same guy that spent some time On POW Island, also lived in a town near Olympia for a while and he has recounted many stories of much magnificence in that area. We hope to visit some day. What I find amazing is the overwhelming similarity of "old growth" areas even though they be separated by a thousand miles. Heck, right in my own woods, deep in the swamp area, there are numerous springs with water gurggling all winter long, which is saying something in a place with as cold of winters as we get here. There is almost no "ground" to speak of, only hummocks of old rotted logs and stumps and root systems of still-living trees. There are northern white cedar tipped horizontally by the wind, which, having still a bit of root attachment to terra firma, now have a series of "trees" growing skyward, each one a former branch. There are very large paper birch, much larger than they ever become in suburbia, which, having sprouted right tight against one of the cedars, now continue to grow as a double unit, the trunks of one actually growing around and encapsulating the other. You just don't see stuff like that unless it's been left alone for a long time. Now what was this thread about, lol? +om ps.............oh, and my apologies to Resin and any other sticklers for proper nomenclature. I'm in that camp myself, but "cedar" is all you'll ever hear anyone, including pro foresters call the Thuja growing here. No, I'm not talking about formal report writing, etc. Just general speech....everybody calls Thuja occidentalis "cedar" around these parts. And while I knew many decades ago that that was not proper, if the purpose of language is to communicate with another individual or group, that's the word that's going to get used, exceptions noted....See MoreFaron79
