  3. In Fargo, ND there is a jam packed used bookstore called BDS Books where I can wander for days. Lots of weird stuff. I picked up a high school year book, and page after page was annotated by a teacher, with notes about her students. She followed their lives. On this page with a picture of a basketball team, she wrote "These boys were in a car accident in Jamestown, ND, Aug-1961." The 19 year old apparently lost his life, the 20 year old his left arm. Page after page of these notes about students she taught. They were important to her. I should have bought it, but I now I dont think I could ever find it again in that cavernous place.

  5. I spent yesterday at the very first Northern Plains Indigenous Film Festival. The organizers are well in their way to bringing something very special and sorely needed to our community. It was interesting, humbling, educational and often funny to watch submitted works by local, national and Canadian filmmakers. I learned from stories and voices I had never heard before, from places I have never been before. Quite a few makers and actors traveled to the event, held at the historic #FargoTheatre. Well done, and thanks to all who made it happen. I can't wait for next years' fest.

  7. We watched the movie #Fargo last night, in the packed Fargo Theater, with actor Peter Stormare who played the blonde killer Gaear Grimsrud. The movie is 30 years old, and the theater is celebrating 100 years. It was a fun night, and a great movie that still gets the job done.
    Stormare is still a tough dude: the Swedish actor flew to Fargo from LA with a broken shoulder and foot.

  11. 7 inches so far. It just keeps coming. Super heavy, wet sticky stuff, affectionately known around here as heart attack snow.

  13. To shovel, or not to shovel — that is the question:
    Whether 'tis nobler in the back to suffer
    The slips and tumbles of outrageous winter,
    Or to take arms against a driveway of snow
    And by shoveling, clear it. To wait — to melt,
    No more; and by a melt to say we end
    The aching lumbar and the thousand frozen shocks
    That driveways are heir to: 'tis a consummation
    Devoutly to be wish'd. To wait, to melt;
    To melt, perchance by Tuesday — ay, there's the rub:
    For in that wait, what neighbors might then come
    When we have shuffled past in our pajamas,
    Must give us pause. There's the embarrassment
    That makes a spectacle of so long a driveway.
    For who would bear the scrape and grunt of toil,
    The frozen shovel, the numb and mittened hands,
    The pangs of a pulled muscle, the cold's delay,
    The insolence of a second storm on Thursday,
    And the sneers of the neighbor who snowblows in minutes,
    When he himself might simply wait it out
    With a warm cup of coffee? Who would labor,
    To huff and puff beneath a leaden sky,
    But that the dread of something — say, the mailman,
    Or a mother-in-law who visits unannounced —
    Puzzles the will,
    And makes us rather bear the snow we have
    Than explain to others why we didn't shovel?
    Thus laziness doth make philosophers of us all,
    And thus the noble urge to go outside
    Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of forecast,
    And the Weather app, of great import and promise,
    With this regard doth send us back to bed
    And lose the name of action.

  15. #NoKings #protest #fargoNd

    Great turnout for our town. I estimate 3000+, very enthusiastic. No opposition to speak of to the protestors. Very peaceful, diverse, loud protest. Light police presence. A good day for everyone except Republicons.
