Missing ND Lottery Ticket Claimed

Looks like the ticket was turned in, but the winners chose to remain anonymous. A Bismarck man and woman stepped up to the counter at the North Dakota Lottery office on Friday to claim their Powerball prize. Finally.

Just Not Worth The Money

I was just reading an article on lasik eye surgery and I thought to myself, maybe I should have this done now that I can afford it. Then I thought, nope its not worth it. Wearing contacts is such a minor annoyance to me, that the cost of removing that annoyance from my life does […]

Sometimes with the amount of volume of “stuff” that crosses my desk I forget where I seen something when I post it and forget to give props back to the original author, or in this case the guy that showed me the content… At any rate, my friend Rob over at Stuffleufagus was the one […]

Weekend Ramblings – 02-09-08
