Looks like you don't have to worry about fracking coming to a halt. Apparently there are a few common sense people left, even if there aren't any in the EPA. http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/342386/

I understand that there is a measure on the ballot in ND next year to eliminate all property tax and have the Legislature replace the funds to local governments from the general fund. Presumably this money would be replaced with oil money. It seems to me that ND state government has done a good job of saving the money coming in I wish that asshat Dayton here in Minnesota would take a lesson. Our property taxes are going up because Dayton wouldn't give in during the government shut down last summer when the GOP wanted to cut spending rather then raise taxes. Dayton insisted on ending the Homestead exemption, which basically lowered your property taxes on your primary residence here.

Thanks WiSioux. Appreciate all the posts.

So what happened?

That's good, but unfortunately they are needed this year.

Just ignore him. You're doing an excellent job.

Things aren't looking so bad now. Dell sounds awesome tonight.

Same story, different night. Sorry for sounding negative, I just was hoping UND would come out with all guns blazing.

I was just thinking the same thing. They have to show more life tonight than they did last night, or what the football team did this afternoon.

Give me Ben Blood

Yea, let them go after Ben and get him stirred up. We all know he won't take it. Probably motivate him even more.

We all remember the boom in the late 70's too. After things went bust, it took almost 20 years to recover. While I don't expect things to go south like they did 30 years ago, I don't believe in the rosy forecasts that some people are making either. I highly doubt Williston will get anywhere near 50,000 people. They couldn't even get over 15,000 in the last census, and yes I know things have changed a lot in the last year.

Knight for Friday.

Actually, you had Lammy for the second round and he didn't score. So much for me trying to help out. SFB is much better at dealing with this and I'm going to let the expert figure it out. Sorry.

Never look a Gift Horse in the mouth.

I can't understand why people seem so confused this year about how the game works. You didn't pick anyone in Round 1, so you can't jump in during Round 2, which was Saturday nights game when you selected Nelson. I was allowed back in because I had Kristo Friday night and had Nelson Saturday night, but I was inadvertently overlooked. I'm just not sure why so many people miss the beginning of the game when it comes to picking? (Not trying to upstage you SFB, I just figured you were getting overworked)

SiouxForever, you are more than forgiven. You do so much for this game and it really helps keep interest in UND hockey at a higher level. I'm going to hold off until later in the week with my pick. Now watch me forget and get DQ'd for real. LOL

Come on SiouxForever, here's my pick. You know I'd never forget to make a pick. (you have me listed as DQ'd for not picking)

I looked at the rules, everyone advances as if they player scored, which means you can't reuse the pick, nor can you change the pick once it's made. Sorry guys.

Hey, I always thought picks couldn't be reused, even if everyone advances. Am I wrong?

Looks like we all move on. Nelson for Saturday. (Thanks SiouxForever, you do a great job).

I would think he'd only see limited ice time tonight. He's new, he's young, and he's coming off an injury. That said, I think this is the perfect game to get some playing time in.

Correct word is "Alumnus". An Alumni is plural

Kristo

Good job on updates guys. Love the job you do.
