Disappointed to see Bo is keeping Feland on. I felt he needed to go as well. I hope that changes. https://www.grandforksherald.com/news/government-and-politics/6540948-Bochenski-begins-process-of-molding-style-staff-at-City-Hall
should've replaced him the terry bjerke...then we would see some changes.

There’s been plenty of documented outbreaks in confined or enclosed spaces. Outdoors not so much, except Mardi Gras, but they weren’t wearing masks and that also consisted of a number of bars and clubs that are indoors.
Are you implying that minority health issues do not correlate with systemic racism?
"minority" health issues make as much sense as the phrase "social" justice

Thats Antifa? Just because some loonies are acting as security doesn’t mean that they are the leaders.

Sigh... he's the best player on his team and one of the best players in all of college football and he called out his coach for supporting an openly racist organization (OAN). He's certainly not a "soft kid" by any stretch of the imagination.
in about 20 years that young man will look back at this and wonder why did i ever listen to don lemon

Tis’ a meme. Back in the Bush Jr. days the Heritage Foundation decided that US citizens weren’t actually in poverty because they weren’t living in mud huts with no running water or electricity. That led to a later graphic on Fox News showing that 99% of “poor” (quotation marks included!) households had a refrigerator. It has been widely used since then to illustrate the out of touch nature of Fox, but it is probably better applied to conservative think tanks.
you didn't answer my question

You missed avocado toast. Then you really would have hit the FoxNews/old people Facebook Bingo.
You’ll be telling us next that people can’t be poor and have a refrigerator.
when did i mention a fridge?

I can't find my original post about our offering twin brothers, Joe and Gus Hurlburt, from Enderlin. Sather offered both of them about a year ago right now. Joe has just received an offer from Colorado. When I first posted the stats on Joe, he was 6'9", 195. He is now listed at 6'10" and 220.
Joel was 6'6" and 170, he is now 6'8" and 190.
It would be great to land these guys but it may be difficult to do so.
if we get a chipotle now maybe we can land em!!!!!!!!!

I, however, don't look at the Millenials and Gen Z with derision. I look at the !@#$ sandwich that they've been handed and empathize with them. During their lives college became a commodity, something that you can't just pay off while working minimum wage jobs. They entered the job market during the Boomer and Gen X-fueled massive recession of 2008-2009 and the slow debt hangover recovery. Post-recession, they came into jobs with no security and ratty benefits. God forbid they had a health problem. Now the low end of the totem pole is being kicked in the groin again by a damn pandemic.
You have set up the basement-dwelling Millenial/Z as a strawman to make yourself feel better.
But you are right in some way. The US is no longer united. We have those that are empathetic towards others, and we have assholes.
sorry to tell you this but what america needs more of are assholes bc they don't give out participation trophies. it's really really really hard to to feel empathy for someone tweeting they can't afford their rent/mortgage from their iphone 20 s max, inside their 2019 Honda Passport, driving back from picking up pizza from a place that charges 28 bucks for a cheese pizza.

First thing I’d do is FIRE HAGA AND USE HIS SALARY TO hire a full time salaried city employee as a Business Recruiter to capitalize on the current state of the country. There are thousands of businesses around the country in California, NY, IL, CT, and best yet MN that are being gutted by their state and local governments and are chomping at the bit to move out, given the right opportunity. Call them ALL. Find out which of those companies would be a decent fit for GF and figure out some sort of benefitted offer for them to move their business to GF. Tax relief, discounted land, or whatever else would seem fit for each situation. God knows there’s an unlimited amount of Empty and open commercial real estate in Gf so that would give many of them a quick option for moving to GF if needed.
Even reaching out to every large and small drone company in the country would be a good idea, even if they’re not itching to move. Claim GF as the drone hub and they’ll be left behind not being here with the top talent and center of the industry.
Screw the good ole boys club that has drug GF down for the past decade and open some gates to get something flowing. Anything. If it’s going to compete with an existing business, then good! Create some competition.
I think the community has spoken by voting that old stagnant mayor out finally. Take some risks and create some excitement for once
GF has grown slower than the average US city (5% vs 6%) while Fargo, West Fargo, Bismarck, Mandan, Minot, Williston, Dickinson have all absolutely blown up over 15,20,30% in the same span. Jamestown is the only town over 10k that GF is growing faster than. WOOF
Obviously an oil boom is an outlier situation, but when you’re surrounded by other cities just launching with growth you should be seeing at least a little of that success which usually comes from successful neighbors. Yet, here’s GF seemingly going backwards. It’s actually depressing and sad to drive through that town with very little new sites other than shut down businesses that were just open on my last trip through. I’d love to see that turn around.
fixed ...please!

love how popovich and kerr spout off about kneeling in the nfl....iirc it is a fineable offense in the nba and are subject to suspension i think too...all started with chris jackson (mamoud abuld raouff)...david stern nipped it in the bud bc he knew it was bad for business. how about you clean your own house pop and stevie before talking about goodell's house.

so Mr INTHEKNOW....what's your beef with the city bus service? YOU'D never use it? of course you wouldn't - you don't need to! Take a day and go down and see and talk to the people that need to have a city bus service. If you can make the time - it will shine a light you don't know about right now. Experience it...and learn how other people live.
pretty sure if you crunch the numbers it would make more sense to offer uber/lyft credits to people that NEED the bus service instead of 99% empty buses running all over town advertising...with the flip side of the people that NEED it getting pickup at their front doors and dropped off at the front door of where they are going.

Forum going woke on us.
Apparently, this lady has been pulled over more than 12 times in two years and only due to the color of her skin. Did the reporter verify it with the police department or just let her say it and then believe it?
Her 6 year old has been bullied and beat up in Kindergarten.....once again, really? Its fuking Kindergarten in Bismarck...that is a 100% lie.
This is absurd.
don't click on it.

Just saw a clip of a "defund the police" person on CNN. She was asked about someone calling the police for a break-in at night. Her response was nothing but the question showed the hosts' privilege. No substantive answer.
Would Minneapolis actually defund the PD? What an absolute mess that would be, although it would be an interesting social experiment to witness from afar."
yes it will....
