  1. Just a clarification. Benson county went to voting by mail, something I disapprove of by the way. All residents of the county had the choice of voting by mail or voting in person at the county seat.

    Treating everyone equally is bad now.

    I did not hear you complaining though.

  2. Owners NO...MANAGER (DAVE NORMAN) YES!

    side note....apparently there are a few places in Fargo that are looking for him and his CAR :silly:

    Owners also since they were dumb enough to get in bed with Morman.

  3. The new owners could of gotten the Ralph closed they were that inept.

    Understatement of the year. Norman was in the kitchen yelling at the lady in charge about being out of things. She told him to pay the bills and she could order stuff.

  4. I believe at the time they did

    So to take it away let the people vote

    what's your interest in this ?

    What you believe is wrong. The people have voted for the council members who made the decision it is called representation. My interest is no different than yours. If you are so concerned about letting people vote where were you when Benson County closed the polling location on Spirit Lake?

  5. both Tribes was the mistake - & the fact they over looked that the one had given us prior approval & were being held hostage by their current council

    & the SBOHE wanted it done too soon because of the stupid Summit League & they hired Kelly & Faison to shove that down our throats

    ALL THIS HAS BEEN SAID BEFORE

    Who are you people ? ? ?

    What is your purpose / goal here ?

    The problem is the people you say gave approval had no authority to give approval.

  6. In June 2006 the ND Board of higher education voted 8-0 to authorize a lawsuit challenging the NCAA's position on the Fighting Sioux nickname. They made it clear that this would be funded exclusively with donated funds. Many of us responded--$885,000 was raised.

    Rather than supporting the lawsuit, or even the settlement agreement, the board made a 180 degree switch in their position--totally betraying those who, in good faith, contributed to the lawsuit THEY authorized.

    To cap it off, the board president testifies before the senate committee that the nickname bill should be defeated, claiming that THE STATE has already spent over $800,000 litigating this issue.

    I'm not sure that dissolving the SBoHE is a good idea. Recent actions of the current board, however, have been disgraceful. Donors to the litigation fund have every reason to be outraged by the board's betrayal, and all of us should be concerned about the board president's misleading testimony.

    Disgraceful only because you did not get your way. If they had gone the other way you would be singing their praises. Why are all of you not calling for the AG's head, he made the deal you hate.

  7. Next time I'm hungrry for Italian food on a tuesday night, I will just hop on my private jet and blast off to one of these destinations.

    Looks like GF and Olive Garden will "have to do" for me. :D

    You spend your money watching hockey and I spend mine traveling around. Did you check out their menus even?

  8. Its close but I think it passes. There is a lot there available for sale (I believe) so that's the buffer. But in other words I guess that restaurant couldn't have a liquor license. stupid.

    Where as Olive Garden and Grizzly's would be back to back.

    lomackman is a troll with a -91 reputation please don't feed him.

    Unless it is real Italian or Mexican instead of the garbage around here that passes for it.

  9. Gseppies (sp?) in Grand Forks Downtown by bonzers is an awesome italien place. Kinda of expensive but u get enuf for two people in one plate.\\

    Crappy hours tho. i think its only 5-9 tues-sat

    Actually they pretty much suck.

  10. If you don't want the schools to be susceptible to politics then privatizr them. Otherwise, they are the peoples institutions and should be directly accountable to the representatives of the people.

    Is this the way you spell in your blog?

  11. Leave the unrelated politics out of this forum, please.

    Read the sayanythingblog and then say to keep politics out of it. Heck that is what this thread is about. If the BOHE had gone the way you people wanted them to you would be singing their praises.

  12. They are women that have something to say, just because you might disagree with them does not matter. Sarah Palin has power and influence. She has supporters so yes she should be listened to. I suppose you think Obama should be listened to? You should and then use your own mind to decide what you want to believe, either Obama or Palin. Personally I think they are both idiots.

    Palin's power and influence is only over the people that are so simple minded they may belong in a group home.

  13. For what it's worth, House Majority Leader Al Carlson has introduced a constitutional amendment to reform the board and make it accountable to the governor.

    I wrote about it here:

    http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/north-dakota-house-considers-constitutional-amendment-to-abolish-board-of-higher-education/

    I would suggest contacting your legislators and telling them to support it.

    You are also the kind of person who thinks Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, and Sharron Angle are women with something to say and should be listened to.

  14. How can you say in one sentence you don't see the attraction and then the next that you've never tried it??? I'm not saying it's good or bad, but to have an opinion you better have tried it.

    As if I have not heard people whining for years about getting an Olive Garden. I do not need to eat mass produced Italian food to know that it is garbage. If I am going to eat Italian food this is where I will eat.

    Do these look anything like mass produced versions of Italian food to you? I am not a chain restaurant eater at all. For a real nice dinner here is my favorite (just ate there last Tuesday night in fact) http://www.rosemarysrestaurant.com/

    Simply, I am a snob when it comes to dining.

  15. aren't space aliens and texas roadhouse within 300 feet of each other?

    I was wondering the same thing. I suppose it has something to do with how the 300 feet is measured. Like the City Council will not change the ordinance? Denying Olive Garden a license would get their heads chopped off. Though myself I do not see the attraction of Olive Garden. Never ate at one and never will eat at one.

  16. My family and I made it back to GF for homecoming last year. We had not been back since before the flood. I spent most of the 80's and part of the 90's knocking em back at whiteys. We where pretty disappointed with the two meals we had at whiteys during the visit. The food wasn't very good, and the service was terrible. In part, I blame the magnetic flux lines emanating from the horseshoe bar. They installed the bar 90 degrees out of alignment after the flood, and the entire universe has been screwed up ever since.

    I hope they reopen whiteys, but they need to go back to the old menu and of course, rotate the bar if they want to succeed.

    Going back to the old menu will not fix what was wrong.

  17. that's quite funny because if anyone in this debate is worthy of the title "the third Reich" I think it would be the ncaa, wouldn't it?

    I don't know maybe I'm a little slow but I think of words like;

    arrogance, superior, conceded, dictating will onto others, irrational, power hungry, when I think of the third reich.

    sounds a whole hell of a lot like the n c double a to me?

    only difference is they're not taking away our lives, they are just taking away our passion.

    I live to feel passion. so in my book they're closer to the same thing than 1 might think.

    So this day I declare for all sioux fans across the world that's the n c double a is the fourth Reich!

    Sounds like how Ralph operated with his extortion letter to UND.

  18. Source?

    Man you are a d-bag.

    I don't know but maybe a couple of birthday parties in Hitler's honor and his wonderful collection of Nazi gear aka "the War Room"? T-shirts that said Europen Tour 39-45? A d-bag would be someone who has birthday parties in honor of Adolph Hitler or anyone who would worship such a man who would have these parties.
