Sod sees a bad moon arisin?.
2008-02-22 20:07:00 After Tuesday’s thrashing in Wisconsin and Hawaii, some might be wondering what Hillary Clinton’s plans are now for how she can possibly still win the Democratic nomination for President. Me, I don’t have any idea, but I do know what her plan was from three weeks ago. The Clinton camp hopes to stop the Obama bandwagon ... More About: Politics , Moon , Sees
Growing Up Nate: Stuck in a Hopper
2008-02-22 17:54:00 My little sister, Anna and I grew up on my great-grandfather’s farmstead, which meant that, until I was a teenager, we had various rotting outbuildings dotting our property, and to this very day a cavalcade of old farm implements parked here and there. In the woods behind our house, there was an old John Deere ... More About: Growing , Growing Up , Nate
Sod?s freezing his teets off.
2008-02-20 22:31:00 I am so freaking tired of this weather. Those of you who are privileged enough to not live in this godforsaken frozen desolate wasteland can never truly appreciate just how lucky you are. North Dakota is a fine state, and I enjoy living here, but despite that I’m not so stupid as to ignore the truth ...

Sod Is Confused By Valentine?s Day
2008-02-15 01:53:00 So, today is Valentine ’s Day. I hope you’re all wearing red, because if you’re not and someone calls you on it, they get to pinch you mercilessly.

Sod?s Funny Valentine.
2008-02-14 22:54:00 Believe it or not, it’s not always a barrel full of kittens being married to me. When it comes to food, I have the temperance of a three-year-old.

2008-02-13 23:29:00 There were two sets of brothers that made up the core of our group. The Stoners; a set of twins, Carey and Corey and their older brother, Brandon, who everyone simply called “Bubba.” He may have even signed his name that way, for all I know.

New lessons in the NBA?
2008-02-13 07:46:00 Perhaps not lessons. Well, I guess the Chicago Bulls should have learned a lesson in trading away Tyson Chandler, I suppose that they could’ve never forseen the player that Tyson Chandler blossomed into, but in my NBA Live season, he averages 20.3 ppg and 12 rebounds, nothing to sniff at. In reality I think he’s ... More About: Lessons

Sod Does Miss Mitt, After All
2008-02-09 01:33:00 Especially after I saw this headline on Slate.com. There was so much promise for a man with a first name like that. Here’s a few I came up with: “Up Mitt Creek” “Un-Mitt-igated Disaster” “Mitt Sandwich” “Big, Steaming Pile of Mitt” and my personal favorite, “Mitt Happens” Yes, there were so many unrealized opportunities with a candidate like Mitt.

Sod just watches for the ads.
2008-02-07 21:40:00 I can’t say for certain, but I’m told there was a Super Bowl on Sunday that involved one team prevailing over the other. I wouldn’t know. I prefer billiards. But in years past, I have made a habit of watching this so-called “football game” for the sake of the advertisements. But now, thanks to this ... More About: Media , Watches , Advertising

What I Learned From Super Tuesday
2008-02-06 21:05:00 Like many of you, I arrived home from work last night, flicked my TV to CNN/MSNBC/FOX NEWS/PBS and let the results of 22 primaries and caucuses wash over me like lukewarm pea soup. My head is still spinning. Here’s what I learned… Obama won the delegate count, won more states by a larger margin and closed the margin ...

I?m Soooooo Old!
2008-02-05 19:49:00 It’s not me… I’ve gotten old.
