Practical jokes are funny but BIG holes that swallow houses are NOT!As a Real Estate professional I have not had a client ask me about sink holes in any area that I have sold homes in. However it would not be a bad question to ask when shopping for a home. I know that some of the coal mining area

I have owned a dog(s) most of my adult life. Not a single one learned, or cared to learn, to catch a Frisbee. Baby only catches her treats about 40% of the time.I've had two dogs, Amos and Jack, who would fetch but not a Frisbee. Maybe if I started out with a little puppy and worked hard with it

Timmothy wrote the cartoon above about a month ago and I have been eager to post it with the June challenge brought forth by Kat Palmiotti called Artificial Intelligence at Home/Work .As a huge Si-fi fan I hope man never does create artificial intelligence. It never works out well... not even for

I am not sure if they make an automatic guinea pig feeder but I know they have been making automatic aquarium feeders for decades. BTW this is NOT my entry into the June challenge about AI, it just so happened to be Timmothy's cartoon for the Northern Sentry News paper today.Back when I owned a p

It's hard to believe Minot is just now launching a recycle program when the city I left 30 years ago was already doing it back then... better late than never??? I ask that with question marks because I have read and heard that recycling is NOT cost effective for most items anymore.Personally I ha
