In Fargo, ND there is a jam packed used bookstore called BDS Books where I can wander for days. Lots of weird stuff. I picked up a high school year book, and page after page was annotated by a teacher, with notes about her students. She followed their lives. On this page with a picture of a basketball team, she wrote "These boys were in a car accident in Jamestown, ND, Aug-1961." The 19 year old apparently lost his life, the 20 year old his left arm. Page after page of these notes about students she taught. They were important to her. I should have bought it, but I now I dont think I could ever find it again in that cavernous place.

The usual beer with the usual guys and the usual snack on a usual Friday afternoon.
Cheers, #Fediverse.

I spent yesterday at the very first Northern Plains Indigenous Film Festival. The organizers are well in their way to bringing something very special and sorely needed to our community. It was interesting, humbling, educational and often funny to watch submitted works by local, national and Canadian filmmakers. I learned from stories and voices I had never heard before, from places I have never been before. Quite a few makers and actors traveled to the event, held at the historic #FargoTheatre. Well done, and thanks to all who made it happen. I can't wait for next years' fest.

At Rhombus Guys for #vegan veggie pizza again. Can't get enough.
We watched the movie #Fargo last night, in the packed Fargo Theater, with actor Peter Stormare who played the blonde killer Gaear Grimsrud. The movie is 30 years old, and the theater is celebrating 100 years. It was a fun night, and a great movie that still gets the job done.
Stormare is still a tough dude: the Swedish actor flew to Fargo from LA with a broken shoulder and foot.

7 inches so far. It just keeps coming. Super heavy, wet sticky stuff, affectionately known around here as heart attack snow.
