    NFR AI - How It Will Affect Jobs In The Next 5 years

    I don't use my phone to pay for anything but given that my bank has closed all branches within 2 hours of me I do use it to deposit checks and perform basic banking procedures. Is that something that I should also avoid doing?

    Just read that the M's are in the process of finalizing a deal to bring Josh Naylor back to Seattle for the next 5 years. Guess that makes a bit of a statement that is good to see. I'll bet there are a lot of guys in that clubhouse who are smiling right now.

    Fishing rocks! Here's a rod/reel/fish embedded in a Telecaster custom guitar body...

    I played lead in a band in school and have fished for the rest of my life and to me that thing is hideous. Just trying a little too hard to be edgy. A fine guitar is beautiful in its simplicity and that thing is butt ugly.

    Waders that will last me at least 5 seasons

    I've purchased a lot of waders over the past 50 years and the one constant, save for the initial experiences with breathable waders in their infancy, was that I almost always got what I paid for.

    Affordable places you would actually want to live

    I'm sure there are expensive ways to do it, especially in some of the larger metropolitan areas. The house I rented last year, 3 br with a guest cottage, AC and within sight of a great salmon river cost me less than $100 a day for three of us to stay there including utilities and linens...

    Baseball 2025

    The award is for most valuable player not all around best batter. The Yankees without Judge would still be the Yankees but the M's without Cal Raleigh would not have made it to the playoffs let alone come within a few outs of going to the World Series. Perhaps Cal is too humble.

    A pretty neat find

    I've been cleaning stuff out of my house thinking about a move to simplify my life and today crawled into the back of a closet in my fly tying room. There on a bottom shelf was this collection of flies tied by the inimitable Polly Rosborough of Chiloquin OR. The display was given to me by...
