    Best sports un-retirement of the weekend.

    I at one time made a living on skis and did a lot of ski racing. Just running a downhill like that is a monumental task and to attempt it after 5 years off on a reconstructed titanium knee, let alone finishing on top, is hard for me to imagine. She is indeed one tough and driven lady.

    NFR Meathead is dead

    A lot of us grew up with his his wisdom and humor. It's a bit like losing a family member that we never were lucky enough to meet yet seemed to know really well. Speaks volumes that the leader of our great nation upon hearing of his tragic death immediately went on his social media platform and...

    Pretty harsh coming from someone who insists on fishing with a space age reel that doesn't make any noise.

    Annual favorite fish of the year thread.

    Would love to know what you do to wild caught black cod to make the suitable for sushi. Flash freezing or are you just rolling the dice and hoping for the best. It's my favorite PNW eating fish and I would really like to try it as nigiri but have been scared off by the research I have done.

    Annual favorite fish of the year thread.

    Do you freeze the sable fish before using it for sashimi? Wondering about parasites. In doing some research some say it is not safe even after freezing and yet it is a sushi staple in Japan. I've never had it raw but I imagine it would have the same smooth texture as hamachi.

    NFR Need a new down comforter, what's the best value?

    Bingo. Having spent a good deal of time in Norway I found that I couldn't be comfortable, especially with someone else, any other way. No one has their covers stolen or worse thrown on top of you.
