Gary – that looks like a cream sauce on your lutefisk so you must be Swedish.

Gary….they say the same thing about Swedes… That basically, they’re much like Norwegians…just been simplified. Per

My comment on this is about the distracted driving. I work in a 911 call center and you cannot believe the number of calls about (suspected) impaired drivers. Had one a while back where the vehicle was “all over the road”. The vehicle was located and stopped. Driver said oh I was watching a movie on my laptop. And the other thing that fries my bacon is people walking around in stores with shopping carts and yakking on their cell phones. If you need to make or receive a cell call while shopping please move to a spot where you won’t block the entire aisle. And if you find something in your cart you did not intend to purchase maybe you should pay more attention to your shopping and you might notice the person walking by you adding items to your cart

I just wanted to let Grant know that “Swedish Meatballs” is actually a Norwegian recipe that has been simplified!!

Read with interest that the SD Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is sold out. Went to it last year because old high school friend Jim Groth was inducted. It was such great fun, loved the music of course!! Kids today are missing out on all that fun and those bands playing in Armorys or dance halls around the region. Didn’t even think about it being that time of year again. I have to admit I rarely listen to the radio anymore so wouldn’t hear any promotions for it.. Use that IPad plugged into the car don’t you know.

When you want to listen to “real” radio…and not some syndicated crap or a local station employing a program director with no touch of reality or community….then you’ve got to listen to Grant!! It’s radio the way we all remember, and quite frankly the way it ought to be! Too many stations are bringing in some homogenized, pasturized, watered down program from New York City, or worse yet, Los Angeles via satellite. Grant plays records from local artists! He brings on guests of interest to Brookings and the surrounding area. You can count on one hand the number of stations that actually do that! One of the highlights, is that he is Norwegian to the bone. Grant knows that a diet of lutefisk and lefse helps build strong bones and bodies at least 12 ways. If you don’t live in Brookings, listen to his show on your computer! Grant is what’s right with the world!

I worked briefly at KBRK with Grant in the summer of 1990. Quite the character.

Driving west on 26th street yesterday around 1:00 p.m. across the 229 Interstate bridge and traffic was backed up for blocks. There was a police officer in the far right lane and he started to slow way down backing up his lane even more. I quickly caught up to him and was side by side wondering why he was driving so slow all of a sudden. I thought maybe he was running the plates of the car in front of him. But, no…he was texting on his phone.

I ride motorcycle and see way to many people distracted by these devices. It amazes me how many people leave the parking lot after work and have to be immediately on their devices will driving. What did they do before these devices? I think our trusted legislators and representatives missed the boat by not passing a electronic device useage law this past session. What is it going to take?
