Rock Mitchell: My worst enemy dwells in my car
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-worst-enemy-dwells-in-my-car.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, August 23, 2009. My worst enemy dwells in my car. My greatest enemy is not the state's safety and emissions test (but it is a close second, since it has conquered me and my car every year for the past three years). And my greatest fear is not fear itself; as much as Mandela suggests. My greatest enemy and my greatest fear is actually the spider. She yelled, pointing at the dash above my steering wheel. I've been driving on pins and needles ever since, not sure wh...

Rock Mitchell: Anything can happen at Walmart
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/09/anything-can-happen-at-walmart.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, September 27, 2009. Anything can happen at Walmart. If my printer were a vehicle, it would be a big-ol' SUV. It seems like it slurps up about a cartridge of ink for every 10 pages of print. For that reason, I stopped by Walmart the other day for a new ink cartridge. I had to nod repeatedly and slowly walk backwards until the lady forgot she was talking to me. Certainly crazier things have happened at Wally's Mart, though. When I was a teen, my younger brother...

Rock Mitchell: April 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Saturday, April 25, 2009. I'd rather not tweet. It's hard to keep up with the latest, coolest thing. For instance, we still don't have a bagless vacuum or a toaster that fits bagels. I also didn't have a Twitter account, until just last week. I don't really know why I registered for one. I guess I just thought that someday I may use it, so it would be a good idea to nail down the user name I wanted before it got taken. Didn't sleep in today. Instead I got up early so...

Rock Mitchell: October 2009
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, October 25, 2009. That'll do it, folks. Alright, I'll break the silence. I know it's been a couple weeks since my last post, and I assume you all know what's coming: I'm done. It's been a heck of ride, writing columns here on rockmitchell.blogspot.com. Funny columns, stupid columns, confusing columns, offensive columns. Now it's time for the last type of column: the terminating column. The clincher. The closer. Well, I've written what I've wanted to write on this...

Rock Mitchell: Things we shouldn't give up when we grow up
http://rockmitchell.blogspot.com/2009/08/things-we-shouldnt-give-up-when-we-grow.html
Observation, experience, opinion. Sunday, August 2, 2009. Things we shouldn't give up when we grow up. I sat through a city council meeting a little while ago, I was on assignment for my job. In such a meeting, or most any kind of meeting, it doesn't take long to realize that some people can be very boring. Stay cool, Dean. work sucks but you don't! Or "You should have used up more sick days! But it seems only former presidents. Can nap on the job. 3 Show and tell. It would really improve employee re...

The Casual Outdoorsman: Summer is Done
http://casualoutdoorsman.blogspot.com/2008/09/summer-is-done.html
Access to everything outside for the casual outdoorsman. Monday, September 1, 2008. Well I sit here today at my desk thinking about the last four months. I like to go through my pictures from time to time and remember the good times. But this morning as I was going through my files I realized that my summer is officially over today. I start up with classes tomorrow and my free time will be very limited. You should not be so worried about Ty kicking your tail. September 1, 2008 at 7:01 PM. Ok, so I've tho...

The Casual Outdoorsman: My Adventures Wish List
http://casualoutdoorsman.blogspot.com/2008/08/it-was-another-hot-summer-night-and-i.html
Access to everything outside for the casual outdoorsman. Tuesday, August 5, 2008. My Adventures Wish List. It was another hot summer night and I caught myself day dreaming about places that I would like to visit. With my recent romp in the Bronx. I love green, I love the mountains, and I love to fish. Ever since I was about ten and I saw the movie A River Runs Through It. I know what you are thinking; what could Canada possibly have to offer besides a cool picture with a Mountie. Well, without doing any ...

The Casual Outdoorsman: Alaska '09
http://casualoutdoorsman.blogspot.com/2008/10/alaska-09.html
Access to everything outside for the casual outdoorsman. Sunday, October 5, 2008. Seriously, school is the outdoorsman's worst enemy. I can honestly say that I have not been able to get out one time in the last month. But I just wanted to update a little from my top five list of places I would want to visi. I think it has to be warm to be classified as a beach. October 5, 2008 at 9:46 AM. You're going to have a blast. I can't wait to see the pics and hear some good stories. Watch out for bears.

The Casual Outdoorsman: July 2008
http://casualoutdoorsman.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Access to everything outside for the casual outdoorsman. Saturday, July 26, 2008. Nueva York: It's a jungle out there. So I may have to wander a little from the main idea of this site during this post, but trust me this was as great an "outdoor" adventure as I have ever had. On TNT played 24/7? But when you make it up to the first train platform and look out over the city you realize that it is not just Hollywood exaggerating the truth. It is for real. Rode the transit system, a lot. Rode the Staten Isla...

The Casual Outdoorsman: November 2008
http://casualoutdoorsman.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Access to everything outside for the casual outdoorsman. Sunday, November 30, 2008. It is really easy to get stressed out with school and work, and for me this climaxes in November. This year, I found the answer to my problem. Take a week off and do absolutely nothing. Billy (dad), Ty (brother), Mike (brother-in-law), Jerry, Ryan, and I met up in Garden City at the Drees Farm on Saturday ready for a great week of hunting. We hunted three full days and saw a lot of country. Then next day we went out with ...
