1. Don’t Change the Overtime Rules Just to Save Drivers From Themselves. There aren’t many sporting events of any kind that got to five overtimes. College football is one that comes to mind, but the NCAA changed the rules not long ago to prevent it from happening as often. Baseball games can stretch on quite a bit into extra innings and the occasional NHL playoff game will reach legendary lengths.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022.
