We all know that the Marquis de Mores founded Medora (and named it after his wife), but did you know that the Marquis invented meatpacking?

- In just plane awesome news (GET IT?), the 5th Maintenance Squadron is spending their free time restoring warbirds. (Minot Daily News)
- And in an “everyone wins” kind of story, a 13-year-old in Bismarck kid baked donuts in exchange for donations to Brave the Shave. (KFYR TV)
- Also, someone just sent me a video of a guy making fun of how cold it is in Fargo, but it doesn’t seem like the weather really stops anyone from doing anything. (KVRR)
