Brett

What’s up? My name is Brett and I am currently a website administrator, board operator, and on-air for HOT 975. I am a Veteran of the Iraq war; I served 6 years of active duty in the US Army Infantry. I have my Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice and am currently working towards my Bachelor’s at United Tribes Technical College. After graduation I plan on working in probations or with a Federal Law Enforcement job. I am usually out and about around Bismarck-Mandan with my family shopping at the mall or living the “night life” at the local watering hole. If you are wondering why this former grunt with a criminal justice degree is working here, it’s because Mia saw talent and offered me a job.

There’s No Friend Like a Battle Buddy

During my time in the Army, I got to know some really good guys. They were all sons, fathers, brothers, uncles, but most of all, best friends. I read a saying, "You never have friends like the ones you made during war."

Back in Session

It’s that time again; time to get back to school. Classes are back in full swing for me and for my kids. I enjoyed the short break but now it’s back to business.

A Case of the Wednesdays

The morning started off perfect. I had the kids up, they weren’t grouchy, and they got ready in a hurry. I even had time to bake them some cinnamon rolls.

Where to Party in Bismarck-Mandan for New Year’s Eve

Looking for a place to celebrate the New Year? We know everyone needs a game plan as to where they want to ring in the new year! Here is a list of a few bars that will be throwing a New Years Party!

Get Medieval

Remember that wild, crazy, and outrageous day that we had in June at the Huff Hills? Me neither, but they are bringing it back July 6th, 2013 with Medieval Rush at the Missouri Valley Fairgrounds!

The Test Killer

Finals week is upon most of us and I have already knocked out all the tests that I had with my last FINAL OF THE YEAR today at 3pm!

Fallen Soldiers Laid/Being Laid to Rest

Services for Sgt. 1st Class Darren M. Linde, 41, of Devils Lake, N.D., were held Tuesday afternoon in Sidney, Mont., where he grew up. The funeral for Spc. Tyler J. Orgaard, 20, of Bismarck, will be held Thursday.

Drinking and Driving Isn’t The Way To Go

Recently, I had a friend that was in a bad car accident. The driver of the car that hit her was driving drunk.

Final Crams

Finals week is fast approaching, and I’m sure a lot of you, like me, are cramming 4 ½ months of information into a few short days or preparing for these dreaded tests.
