Put this on your watch list! 'The Bikeriders' shows the life of motorcycle clubs before things changed. with Double Windsor Clothing Company

Motorcycle clubs are exactly that: a group of people who just enjoy driving motorcycles. In the 1960s that was a common thing to see. Just guys that rode their bikes and found comradery in each other’s company and talking about motorcycles. Sometimes they didn’t have the best intentions but were...

Brev, catch the riz this guy puts off. with Decorah Rental & Sales Inc.

Language is always changing as the decades go by. We all know the slang terms we used as kids and that they could change at times. Nowadays it seems like it changes more often since we are so connected as a world thanks to social media. And while some businesses latch onto some phrases and […]

"I know Kung-Fu ..." with Decorah Rental & Sales Inc.

FOOTBALL!!! Yes, college football had its big 2024 debut this weekend! While some were cooking out for the holiday others were tailgating for the first time this year.

Netflix's Wyatt Earp and the Cowboy War gives you the true story of the legendary gunman and how important his story is to American history and business. with Double Windsor Clothing Company

“I’ll be your huckleberry.” … “You tell ’em I’m coming! And Hell’s coming with me!” … You know you’ve said it and thought you were super cool. Maybe you’ve said quotes from the hit 1993 movie Tombstone starring Kurt Russel and Val Kilmer when the situation called for it or ju...

Meanwhile, your kid can't avoid the ONE rock in the middle of the yard with their bicycle! with Decorah Rental & Sales Inc.

Jackpot on Amazon Prime is good enough to be in theaters. with Double Windsor Clothing Company

In the 1980s there were a slew of action films where the survival of the main character was based on how well they could survive a string of extreme instances. Most of them starred Arnold, Sly, Van Damme, or Norris showing off their skills or muscles. One of the more thought-provoking ones was The R...

Something to think about when you go out to eat. with Decorah Rental & Sales Inc.

I’ve never heard of something like this happening. I don’t think it’s a very frequent thing, but worth talking about. A family went a restaurant and their child was given cooking wine instead of apple juice due to a mislabeled package. It’s a good lesson to maybe double check what your child...

This business just Donkey Konged this guy. with Decorah Rental & Sales Inc.

Who put a quarter in this guy? He thought he was being a good guy by calling an arcade and shaming them for not having a women’s bathroom. Plot twist! They do have a women’s bathroom! Maybe the woman should have asked to have it pointed out to her.
