    FindJodi is learning new details about the recent search in Winsted, Minnesota, in connection with a tip on the Jodi Huisentruit case. Winsted Police Chief Justin Heldt confirmed to FindJodi’s Caroline Lowe no human remains were found during the October 18th search of a site in his city and that some farm animal remains were recovered. He noted that it’s not unusual to find animal bones in a rural area like Winsted.

    When I open my toolbox, I still notice the Stanley logo on some of the screwdrivers. Growing up, the word Stanley represented not only tools, but those hammertone green products like the indestructible thermos. Remember the one? But in 2020 things would change drastically for the company all thanks to the 40-ounce cup you see everyone in stores and online. Stanley has been around forever, 110 years to be exact. And they were clipping along just fine at $70 million/year in revenue.

    My Dad always told me I’d need glasses around age 42. I took that to mean if I didn’t by the time I made it to that age, I’d never need them!

I just recently had my first eye exam. It’s all very new.

    I admit, I find myself down the rabbit hole on TikTok and Instagram more often than I’d like. It’s like a vacuum sucking up the dog hair from the couch in our condo. Except, the dog hair is my free time and overall attention span. But thanks to my wife Tara sending me this travel hack from lawyer Erica Kullberg, I learned about Delta Airlines ‘Bags on Time’ Guarantee.
