Getting snow right now. Could get up to a foot but the ground is pretty warm so it shouldn't accumulate that much. I hope not because my wife and her sister are driving home from Detroit.

Woohoo just got a dusting of snow overnight, looking forward to relaxing all day. Rooting for the Bucs to win, local comic shop is betting the Chiefs will win so if they lose its 50% off everything in the store. Would be nice to complete my star trek comic collection.

You obviously mean rugby football, Roger. It's good to know that you'll be staying in to watch Ireland v Wales this afternoon (or morning for you)!

I'm staying up late watching dirt bike supercross races tonight. I've really gotten into them this year. I'm excited about spring so I can get back out again on mine. I'm about due for a newer bike. Might even go with a smaller one. I'm looking at Kawasaki KLX 140. I like a lighter bike on the trails. I always have but especially now that I'm 60 and would have a tougher time pulling it out if it was stuck in the mud.

Doubled the snowfall this season with the storm over the weekend. Got 6.5 inches since Saturday night, most of it fell that night. Wish we would have gotten this around Christmas. The new tires on my car worked great in the snow, had no issues getting around Sunday.

That is so interesting Hoss. History is an unusual thing. It is always written by people in power and/or changed by them. That is why when I was a kid cowboys were portrayed as heros. Today, they are looked on by liberals as evil, hateful, murdering, rapists and racists. The truth..... as they say.....is usually somewhere in the middle. They weren't all good and they weren't all bad. Most of them were a little of both. Most people have a good and bad nature....devil on a shoulder and angel on the other.

A episode of the current season of the UK TV show QI put forward the following: When the Vikings invaded in the 11th century, English women found them attractive because they washed more often than the native British men. The Vikings tended to come without women, so they married English women, upsetting the locals. One monk, John of Wallingford, claimed that Danes cheated by washing. He wrote: "The Danes made themselves too acceptable to English women by their elegant manners and their care of their person. They combed their hair daily and took a bath every Saturday, and even changed their clothes frequently, be which means they undermined the chastity of the wives." Thus there is a theory that all of that stories about Vikings raping and pillaging were written by Englishmen whose wives were taken by more attractive Danes. I must remember to have a bath on Saturday to make myself irresistible to women.

They were probably like the Leftists today. You know, guns and weapons are bad and only savages use those things. We're in a civilized society. Then they were easily beaten down!

I'm just glad the Packers lost. Makes me happy knowing one certain sob is miserable about them losing. Can't believe the call to go for a field goal instead of a touchdown though, wtf was that coach thinking.

Got another 4.5 inches of snow Thursday night into Friday morning bringing the total in 6 days to 11 inches. Expecting another 2-4 tonight then possibly few more inches Tuesday morning, then right now the forecasters are calling next Saturday "one to watch" which means it could dump several inches of snow or just one inch. My back is screaming from all the shoveling I've been doing.
