Woo-hoo!!! Another snow day. In all honest, OPM really had no choice: the greater Washington area is still very much shut down to the massive weekend snowstorm. And another one is set to hit us tomorrow afternoon, so I predict we'll be shut down on Wednesday also.

2 days in a row and another blast coming on Wednesday, maybe 12 + feet more.

And Obama wants to have the GOP over for health care tea and cookies to save his sinking butt.

YEA SURE !

I remember when Gingrich and the boys threatened to shut down the government back in the 90s. It took the maggots in the “media” about 30 seconds to find some liberal piggie whose “grandmother in Italy was dying”. Supposedly, the whole world was going to come to an end if he didn’t get his passport stamped. It’s a good thing grandma croaked before this storm hit.

Not rude, I hope she will give me at least one,
we were friends and both started our collections
at the same time. we had lots of fun working
on them and trying to come up with new items.
Also need to know what to do
for my collection should any thing happen to me.
We were having lunch last week and he had a stroke
at the table, we got him to hospital and thought
he would be ok, but he had several more and was gone.

Nice collection, not many Nagants which is what
I collect, but a nice M-42 swede Sniper with scope
and case, a Zouave, an FR-8, and all manner of mausers.
Will miss him calling me and saying , “Guess what
Iiiiii’ve got!!”.

Can you imagine the embarassment, the pain, the destruction of self esteem?

Can you imagine the suffering?

Can you imagine being a federal employee and being told you are not essential and not to report today?
