Some of you have had some rather severe storms today, and this new event: TWC talking about ice across some of the south. They're calling ours a "wintry mix"...

Hi, I wouldn't call it a 'wintry mix,' I'd call it something I couldn't post here! and, yes, I still hate winter! Went in this AM at 6 and just got here. Did I mention I love overtime? But the downside is it cuts into my valuable drinking FReeping time... ;)

NY, agree on the .45 Auto as one of the best. Ever see Colt's .45/.22 conversion unit? Replaces the top half of the .45 and fires the .22LR. Cheap, and gives the recoil effect of the big cartridge. Bought one at the gunshop I worked at back in the day, the mid-'70's for $35 new, now they are over $300 for a real nice used one, and extra original mags go for $80+! Owch! Service was a nice touch!

In the 50's here with winds making it in the low 40's. I went out and got a wheelbarrow full of firewood and getting ready. I love my fireplace and when I get in my 'shack in the back' I will have my wood burring box stove.
