Well, we hope it won’t be, those experiences should be strictly limited, to say, oh, once.

For us it was 2002, we all still remember it all to well.

Snow is fine, ice is not.

Good Plan.

This is more normal, sleet before snow. I used the grippers to tarp the windshield. Driveway was slick.

Weatherguys keep upping the ante.

Hopefully it’ll be upped enough so I won’t have to go out in the blizzard tomorrow morning.

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."

Should we think you are serious, we would point out that hobbits are a race of the people of Middle Earth as portrayed in The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings.

As for "people keep posting this crap", why, yes we do. We're on our Thirty-Eighth thread since 2002.

In that time we've

- met, formed deep lasting friendships

- gathered together on numerous occasions in locations across the United States

- fallen in love, married, birthed children, buried family members

- sheltered and cared for animals of all kinds form betta fish to chickens to horses

- spent thousands of hours and dollars supporting our troops at home and abroad

- rallied and worked for conservative causes and candidates

- worshipped our Creator

- prayed for one another

- participated in missions trips and disaster relief efforts

- supported Free Republic and it's founder

So, as long as said founder allows, we'll keep posting this "crap."
