Most of these mainstream “journalists” are not only tendentious, but outright contentious yet pretentious regarding their “objectivity”...

BTW, around here the warmer Lake Erie is sparing us from most of the ‘stuff’ (at least for now anyway ;)

I gave hubby the news of the day in sixty seconds yesterday when he wandered in from work after 8 last night.........he came whipping down the stairs later after seeing it on the news and says “I think they faked it...”....he was shocked. I laughed and told him FReepers had it figured out while the balloon was sailing along and the balloon chasers were in full chase/mode.
