He is pretty amazing, glad he got his due from the Burgh, and it is gratifying to hear him speak highly of it’s citizens. Did you watch James Neal NHL36? we love those shows at our house. it was enjoyable.

perhaps, baby killing is a rite of passage on the left. I pic them in the dead of night with a fetus on the altar, dancing and having an orgy.

Never heard of it. Is that on NHL network? Neal finally started scoring some goals this season, though he’s been dry lately.

yeah it is on NHL network. The Whats up ya sieve girlies, my fave hockey bloggers, LUUUUV James Neal and so i am kept abreast of his exploits. MOST disturbing thing from the NHL36 episode on him? he’s obsessed with his hair, spends inordinate time styling it but.... HE ONLY WASHES IT ONCE PER WEEK. he said that. on national tv. once per week. Anyone who has lived with a hockey player would have to be appalled at that revelation. he plays HOCKEY, he practices DAILY, hockey boys sweat and good lord THEY STINK TO HIGH HEAVEN.

The ‘rats are playing poker with
Invidious rhetoric and such-
They’ve overplayed their hand
And decidedly lost their touch

And those race and income cards
Are getting stale, after all-
They might as well be Gorbachev
Defending the Berlin Wall

And that gender card doesn’t work-
It just won’t pass the test
Most women want their rights-
Not to be at government behest ...

It is 40 and stormy-brrr! I went to fetch a few groceries for the weekend, and am in for the day. As soon as the rain lets up, I’ll need to go fetch wood for a fire tonight-I’ll probably be able to find dry deadfalls in the deep woods.

A+++ Great job!

Sounds like a good plan. Snowing pretty heavy here now, looks like it’s going to stick this time.

Snow stopped and it’s already melting off the trees and grass. Easy come, easy go.

It is still raining here, and supposed to keep up until Sunday-we need it so that is great, if inconvenient.

I just saw on the news that a buyer who was going to pay some woman for a McNugget that looked like George Washington is backing out of the deal-talk about chickens***...

Back later...
