I think almost half of the Plymouth colonists died the first winter.

Wheat and Chaff.

Worked or starved. Not that this welfare queen looks like she's close to starving.

Especially in New England. I know it's been cold so far this winter, but I've lived in Georgia as well, and I can tell you that it doesn't get anywhere NEAR as cold there nor for nearly as long as it does up here in NH. Yet I can still manage to heat my house without any help from "da gub'mint" or taking from Obama's "stash".

Seasoned wood, $275 per cord, delivered, hon. Get choppin.
