When I woke up this morning, it was 11 degrees outside. I have Anchorage on my phone - you were right around freezing then. I got into the van and I was almost 10 miles down the road before I stopped shivering - even with a heated seat.

I understand there's another big storm brewing off the coast of California - the weather gurus here can't tell yet whether an Arctic blast will hit it in time to turn it into a major blizzard or just another dose of wintry mix.

Why are these people paid for lying to us? Do they think they're Senators or something?

My knee tells me blizzard - March comes in like a Lion!

America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Must retire for the evening -

For Every Morn' Brings Forth A Noble Chance,
And Every Chance Demands A Noble Knight!

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer,
already mounts the parapet.

Soldiers of the Greatest Generation
Stand The Watch Tonight!

Stay warm when you sally forth. It’s just after midnight and still above freezing. Gonna be the same for several days.
