Turn on the news and its...."It's the Polar VORTEX!" Its a POLAR PLUNGE!!! IT IS WINTER BLIZZARD JANUS!!! Global warming, Global cooling, EL Nino, La Nina "
CALL FEMA ...its all George Bush's fault!

Good Lord. It is just snow. It is winter, it is suppose to snow. The earth is fine, it gets warmer it gets cooler. There have been heat waves and ice ages, droughts and floods. I suspect it will continue. The planet is still evolving. I would be more worried if we had a static planet and nothing changed. The news should say...weather looks questionable for boating tomorrow...better break out a pair of boots and a shovel.

Wood stove going nicely, snow is light enough so that leaf blower will handle it. Like Sandman says, its just another day.
