    We have had an early spring or a late thaw or something like that...the BOT and it's higher temps ( mid-day 50s F) have, as of this AM, turned the beautiful, white blanket into predominantly a gigantic, grey Slurpee, or Shlushie, or Sno-cone, at least on the streets...the Jeep is free and my new-ish Dunlops provided sufficient traction to negotiate the still-white, but deep and sloppy mess in my driveway. Long live 4WD...

    Warmer today, rain on the morrow and colder, more typical temps on hand for the weekend...perhaps more flake-y precip...yahoo!

    Well glad you're alright. I am with you on the "Long live 4WD". I have daily trips onto the Moor and heather hills through all sorts of terrain. But what I can't stand is the City Centre pristine clean 4WD. No need for them.

    The cool Budweiser Budvar is going down nicely. Heavy week next week for me.

    Take it easy

    Hello, I'm a misanthrope...don't ask me why, just take a good look around.

    "Men would rather believe than know" -Sociobiology: The New Synthesis by Edward O. Wilson

    "The great masses of the people...will more easily fall victims to a great lie than to a small one" -Adolph Hitler

    "We are never deceived, we deceive ourselves" -Goethe

    If you repeat a lie often enough, some will believe it to be the truth...

    You got it!
    Don't own a Barbour (Labour Party Contributers), also don't drink decaf or half decaf only full on caffeine shot. Black,Hot and strong and no I am not talking about the soccer mum.

    I am on cooking duty tonight so I better shape myself.

    Later!

    The greatest thing about banging your head against somebody's wall,
    is the feeling you get when you stop.

    Peace

    I wasted my time trying to educate you. All you wanted to do is ignore the facts and try to dig dirt.

    Stop it. I can't stop laughing.

    The moment I will need you to educate me-that's the moment I will give up.

    You still don't get it. I really like your country and the people I have met. I just have a problem with your Government,military and corporate organisations trying to dominate the world. That to my mind is no different then Islam wants an Islamic world, or the Nazi's wanting a thousand year Third Reich.With Americas help Hitlers henchmen got their asses wipped and I for one am pleased about that. But you didn't do it alone.
    Anyway old ground. You want confrontation go find somebody else please.

    A bomb from the sky is the perfect crime!

    Peace

    Yeah, you really like this country all right. That's why tou took a discussion on JFK and turned it into a rant on your feelings about the current world situation. Now, had you stuck to the subject at hand, I would not have jumped in. But, no....

    Well, thost three components do pretty much make up most countries, us included.

    You really believe that trying to instill freedom is the same as what Hitler and Islam want? Here's a hint... if we wanted to dominate the world, it would be dominated by now.

    They could not have done it without us. .And, in the event that had we NOT joined in and Germany still lost, ALL of Germany (and the rest of Europe) would have been under soviet rule like East Germany was. Betcha you would have loved that, eh? ...nothing but Trabants and Wartburgs.
