6. WTF - January is 2/3rds Gone John Palmer 17:21 Fri Jan 20/23 9 lines Last years going fast - already 60 and this year is racing forward like crazy. At least we don't have any snow yet - but heard that a polar vortex is coming in February. May do some winter hiking in Oakland County in Feb. Will be back in MI around the 18th if anyone is interested. |

Wes and I "hiked" to the univeristy when in Montreal many a winter. That was brutal. Even given that, I miss a good winter walk in the snow. |

"When I was a kid, we had to walk to school in a blizzard, up a hill, backwards without shoes at 2 in the morning when it was -500f...." |

NAUGHTY NAUGTHY... As for winter weather, state parks have night-time lantern hikes. If its not too cold, I may try that but Feb is going to be a polar vortex month. |

Now January is almost over - just 3 days left. St. Clair Shores has its annual Aqua Freeze fest that is past already, but you can look up info here: https://scsmi.net/Calendar.aspx?EID=7944 |

Wes and I are staying away from restaurants this weekend through next weekend because of the hoards of people falling prey to the commercialization of Valentine's day. Lets face it, its always been about people making money. You should treat your loved one with respect 365 days of the year, not just on special days like anniversaries and especially not just on a "holiday" contrived to make someone more money. |

I'm going to the gym tomorrow and then ordering a Lou Malnati's pizza. |

More work in the barn tomorrow. I have to clean out and get rid of a bunch of rusty parts from old tractors that I don't need anymore and no one wants even for scrap. It will be in the upper 50's with some showers around - thats fine - just perfect for work - you get warmed up with hard work. Still trying to digest that dog's breakfast of a SOTU speech. He looked like grampa hobbling around yelling at the neighborhood kids for making too much noise - especially when the Republicans yelled at him and called him out for his lying. I feel we will survive this. People are already starting to turn away from this nonsense. Just hope we don't do too much permanant damage. |

Hey Victor - be sure to take your shotgun when you are out in the barn. You may need to shoot down a Chinese balloon. |

You mean shoot down some guy's hobby drone. At least the last three were. I think the big one was a bonafide PRC spycraft. |

Some hobbyists are missing their balloon. They said the lost track of it over the Yukon right about when that F-22 shot something down. Sidewinders are $400k each. China is laughing their ass off at us. |

There is another one near Hawaii. Its another big one like the 1st Chinese spycraft. Shoot it down now. |

At least we are going to expel that bible-thumping nazi Putin from Ukraine. I'd say nuke Moscow and be done with it. |

Thats why you libtards hate Putin - not because he is a butcher who started an unjust war (he is), but because his country is the last bastion of unspoiled Western Christendom in the world and you (and Soros and Klaus (the real NAZI) Schwab) want to stomp it out. I (and millions of others) see right through you and will not let you do that. |

The sooner the better - the world has to evolve into what's next. These ideas should have died a long time ago. |

Ice storm wasn't too bad up here in HW. It was too warm and got warmer overnight. People along the Ohio state line got nailed. Heard that there were some issues in Troy, but not in HW or RO. |

Chicago itself got all rain. It was around 33 all day long and actually went up to 40 by 2am. My brother-in-law's son lives in Tecumseh and they got hit hard. I haven't heard from him, but they Consumer's outage map shows that most of Tecumseh is out. |

Tucson got snow this month. We got 4 inches. The people here had no idea what to do. We don't have any snowplows. I scared them all when I told them that once they get a plow, that they have to clean their driveway bib off quickly after the plow comes through or else it will freeze into a chunk of immovable ice. You should have seen the look of horror on their faces when I described growing up in Detroit. |

I don't really pay attention to the weather anywhere becuase I'm dead and it doesn't matter. I'm so stressed out, where's my valium... |

As this is January-ish, I will close as we have a March themed discussion already |
