It was 37° when I got up and I heard geese flying over too. I'd bet they're flying back south!

Winter is never going to end, it's just going to keep on being cold and horrible out.

BTW, before people gripe about global warming, maybe you should read about it first. Global warming means that all weather will become more extreme. Hot becomes hotter and cold becomes colder. They really should have called it climate change because that's what it really is.

Or maybe people should realize that volcanic and solar activity contribute a heck of a lot more to "climate change" than humans can ever hope to.

How convenient . Real Science changes the hypothesis when the data doesn't support it. Global Climate Change is just a computer model, that is not accurately predicting the future. Seems more agenda driven than data driven. If they want me to take their theory seriously, quit bullying dissenting scientists. Truth has nothing to fear from investigation.

It's like a nightmare that never ends. It doesn't always get to me. I usually ski and still do out door activities. But this year I can't do much, due to a back injury. And I'm getting tired of having to tend to my hand fired coal stove! It's a PIA!!
