No, they are political appointees, who serve at the pleasure of the Federal Civil Service Commission -- just like my wife and several others here.

They know the score regarding the stooges they work for while you clearly do not.

It is well known that global warming is the cause of the decline in Unicorns. You almost never see Unicorns anymore.

Art, you know me better. Government hired scientists have been helping politico's drain tax coffers for one hundred years at the very least. Not wanting the KGB to raid my humble home, I've always paid taxes but I know it's not going anywhere but here:

As sure as the nose on a bloodhound if it comes from any government affiliated source what your smelling is not the bull, it's bull $@!& :wink:
just don't get in the way of those big black cars :shock: :lol:

It was a balmy minus 6 degrees this morning in PA…

Omar I’m from the Clearwater area. Now working in NYC but SERIOUSLY considering checking with HR to see about a transfer to our Orlando based affiliate… this is getting old. My brakes were actually frozen this morning… kinda spooked me the first stop I had to make. Luckily it was in the development at 5 a.m. so no other cars around.

That's one thing I miss about being a kid. I'd probably out there loving this crap. I've seen a few out and about taking advantage of it by sledding down a hill. Now, I'm like it's too friggin' cold! :P You know, getting old really sucks sometimes. Then again, I had lived most of my life in Florida (with very little time to play in the snow in Virginia as a small child,) so that also changed my tolerance to a lot of cold weather.

I was watching the NBC evening news a couple of nights ago and weatherman Al Roker had said something to the effect that this current cold spell which we are having, is coming from Siberia . Could it be Putin's revenge ? LOL.

February 18: My homage to Hokusai's woodblock print, "Kanagawa Oki Nami Ura" or "The Great Wave off Kanagawa".

Good to hear from you....home is calling!

Looking at all the pictures and reading the posts, I can't help but sing Jimmy Buffets "Boat Drinks" . I lived in Michigan and Kentucky for most of my life, I know what you are going through. All kidding aside it's rough. I remember one morning in Kentucky I woke up to -14F , when I went outside I got ice in my mustache from my breath!

It's warming up here this weekend, I hope the warm temps head your way!

I can tell you from experience in that country...YOU are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! I woke up there to a crisp -47 one morning, so when I say Moscow Sucks...there is NO arguing with me about it...And I grew up in Michigan.

I am so torn. By pure coincidence, the headquarters of both my former company and my current company are just north of Pittsburgh, PA. The resentful side of me wants my old company to get crushed with weather and snow. But the appreciative side of me wants my current company to be spared all the rough weather. It is like going to a football game and rooting for both teams ... And -- if any one cares -- here in Colorado Springs we (surprisingly) get very little snow, but this weekend will (very unusually) get a foot and a half.

Well, it's suppose to "warm" up to 39 degrees tomorrow and I guess rain. Maybe it might melt some of the snow around (we have to wedge the vehicle between two huge piles, which is an annoying pain in the arse, so that would be great) but it supposed to drop back down in temp, so who knows? It will probably be like an ice rink out there back of that and the rain before hand. That's always good if you want to channel your inner Fred Astaire. :P

I used to live in Connecticut. Loved it there, but hated the winters. I don't miss it.

Tomorrow it's supposed to be 77 and sunny here in South Florida.

Another pleasant day between dumps of snow.
We went snowshoeing through the Amherst Point Migratory Bird Sanctuary and had some interaction with Nature:
