Mornin' all, we have maybe 2" so far. Lake Effect will kick in tonite. Could be ugly.

Our Governor " Moonbeam " declared a state of emergency for the whole state. He ordered all tractor trailers off the road. People are screaming. He's an idiot!

No tractor trailers on the Thruway and routes 81 and 86.

We have 6" now.

The only changes I would make to it are, if it doesn't have night sights, I'd add them. I would also install a ambi A1 style safety and get rid of the extended safety, and install an extended slide release, but that's just me.

We didn't get the snow. We just got the cold and some of the wind.

Thanks Lynn! 

It's got the Novak sights and Trijicon dots so we're good there. I definitely like the idea of an extended slide release though. 

We'll put her through the paces this spring though and go from there. 

Snow is pretty much stopped. Next door neighbors are idiots. They are just trying to drive over 12 or so inches, getting stuck, shoveling, moving a few feet, getting stuck again, and then shoveling. Unless it was an absolute emergency I wouldn't be trying to go anywhere in this crap.

Thanks Spark!

Back at work this morning. Getting snow squalls now. Most of the main roads are decent but there is a lot of ice and the rural roads are still very rough. 

Straight to work and straight home. No need to be out with the morons.

Mornin gentsCoffeeSick In Bed

Just got back from the Dr.. I got the flu. Mrs. BF has it too, and we both had a flu shot. Doc said the shot was only 50% effective, but if you do get the flu, it's not as bad. Hate to think how miserable I'd be if it was full force.

20* going to low 30s today, but with clear skies. Winds are 10 to 15mph, but I'm staying out of it.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Mornin gentsHowdy

Not retired yet. I was gonna go at the end of this year, but the bastards gave me a sizable raise. They want me to stay another 3 years; the minimum amount of time for the raise to have the maximum affect to my pension. I may stay 2 years, but that's about it.

Cold and clear here too (17* at 0800), but winds are zero value.

I feel like shooter's squirrel, except I'm still alive.

It no longer pays to try hard to get into work in bad weather.  I probably wouldn't survive a big hit like an accident.  So I just hold up now and watch it blow!  I looked like the stay puff marshmallow man Tuesday evening.  Snowblower threw the drive belt on the second pass up the driveway.  I was out there trying to get it back on wearing 3 layers, could hardly bend my arms....


Dear Lord send us some Global Warming..... please!

Good day chaps.
Not really sure what day it isWhacko Wasn't here yesterday; couldn't move without c,c,c,c,c,c,c,coughing, and ending up in a fetal position. Today my torso feels like somebody hung me up in a barn and beat me with a 4x4, or I was doing core exercises with Kickboxer for the first time. I think working out with KB would hurt more, but it would really depend on who's swinging the 4x4.

Weather here is decent, probably in the high 40s or low 50s, partly sunny and not overly windy, but it doesn't matter much to me.

It definitely was such a mild winter (other than the blizzard earlier this week) but i think it caused a lot more illness for folks. I got damn sick back on New Year's and pretty much everybody at work has been laid up with something awful, with some folks battling multiple illnesses.

Earlier this year both the flu and a stomach gastrointestinal virus were running rampent (still are). Now I have had both of these illnesses in the past, and both are nasty. The flu is 14 days of misery, and your as sick on day one or day 14 as you are on day1, or day in between, but then it's over. The virus on the other hand only last for 3 or 4 days, but it is intensely painful, and you think any minute you're going to be looking up at your own ass from the bottom of the toilet, or you're going to puke yourself inside out, if not both at the same time, and once you're over it, you still feel bad for days and days.
I asked myself which one of these afflictions I would rather have IF I had to choose. I couldn't choose, but I'm stuck with the flu.
