The temperature here in Minnesota is sitting on minus 15 degrees. The wind chill is forecast to be so bad (-45 degrees anyone?) that the kids are starting school late tomorrow morning.

With a cup of warm tea, two pair of socks on my feet, and an extra sweater around my shoulders, my mind drifts to dreams of the house I will someday build.

The Weimaraner is a beautiful breed of dog that often ends up in rescue. Please do your research before becoming the owner of one of these regal clowns.

We all know about the intellectual shift in this country over the past eight years. It's been more about who you'd like to have a beer with than who you'd like to have a conversation with about the arts, or culture, or any of that long-haired, high-brow, nose-in-the-air, hippy stuff! Please follow me below the fold for a little re-education...

I am a strong Democrat. There should be no doubt about this in any way. I have always had yard signs for Democratic candidates. My car has always had snarky anti-republican bumper stickers, as well as campaign bumper stickers for Democrats. I have taken RNC literature and sent it back in their pre-paid envelope with, "ha ha ha ha ha," written all over it. Why, oh why have I somehow gotten on a calling list for the Republicans? More below the fold.

Emergency preparedness...we've been scolded about having a plan in place for years now. Remember the rounds that duct tape was making on the morning news shows after the Twin Towers and the following anthrax attacks? We got a stiff reminder during Katrina that we should be prepared for natural disasters as well. I've scoffed at some of the ridiculous crap they've tried to shove at us, but for the most part, having some preparation seems to be good, common, horse sense. Does that mean I've done anything to prepare? Um...no....I'm one of those procrastinators.

I'm motivated to change my procrastinating ways because of this bail-out fiasco that is going to happen in some form or another. Why would a financial bail-out of the fine folks on Wall Street make me want to stock up on duct tape? One word... INFLATION.
