Ice was not bad, snow is so pretty. The kind of wet snow that sticks to everything.

Opposite here.

I prefer listening to music.

Could never live without a stereo. TV I could take or leave.

The upstairs fireplaces had the flew open for 10 years before i found them open probably drawing up expensive hot air.

Ours has a screen or airtight glass door so depending on outside temps, I can use it to heat the whole house. Fan comes on when the box hits a certain temp.

The New World Order will make sure those third world migrants make it into civilized society.

Anyone heard from Hal today?

Haven’t heard from Hal, but I wasn’t here much today.

As for TVs above a fireplace, you have to look up at it because it’s not at eye level. Makes no sense to me.

Plus if you actually use the fireplace it melts your plastic TV.
