Tossed and turned til ~6:30 when the power came back on --- figured there was no use getting out of the nice warm bed until the house warmed up.... Gonna fire up the jenny today just for the hell of it now and double check gas supplies. That 2.5 hours without power, must have been uncomfortable! Scary times we live in! I've been backtracking the times after resetting the clocks.... it was actually out for a good 4.5 hours ---- long enough for the house to get pretty chilly --- 58 when I got up and looked at 4:30 - down from my usual 63 night temp..... yeah, I could feel it. It was a matter of formulating the 'plan' for getting the jenny up and running and protected from driving snow/rain --- at least I have one, but wasn't excited to implement at 5 am even tho I was pretty much awake. I don't know why, but I just CAN'T fall asleep without the tv on.....

The U.S. is sending $50M in equipment to the Ukraine to fix their energy grid. They are also going to requisition another ONE point ONE BILLION more dollars to fix Ukrainian and Moldovan power infrastructure.
Meanwhile, WaGun's JohnBrowning wakes up in the dark... People across THIS nation are making the choice between fuel to get to work, food and other essentials or heating their houses.
CA has rolling blackouts and crumbling equipment which causes fires that burn huge swaths of the state...
I guess you can't launder and skim funds spent on domestic infrastructure as easily.... crooks.

This - it takes some minutes from front door to mail box maybe 10 or so and add rain snow dark wind? And sometimes the guy doesn’t even show just figgin gives up I’ll get the useless usual shit tomorrow The box is locked and rimfire proof

I have a security mailbox, and i have further reinforced it beyond it's capabilities. If i go get the Mail every two weeks, it's unusual. It's 99% trash Mail anyway and i have Camera's, a bad attitude, and a suppressed Rifle ready..... and better things to do than get it every day. If you have valuables, banking info and checks coming by Mail you need to get out of the stone age. Business is no longer conducted that way. YMMV, but it shouldn't.

The only flaw is some suppliers only ship USPS. One of the lazy fux told me - after the usual screw up - the numbers on the package are too small...........

The Communists are still raging here in the U.S. stamping out the "four olds" (old ideas, customs, culture and habits of mind) tearing down statues, renaming places and eliminating anything American. Americans remain apathetic and the communists' march rolls on. The latest casualty? The Confederate monument in Arlington Nat'l Cemetery. Originally the brain-child of a Union President, the monument was established to bring UNITY back to a divided nation. Your senators and representatives would love to hear your feedback. https://www.americanthinker.com/article ... ngton.html

Simple minded people getting sucked into stupid questions.
Example -
'Should gov't allow same sex marriage?'
Which implies consent for gov't to regulate marriage.
Think outside the fucking box. Gov't shouldn't be involved in marriage. It's a personal matter.
'Should gov't charge 5% or 3% on this bullshit fee?'... The correct answer is '0%, go fuck yourself'...
