  1. Don't bring up factual history. Greta psychosis needs to rule the day.
  2. Heard that 15 yrs ago. Had 100" of snow a couple of years ago here an hour North of NYC. DC had more 90 degree days in a week and a half than I had all summer. Talk to you in another 15 years and see how things work out.
  3. It rains every year that weekend. Our buses come back with more mud than a pig pen. It's uncanny how that weekend rains almost every yeat
  4. Big difference between people telling you FU to every Cadet saying "thank you Sir". Much more pleasant work environment and more rewarding.
  5. Every year on 9/11 Fox News does a 2 or 3 hr special called Day of Terror. If you ever get to watch it, after the first tower falls and you see the dust filling the street, the first thing they cut to is an interview with me asking me what just happened. I ran into the reporter 2 blocks North as I ran for what I thought was, my life as it started collapsing in front of me. Every year somebody calls me to tell me they just saw me on TV. Try not to think about that day but I guess that interview will follow me as long as there is a Fox News
  6. Thanks. Tell you the truth if I was 20 and in College again today, I don't know if I choose to be a fireman instead. These are sad times regarding community respect for LE in the inner cities.
  7. Actually the Apple may not have fallen far from the tree as you like he promote an uncomfortable environment...
  8. Thanks. 7 minutes from my house. Sure beats 90 min to Chinatown on good day
  9. Would've been special if the kid who never attempted a FG hit it 3 ft left. He would've been treated like a rock star for his 4 years. In that place particularly, that is a good thing.
  10. Yeah. He was an idiot. You don't double down with that. Just say last thing I saw a few days back was a big ugly potato thing that looked like it went to Alibama
  11. Tough guys. This one though is the nicest man you'll ever meet. He's the first African American.
  12. Working in Cadet training at West Point for my retirement career, I am old enough to remember a military purge of top hierarchy in 2008-2009 by the new POTUS who decided that decades of experience was expendable if you didn't have a gentler liberal viewpoint when it came to waging war. This unilateral action was much more dangerous IMO than any removal of an executive branch cabinet member or administration head that was dismissed for political ideology reasons. This also occurred with the dismissal of selected Federal Prosecutors. If we are going to throw around the "F" word, let's not be hypocritical to what recent predecessors partook in.
  13. Maybe Trump threatened to assign them to Muslim Outreach duties in the Middle East like Obama did to NASA.
  14. Doesn't hold a candle to Obama at a banquet honoring a Marine "Corpseman".
  15. I'm going to have to try that or maybe the bolts on outside of the housing will loosen the auger enough that I can pull it out. It's thick so it didn't wrap around. Only stuck underneath
  16. You know what sucks? When you take your blower out and the auger grabs the thick rubber mat in front of your steps going up to your front porch and it gets stick underneath the blades and you can't pull the shit out... Then you still have to shovel the sleet
  17. Large flakes starting to mix back in as rates pick up
  18. The other thing we have going for us is the lowest dews are to our North and NW not NE. It is in a position to keep pushing rather than be eroded by retreating to the NE as is often the case with highs up over Maine. It wouldn't take much of a last min tick SE to make this a 6-8 dump of snow followed by a few inches of Sleet to bulletproof the pack
  19. True. Anyway that single digit dew point air is pushing down the Hudson. Just can't see primarily a Sleet fest not big zr North of 17.
