When impeached former president Clinton was lying to the entire country and to the grand jury, FOX News was not yet on the air.

Never let reality nor facts get in the way of a good liberal revision of history.

Fox News started in 1996. But since Clinton's lies started on 1/20/1993, you are technically correct.

Unfortunately, near-neighbor, there's a fair number of them where I am.  Mainly where I work.
Same here. The amusing thing is that this area is so dependent on the military it's not funny.

I love those guy coming up here from New York or other flatland regions during the winter.  "Ey, I'm from fawkin New Yawk City!  We knows about wintah!"

Uh, no.  No, you don't.  If the person was from upstate NY, I might agree.  But by and large, it's amazing how many cars with out-of-state plates are in the ditches on the road to Conway, etc, any given storm weekend.  And of course, NONE of these idiots pack a kit for it, NONE of these idiots are dressed for it, etc...

One weekend in the Sierras in January--that's all it takes.  That Prius will be buried until about MAY, with the frozen douchcicles still inside.

Sparky, when I lived in Maine, I'd occasionally drive through NH.  One spot I recall was Dixville Notch.  If one gets in trouble driving there, one is fawked.  We encountered no other car during our drive through.  It was very eerie.  If you google Dixville Notch, a map pops up.  There is nothing surrounding the lone road through. 

You'd better be prepared, in any weather.

Betcher ass I'll agree with that sentiment.  I ALWAYS carry a small tool and first aid kits, a couple of fleeces, blanket, hat, water-resistant gloves, and MRE.  I don't do a whole lot of off-road stuff, but if another blizzard of 1978 rolls through, better to have a chance when you're facing THIS:



And that's Mass.  Last winter, there were places in the Notches that got FIVE FEET PLUS IN 36 HOURS.

I don't get it.  Are these cars parked too close to the beach??  Did the tide come in??  What the hell!

By the way ... it gets cold down here too.  I saw a thermometer once that read something like 45 degrees F.

I was in Rhode Island for that blizzard. We got 54 inches that day. The State was shut down for a week. They kept predicting snow was going to start and that there would be X amount by Y time. That went on for a day before it started snowing and Wooooo Baby did it snow. We had over 18 inches in 5 hours where I worked before they sent us home. That was an evil evil drive.
 
It was the first time I ever heard the Emergency Broadcast System used for what it was intended for. They told us to stay home!  :rotf: :rotf: You can see from Sparky's pic that wasn't going to be happening any time soon anyway. Everybody in the Sate was paid unemployment that week. If you had a family you received food stamps too. They came to you at work to sign you up. Your Federal Disaster money at work.
