The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
 1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
 
 It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

				 | Well... snow blower started and checked out, fresh gas with conditioner, shovels on the porch, plenty of salt, plow guy all set to go, generator tested and ready, oil in the tank, 2 full tanks of propane for the generator, plenty of food and drinks. I am ready. Even my body is ready to go. It's a freakin' miracle. 
 So now that I have gotten all that in order, just figured I would share so you all would be able to relax... because it is absolutely positive that none of it will be needed. Heck the power has only been out for two hours since I put the generator in 2++ years ago. Garanteed.... no need.

My suggestion is to ask, and then go to Boston tomorrow and see if you can stay there at least until after your appointment.  People are allowed in there even though they don't have cancer.  My wife takes her father to Tufts quite a bit and one appointment was late.  They offered them a room.

				 | I'm in Lincoln RI if anyone needs anything; food, water gas can or any older relatives checked up on.
 We're ready here if anyone needs anyone checked up on just let me know I'll be checking in here between my rounds or just call me I help out my parents and a few older folks when we get feet instead of inches.  Be safe everyone.

				 | Thanks all!! I go to Tuff's, they called today to say they will not be in tomorrow. So I have to go on the 5th and 24th of Feb. now.Almost there, when these two app. are done I should go on the list, then my brother can get tested, if a match we move to transplant.
 Guy next to me at dialysis got a call sunday to say they had a kidney, he was wow!! 1/2 hour they called back said the donor did not look good when they opened him up so no deal. What a let down, but at least knowing that after 3 years they are watching the list!! They say hes near top now!!
 
 crap the lights flickering now!!!!!!!!!

				 | i can barely open my back door due to snow drift 
front door is a non exit now....  dog cannot go outside 
as the snow is way to deep....  i  let her see for herself 
and  she realized  "i can wait strategy" is the only choice.
