Global Warming, Schmobal Florming!! At the Homes for Heroes office the whole past week it has been below zero Set a record here for the coldest days in December and January. I kind of liked the idea of our planet warming up. Why do we have to stop it? Us up here in Land of the Lakes would be able to extend the fishing season, increased growing season etc. So at time of posting it got back up to a balmy 19! Yay, I finally get to put on shorts! Here are some videos of how cold it can get here. … (2 comments)

The big news of the day is the successful water ditching by US Air pilot Chesley B. Sullenberger. To think he dead sticked (no power) that plane in so perfectly as to not even break off a wing is truly amazing. My hats off to his skill, demeanor and cast iron B**ls. The aircraft was an Airbus A320. What is the significance of that you ask? It is a fly by wire aircraft, meaning that there is no cables connecting the pilots control stick to control surfaces.
