We have had sleet falling all day long. It didn't start overnight like they thought and there hasn't been any freezing rain either. We have about a 1/2 to an inch of sleet on the ground. They have already closed schools for tomorrow.

Neno and I went last night and got some wood from Randy's landscaping yard in his truck. We stacked it on the front porch. Now we really look like rednecks.

I think war is inevitible. GWB has just gone so far with everything now there is no way he can back out. Our relations with our NATO allies suck. Polls show that the majority of people in countries around the world think that Bush is wrong in choosing war instead of more inspections and containment. Heck, the polls show the majority of Americans feel that way too. Bush trumpeted war without any other alternative so heavily, that he can't do anything else now. He has painted himself into a corner.
