Last week one of the local weathermen said you know you're in Michigan when it's 70 degrees one day and ice storms 3 days later. I think we've had 3 days in a row with snow, ice and freezing rain. I just sat in front of my computer all day today, except when I watched TV. I had no idea how bad it was until the 11:00 news came on and they said at one point 350,000 people in Michigan didn't have any power. There must have been a lot of trees down for that to happen. They said one landed right on a transformer and the wire burned the sidewalk. I hope they were smart enough not to go look at it until the power was turned off.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783
