    Good mornin’, and happy Saturday! Just be glad that you aren’t a MN politician this morning! Since it seems to be getting colder all over the place, I thought I would make coffee in the house. This falls under the category of Pennsylvania punched tin. Something a little different. Keep your head on a swivel and carpe’ your coffee.

    Another side of the Greenland issue:

    … independence is not about choosing between Denmark and the US — it is about finally being treated as human beings with the right to decide.

    “We are only 55,000 people,” Petersen said. “If someone truly cared, this would already be fixed.”

    Instead, she said, Greenland remains spoken for — but rarely listened to.

    “They talk about our land,” she said. “They just never talk to us.”

      Good evening everyone, including Miss Stella and Aus,

      Some other information on Greenland:

      Greenland as an island only has a population of 55,000. They could not mount an army sufficient for their own defense. They are indeed very vulnerable.

      Independence comes with a price.

      Denmark subsidizes their economy to the tune of 477 million dollars a year. That’s about $8,600.00 per person per year. That’s about 20 percent of Greenland’s economy.

      Greenland does have things of value in strategic importance, and natural resources, including rare-earth minerals that could be used to their own benefit, but as it stands now Greenland is a dependent nation.

      All imports/exports must move by sea or air.

      Practically speaking, without outside support, Greenland cannot defend itself or maintain their own economy.

    I’m late! Good morning everyone, hope you are bundled up and warm. We are getting up into the 40’s today but then the cold, cold stuff comes back. Snow missed us completely, and thank goodness so did the predicted rain.

    Now they’re saying next Thursday might be our “event” day. Hah! Just give me April, okay?

    Okay, once in a great while you stumble across something really cool on Facebook. I just saw this old Italian woman grating citrus. She put a piece of parchment paper on first, grated, and the just lifted the whole deal up and took a knife to slide it in the bowl. Pretty cool!

    Yikes! Just saw there was a shooting in New Orleans last night. Evidently the shooter chased a teen into a Creole restaurant and shot the teen and three tourists. They are looking for the shooter now.
