  8. That’s my grandma downing we all try to help her in the winter with the snow blowing but she’s one of a kind and she loves to do it herself
    I promise all of you that we ask her every time it snows and we get told why I love the snow lol

  21. My grandpa is 82 and he still shovels the driveway and side walk I’ll tell him to go Inside but he insist on doing it so I just help him and get it done really quick so he goes back in

  23. Editor’s Note: The following piece comes from Global Post, which provides excellent coverage of world news – important, moving and odd.
    By Tom Mucha, Global Post
    Truth is elusive.  But it’s a good thing we have math.
    Our friends at Business Insider know this, and put those two principles to work today in this excellent and highly informative little slideshow, made even more timely by the ongoing talks in Washington, D.C. aimed at staving off a U.S. debt default.
    Here’s the big idea:
    Many people — politicians and pundits alike — prattle on that China and, to a lesser extent Japan, own most of America’s $14.3 trillion in government debt.
    But there’s one little problem with that conventional wisdom: it’s just not true. While the Chinese, Japanese and plenty of other foreigners own substantial amounts, it’s really Americans who hold most of America’s debt.
    Here’s a quick and fascinating breakdown by total amount held and percentage of total U.S. debt, according to Business Insider:
     

    Hong Kong: $121.9 billion (0.9 percent)

    Caribbean banking centers: $148.3 (1 percent)

    Taiwan: $153.4 billion (1.1 percent)

    Brazil: $211.4 billion (1.5 percent)

    Oil exporting countries: $229.8 billion (1.6 percent)

    Mutual funds: $300.5 billion (2 percent)

    Commercial banks: $301.8 billion (2.1 percent)

    State, local and federal retirement funds: $320.9 billion (2.2 percent)

    Money market mutual funds: $337.7 billion (2.4 percent)

    United Kingdom: $346.5 billion (2.4 percent)

    Private pension funds: $504.7 billion (3.5 percent)

    State and local governments: $506.1 billion (3.5 percent)

    Japan: $912.4 billion (6.4 percent)

    U.S. households: $959.4 billion (6.6 percent)

    China: $1.16 trillion (8 percent)

    The U.S. Treasury: $1.63 trillion (11.3 percent)

    Social Security trust fund: $2.67 trillion (19 percent)

    So America owes foreigners about $4.5 trillion in debt. But America owes America $9.8 trillion.

  32. My son-in-law forwarded this video to me. I live in North Dakota and I am 85 years old and do all my own snow blowing. Because I have an electric lift that leads up to my kitchen door I bring the blower in several hours to warm up(electric start works better when the blower is warm.) When I finish I bring the blower back to my kitchen and let the ice and snow melt on a large plastic table cloth.
