Talk about the weather, cause we certainly can't do anything about it.

But, here we are, on the eve of "the big freeze", and people are going nuts!

Folks parked by the roadside selling firewood for $35 a small bundle -- probably equivalent to about $1000 a cord.

Gas stations have long lines out to the street.

Grocery stores are BUSY, people buying food in preparation, it would seem, for 2 months underground!

And this is TEXAS!!!! Supposed to get down to 28 with some freezing rain, and people are acting like it's the end of the world.

HOWEVER --- it's GREAT for the economy!!! Maybe that's why the weatherguessers do this occasionally --- they hype "the big freeze" in hopes of spurring on the economy, and pulling Obama's butt out of the fire.

Gee, I miss global warming.
