Very, very, very snowy. But some people like the snow. I'm cool with that, but I prefer to stay indoors.

44. Sorry, but you are wrong. Most people miss this. |

Nicholas II abdicated for himself and his son. Nicholas' brother became tsar Michael II. He was convinced to abdicate after just one day, becoming the last tsar of Russia. He was killed on the street by a mob on the street before his brother and family were executed. Nevertheless, he was the last tsar to rule in Russia.

66. No, Nicholas had already abdicated his son's right to the throne. |

Michael had no children and the communist soon took over, making him the last of the line.

55. No, the right of habeas corpus. Our founding fathers recognized |
|
the right of habeas corpus as their most important right inherited from England. Habeas corpus, the right to see and review the evidence the state has for holding a prisoner, dates back before the 1215. King John recognized it as law when signed the Magna Carta. George W. Bush no longer has to recognize it, since it was abolished by a recent act of Congress (The National Security Act)in cases of "National Security." Guess who gets to define when "national security" is endangered.
Americans now have fewer rights than English citizens had BEFORE the signing of the Magna Carter. So much for standing tall. Home of the Brave? Land of the Free?

At midnight go into the bathroom with a lit candle. Face the mirror, close your eyes and chant: "Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary." Open your eyes and you will see her image in the mirror.
Oh, the innocence of youth.
