Hey, Richard, I forwarded you a text message from Kamala Harris — reaching out in anticipation of Monday’s Iowa caucuses. Didn’t you get it? Kamala would’ve kept you warm. And it would have cost you only $5.

This is why every home needs a back up heat source like you guessed it ----- WOOD. We used to have the greatest wood stove; a Fisher with a nickel plated trim front. We had (and still have) a readily available source of wood. In the old days we had to cut it, split it and bring it home. Now we let the loggers leave us a few slash piles to work on. Take that any of you eco terrorists sitting home in the cold with your newly installed heat pump which is not going to provide heat even if the power is on at your house in temperatures like this. Right now my forced air gas stove is chugging away at 71--this is about 2 degrees warmer than normal. If the power goes out I can even take a nice hot shower with my wonderful gas hot water heater.
