Liz and Sam have it all: a happy marriage, a precocious preteen son named Nate, and a house that's just the right size for the three of them. Then, Liz's parents move in. Grandpa Irv is a kindly but occasionally grumpy Korean War vet who loves watching TV, bickering over politics, and spoiling his grandson. His wife Sarah is equally strong-willed, whether urging Irv to diet, questioning her daughter's parenting choices, or finding surprising success as an advice blogger.
With an estimated 50+ million Americans living in such families as of today, Freshly Squeezed is a refreshing look at newfound family togetherness after the economic collapse. Can three generations of one family share their lives, their feelings, their dwindling fortunes and a bathroom — and keep their sense of humor in the process? Pay a visit to the Freshly Squeezed family to find out! Freshly Squeezed is the brainchild of Ed Stein, an award-winning political cartoonist. He created the local comic strip, Denver Square, for the Denver Rocky Mountain News for 12 years. He lived the Freshly Squeezed life first-hand when his kids were little and his 80-year-old father moved to Denver.

You never can be sure what it will be. Might be frozen under such heavy snows you can’t dig your way out.

And now even the UN is admitting that solar activity may be responsible for climate change. Fancy that.

@PhoebeDog
Which part of the UN? What do they know about climate?

The Sun figures in to it but not for the added heating. In some cases we have had reduced luminosity.

Deny what? That the deniers are off their rockers? I don’t and won’t deny that.

Now, now, don’t hurt his little feelings. People like him really enjoy their smug self-satisfied feelings of superiority when they denigrate their own species by blaming humans for “global warming”, I mean “climate change”, or whatever they are calling it this week.
