We got about six inches of nasty, wet, heavy snow here in the last twenty-four hours or so, and we’re supposed to get more. It’s unpleasant. It literally took me 45 minutes to drive about 100 yards on my way to work this afternoon. People are out of their minds.
On my way home, I stopped at …

Poor picture because my camera is old and cranky, but here are the sweet little baby ducks I followed at the park today.
I wish that the “Still have our dignity” sketch from Kids in the Hall were available somewhere online on video. I sing it to myself every time I eat Triscuits. I admit that I have a problem.
