The sky is currently filled with big, fat flakes and the ground is turning white at an astonishing rate.
Huh.

Just a few tiny flakes here....
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey!
I eschewed the computer keyboard this morning, and instead watched Dirty Jobs on the TiVo. Chimney sweeping! Log diving & recovery & furniture making! Scrap metal processing with really big machines! All that you could ever want to watch over a healthy breakfast!

No snow here, but snow in the Northeastern States usually means snow here eventually.

We will likely hit 80 today in NC
So jealous. I love snow, but this is frelling ridiculous -- it's MARCH.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Reasons to watch the Oscars:
And it's about whether Philip Seymour Hoffman, if he wins for best actor, will keep a promise he made long ago. As he told David Letterman recently, he and Bennett Miller (also nominated for directing him in "Capote") made a pact with a third friend when they were all teenagers: the first one to win an Oscar would have to bark his acceptance speech like a dog and continue until he is hauled off the stage. Now that is the kind of Oscar memory that endures, the kind of magic we can all dream of seeing on Sunday.

The Blizzard of 1888 occurred on March 11. Part of the reason it was so devastating was that they had springlike weather the week before.

Then they're both frelling ridiculous. Why couldn't we have had this kind of weather back in January, when I wanted it to snow? Huh?

My boss's dog is strange. When I'm sitting she often comes over and wants me to pet her. But when I'm standing or walking she often acts like she's afraid of me.
She's a nearly fully-grown German Shepherd.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Just a few tiny flakes here....
I just popped my head of my closetoffice and we're down to tiny flakes, but there's still a ton of them and the grass is completely white. The streets and sidewalks are merely wet, though.

It keeps waffling between just a few flakes and OMGWHITEOUTDEATHSNOW here.
