You are welcome to them, Kat. Seriously. But let me know as I was going to donate them today.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I have wrapped presents! For values of "wrapping" that include putting things in bags with tissue, but still. Everything that's been shipped here is wrapped, in order to minimize the time required to wrap all the stuff that's going to my parents' house.

I can't wrap until after I arrive at my parents' house since gifts go in my suitcase. Not really sure how I'm going to wrap that 15 lb. extension cord for my bro-in-law...

Hil,
I'm glad you are okay. This reminds me of when I was living in a midwestern state that shall remain nameless. They did not have a good history of repairing roads. Apparently although the state does save money by reducing road maintenance, it costs individuals drivers hundreds of dollars to fix damage caused by potholes, etc.
I think something similar is true for lack of salting and snow plowing.

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

Although some places salt less for environmental reasons. Generally, they use more sand to make up for it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
