Ice everywhere.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My brother in law slipped on the ice the other day and will now have to have knee surgery. Nasty stuff, ice. I'd rather deal with six feet of snow.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Be careful out there, people.

Good luck in Dublin, shrift!

I'd much prefer 3-5" of snow. Going to try getting off my street now. Didn't dare an hour ago.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Heading up the hill to the shuttle in a few minutes. So friggin' tired.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's nuts, JZ.

For the record, leather-soled slippers are not appropriate snow and ice footwear! I just ran out to put some trash in the barrel, and almost didn't make it.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I really wish people still had to clear their sidewalks. The sidewalk plows either don't clear enough, or they leave terrible ruts from the wheels, which are really hard to walk on. Maybe we could take some unemployed people and pay them to shovel!

We have a new shame and fine system here for people who don't clear their sidewalks, and it seems to be working pretty well!

Punishingly Intricate

We so need that here, Jesse. Well, we do for businesses, fines anyway, but it's not enforced.

It's actually not that bad out there. The uce is crunchier than slick and the main roads are just wet.

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

I don't know if the icy sidewalks are any better--I just said "fuck it" and drove to work.
