I think I need a bigger snow blower.

My roof right now.

The thing about living in a Thomas Kinkade painting they don't tell you is: the people in the house are worried about their roof collapsing because of all that snow.

Decided to see if I could drive into town. Made it there and back, but the roads are pretty bad.

Been pushing around the snow blower. Easier than a shovel, but not easy in a foot and a half of snow.

Nothing new here, but this Slate article covers pretty much everything we know right now about the National Enquirer's extortion of Jeff Bezos and the potential political ramifications. Nice short read for the perplexed. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/02/jeff-bezos-american-media-national-enquirer-blackmail.html

Snowy sunrise.

Let it snow let it snow let it snow. (Started coming down even harder right after I took the video.)

So, what is Stack Overflow actually good for? Well, they have the numbers to show they've helped a million developers figure out how to exit from #VIM. https://stackoverflow.blog/2017/05/23/stack-overflow-helping-one-million-developers-exit-vim/

The metal chair that’s in every restaurant. https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2019/1/31/18204407/metal-chair-cafe-restaurant-tolix-marais

Ever wonder about those chairs? Turns out all they are all copies and variations of a Tolix design from the 1930s. If you are looking to buy some, the search terms are 'Tolix' and 'Bistro'.

A note to Paul Ryan and Howard Schultz and everyone else who is going on and on about what is 'American' and what is not…

…I am a US Citizen, a veteran, and my family has been on this continent since the 17th century – YOU DON'T GET TO TELL ME WHAT IS 'AMERICAN' AND WHAT IS NOT.

You know what's not 'American'? Telling other people they don't measure up because they have different opinions.

Yet more piping! 😀

The haggis.

Toast to the haggis. And the Piper.

"To a haggis."
