We did have our load of snow eventually over night and managed to clean (most of) it up this morning and noon. After so many storms it gets boring to make pictures of that white fluffy wet stuff. Right? Last … Continue reading

Waiting for the snow

This is weird: all day we’ve been waiting for the snow to come, but it’s still not there. We hope it will pass by. Note that image above (rather right) has a UTC timestamp, instead of our regular AST one … Continue reading

Earworm redux

There’s much abuzz about Kelly Clarkson’s ‘Since U been gone’ song. Apparently it makes tops over at iTunes (goes to XML link). For Europeans abroad, ms. Clarkson was one of the winners of American Idol, you know the show with … Continue reading
