[ReindeerThistle]

The Wire is one of the few shows that portray police and criminals beyond stereotypes... Ripper Street is another good one for that.

"The pawn and king go back in the same box" is one of my favorite quotations ever.

"And four months..."

I just won an epic four-day battle with some nasty malware.

Time to break out the bourbon.

The New Year is here and the New Year Concert of the Vienna Philharmonic was awesome.

Rave: And that, ladies and gentlemen, concludes three days of non-stop snow. Result, over a foot on the ground.

Forecast? Three more days of snow over the weekend.

Huzzah huzzah!

 

[Loppan Torkel]

We've hardly had any winter here at all, not sure if there's been snow yet. Still a few degrees above 0 degrees C. Very strange. We might be going straight for the spring.

 

[Takhisis]

The Finns might have stolen your snow!

Just got back from the package store and grocery, it's really cold outside. On the plus side, I'm staying in my own home tonight, have some good food and drink, and I got access to the gym.

You can have the snow that's fallen in my neighborhood. I don't want it anyway.

Congratulations! Next thing you know you'll have some grandchildren annoying you all day long. And you will probably love it.

Congratulations, BJ!

Rave #1: new fulltime organizer recruited last night! First one of the year!

Rave #2: non-commie bestie has really hit it off with this guy... he loves to cook and eat, she loves to cook and eat -- really likes to eat. And now our conversations are normal again.

Rave #3: family reunion in GA this fall ... possible launch of a new branch of organization...

Life is looking good.

I got some quad roller skates a couple of weeks ago (I've been skating on inlines), and I told my daughter she could teach me to shoot the duck once I felt less wobbly. Yesterday I went half way around the rink, and just barely missed winning a prize. This makes me absurdly happy.

 

[Takhisis]

What do you mean by 'shooting the duck', CKS?
