I haven't screwed up the year yet this year, but I'm sure it's coming.

We're supposed to get enough snow today that they already canceled school last night. Work might have done the same in the past, but as we're in a WFH world they'll likely just say WFH yo.

I was wondering if we were going to get snow at all this winter (something I didn't say aloud just in case), and it's decided to show up this week. I'm glad I worked from home today* so I could shovel 4 times so far because a shovel full of this stuff is roughly 300 pounds.

I was listening to a live recording of a podcast in my car and I noticed there was a weird feedback whine in the background. I thought, huh, you'd think the production team would've taken care of that. Eventually I wondered if it was closer to home, so I turned down the volume and realized it seemed to be coming from the air vents on the passenger side. Annoyed, my mind started considering possible fixes and/or estimated mechanic fees. However, shortly after, a potential solution presented itself: I gave that side of the dash a good whack. So far, so good. EEEEEeeeeee!

It looks like La Tortuga is movin' on over (on up?) to the Yomiuri Giants. They must have been scouting Jeff A's updates.

Obviously I love Naz Reid. I like the nickname "Big Jelly" a whole lot less.

I'm a part of an airline's mileage club, and they also give you points if you dine at select restaurants. Normally I ignore the emails I get encouraging me to use the program more, but I gotta admit, they got my attention this time:
