    I'd love to send some snow your way, Ser. Some for Sjakihata too.

    Actually Red, after I retire Texas is on my list of places to move to. Maybe the Houston area.

    If we have a quick and prolonged warm spell, this much snow will end up in a lot of basements, mine included. However, it hasn't gotton above 20F for two weeks, mostly single digits and with windchills near -20 on many of them, the damn winds have been howling at 20 to 40 mph with few calm spells. The weather pattern doesn't look to change much. The beginning of winter the cold Canadian air had stayed far north of where I live, it was up to 50F on some days in January, with lots of rain. Now that cold air has dropped southward and all that rain has turned to snow. Thankfully, Lake Erie has frozen over so the lake-effect snow has stopped. Lake Ontario never freezes over so those to the south south-east are going to get hammered.

    Greg, we push the piles back as far as possible, the lawn's going to be a mess. Some municipalities have to truck the stuff to the boonies out of town.

    My part of the country was hitting record lows a few weeks ago, but that has passed and highs are in the 50's and 60's now. That picture makes me glad it never snows where I live.

    Houston is expensive and filled with dirty immagrants! Move to San Antonio or somewhere south of the city. Open spaces cheap land and the best food anywhere. Trust me Im not biased

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    The outskirts of Houston are actually quite nice.
