1. So we should get the stores to put out swimwear and 4th of july decorations before Easter?

2. I adore you.

   (12-14″ at my house, no electricity.)

3. Next: dogs and cats living together (because it’s warmer that way).

   Not snowing here in Georgia (yet!), but it was damn cold this morning.

4. At least we will get the bad driving during the first snow storms out of the way early. Right??

5. Geri: Yikes!

   Peter: I admire your optimism.

   :-)

6. I moved from Northern Minnesota to California, so I’ve never gotten over the idea that trick or treating in the snow is the normal state of things in the midwest.

10. Wow. I feel kind of guilty now. I bought two Christmas ornaments today. They are owls and pretty darn cute, but still.

12. So I see The Penguin was successful.

13. So far my part of Canada remains snow free: it’s been a nice sunny afternoon here. (Sorry, I missed the morning completely)

14. Amen

15. Tim, I think its Immortal trick-or-treating…

17. In my early years ’round these parts, Halloween costumes were usually of the “Yoda in a winter-coat” variety. Are those *umbrellas* I see?
