49 Out of 50 is Pretty Compelling
by Steve West on January 13, 2011

Forty-nine out of fifty states currently have snow on the ground from recent snowfalls. Guess which state is the only one without snow. That's right, Brenda. It's Florida. Take a look out our front window. See that white stuff piled in our front yard. None of that in Florida right now. Even Hawaii has friggin' snow! Only one more reason we should move to the Sunshine State. Are you listening to me?
She can't hear me 'cause she's wearing earmuffs even in our climate controlled living room. It's freaking cold outside.

My Ball Got Whacked With Monkey Poo
I love miniature golf. Back in college, I spent many a drunken evening goofing off with friends, avoiding the last few pages of a term paper, or just getting the cheap thrill of pretending you're an athlete by getting your ball into Mickey Mouse's left eye to win a free game. Eat me, Arnold Palmer! Go »
Landscaping
It's too late now but I should have taken and posted a picture of my quaint (translation: small) front yard. Brenda and I (translation: Brenda) decided that in order to sell our house at a more attractive price, it should look more attractive to potential buyers. Makes sense, I guess. Go »

Tonight, I momentarily felt a cold draft coming from the pet door that leads to the lanai.
That's about it.
