Snowmageddonpocalypse 2016

Snowmageddonpocalypse 2016.
Two feet of snow is a record for this date in DC? Go figure. I seem to recall worse snowfalls obviously not on this date. This is what it looked like this morning after the first predicted day of snowfall. Apparently this will happen again today and maybe be done for now. I've already shoveled about 1/3 of it but I'll have to repeat it after the secondary snowfall. Tomorrow, yeah tomorrow. Plenty of food, plenty of heat, and plenty of power - so far...
Update 4:00 pm - This storm is supposedly winding down but it's going down hard. Nearly white-out conditions outside of my house caused by swirling winds of sustained 30 mph. There's a 5 ft. drift near my front door that will easily be over 6 ft. before it's over. Still doesn't appear like it will be something that can't be dealt with fairly easily as long as people stay off the roads as much as possible tomorrow and let the cleaning crews do their thing.

Halloween Post #4: Hellovader
For many people, costumes are very time consuming efforts. I tend to be more minimalist. For example, I could actually envision myself attending a Halloween costume party with Amy and she would be dressed like the Darth pussycat she is, and I would have on not much more than Fonzie socks.

This is a true story I saw on a travel blog website. Late one night, a woman and her husband received the tragic news that their three-year-old grandson in Denver had been murdered by their daughter’s live-in boyfriend. The boy was being taken off life support at 9 o’clock that evening and his parents opted for organ donation which would take place immediately upon his passing.

It's the eve of 420 and you don't have to be high to enjoy the following links, but it couldn't hurt. When this clock goes into production, it will be featured in my den. Smart dog or dumb dog? Go »Dumb Criminals And Other Court Type Stuff Part 2

After a week of hype by news media, the storm sounds bad but of course not as bad as predicted. Some photos even make it look pretty. As long as your power stays on, you should be fine. Keep warm, Wests.
