Major Winter Weather Event
For once they got it right
Yesterday morning
Today same time
The stonewall disappeared , and there's two feet of snow all over everything.. This morning we weren't sure just how much there was: with the wind it was a tossup if we had 8" or 72 feet.

Reporting in
Yesterday my monitor went black and refused to work. "maybe,' i said, "it's the monitor and not the tower".
"no, no,' he said, "there's a disconnect somewhere, it could take days to find it"
"why don't we plug in the old monitor and see"
"no no ", he said, "you just don't understand. The tower just isnt getting the signal from the monitor, that's why its' not working. Let me think about this."
"Look, here's the old monitor. let's just plug it in and see." sigh. grumble fuss. "I just don't see what good it will do."
"what does it cost to try?"
It was the monitor.
Now I have a nice new one; however its one of those silly wide screen jobs, and it took me all afternoon to figure out how to resize the images so they don't stretch clean across the whole screen. 'You wont like it", he said. "it just distorts everything".
nooo it works just fine *g*
----------------------------------------------------
And now we are sailing into what appears to be either the storm of the century, a storm of historical proportions, or a huge embarrassment. In a way it's like waiting for Santa. He never lives up to the
buildup, I sincerely hope this one is equally disappointing...Film, as they say, at 11.
