Snow Day! (Without SNOW)

5 things:

1.  All the skool kids and teachers hereabouts are celebrating a day off skool today thanks to a bit of snow on the ground and lots of breathless weather emergency reports yesterday.

2.  Maureen Dowd sticks it to Dick Cheney this morning.  Do you suppose he knows?  Or cares?

3.  No baby yet in Chicago.  Grandson still "liking" messages of support on FB.

4.  A person I know was told by his doctors some 30 years ago that he would not survive another two years unless he changed his eating/drinking habits.  He just laughed.  A typical dinner for him in those days would be 1 bottle of vodka, a steak, a package of frozen green beans with dumplings (remember those?), and for dessert, a half gallon of ice cream which he shared with his dog.  He was married for more than 50 years and took care of his wife himself when she got sick with her final illness.  He got married again last week at the age of 89.  God love ya, mr. new bridegroom!  Am rethinking the health-giving benefits of having a dog.

5.  The pope and cardinals are giving homosexuality a bad name!
