-7 degrees here, but at least there has been no new snow to speak of for sometime.

What's the point of -7, if there isn't any snow?

See what you did here...3" new snow over night.

Now hush about snow!

Good luck Limr and anyone else!
I was thinking of a backpack with supplies also but Pgriz beat me. I was in the Boston area fro blizzard of '78. We were newly weds in a very old building and we swore the building was moving in the wind!
I know a few us our members in Boston area too...stay safe!

So you were newlyweds, and you felt the building swaying. Coincidence? I think not.

It CAME! But it doesn't all work together! Sorta yay!

I'm sure all you need is a little duct tape and a butter knife to bring it all together.

Glad you got it all. BTW, your WB kinda sux.

I have a pair of the Audio Technica's in "white", I use them in the bedroom. Got these black ones for the study and/or mobile. They're sweet sounding cans for sure! Hook that little amp inline from my iPhone and it's like having studio sound! Well, "almost".

All I know is the bigger the driver the bigger the bass and really that's the most important thing.

Or at least that's what the trendiness of Dre Beats tells me.

I'm not into self-afflicted pain. I'll just have to put up with mowing the yard, playing with the butterflies and hummers, relax by the pond and drink wine in the patio.

As for miso... it's kinda funny, but I'm quite deaf and hearing annoying noises is not one of my life's complaints. However, my wife's hearing is perfect as she can hear me thinking two rooms away. Fortunately, I have not been smothered in my sleep, given the number of noises a human body can make especially when sleeping, and her saintly tolerance of all my idiosyncrasies.

I have miso. AND significant hearing loss. It's truly what keeps me from probably going postal on someone due to the miso.

Completely off-topic (not that there is ever quite a "topic" in the Coffee House!"), but your comment about your wife for some reasons reminded me of a little story.

During the last several months of his life, my dad broke his hip and had to be hospitalized. Because of 1) his dementia and 2) his obstinance, someone had to be in the room with him 24/7 to keep them from "restraining" him, because he would CONSTANTLY pick at his IV and try to pull it out, or try to get up out of bed (usually because, if you asked him, it was "time to go home.").
So, we took turns and whoever's turn it was to spend the night could look forward to pretty much NOT sleeping.

I went in one morning to start my "shift," after my sister had stayed the night with him. I asked her how it had gone and she said:

"You see all those pillows? (there were about SIX pillows all piled up on the couch from where we kept getting nurses to bring us more) The ONLY reason we made it through the night is because I kept staring at those pillows, but I couldn't decide whether to smother HIM or ME."

Y'all need to stop mentioning Miso; I keep thinking about fermented soybeans and soup!

Unrelated: My lovely wife (aka "Slinky") has control of her arm back. She also has gotten some sleep and is feeling better, some of which I'm sure is due to the narcs she's been prescribed.

Since we're talking beans and Boston among other things, I'm watching the Beanpot tonight on NESN. BU and Harvard in OT and there's still another game to go.

When I saw yesterday that the Beanpot of all things got rescheduled I knew something must've frozen over.

 

[vintagesnaps]

Looks like it might be a late night, but as one of the guys doing color for NESN said, college hockey is alive and well.



BU scored to win game #1. Jack Parker in the house. They've zammed the ice, refs coming out, players warming up, almost time for BC and Northeastern, go Huskies (and whoever plays BC next Monday! lol).
