Your card arrived today! Some of the ink was slightly 'blurred' on the
envelope due to ice/snow/rain storm today.

When I went out this morning the wooden steps and concrete sidewalk were
slickery as...snot! About 3 mm of ice from freezing rain, plus a light
layer of fresh rain - nice low friction wet ice. The roads were OK on
the way to work but got much worse as the day progressed; schools
closed, traffic snarls, the works (or not works??).

Got home today and my spouse informed me that the teenage son was sick
with flu. I asked if he needed to go to the doctor (since he *hates*
going to the doctor). About 10 minutes later he came down and asked to
go to the doctor - he needed a note for work that he was scheduled for
tonight. He really is sick though, with classic symptoms of the
whatever-is-going-around 'flu'.

Me, too. :>

I watched the Puppy Bowl, on the Animal Planet. Or, I had the Puppy Bowl
on the TV while I pottered around. St. Bernard puppies are so cute! But
how would I fit a full grown dog of that size in my little house? Hmmm.

For those not in the USA, the Puppy Bowl is counter-programming for the big
Superbowl football game. They take a dozen puppies and put them in a room
decorated to look like a small football field -- green, goal lines painted
on the floor -- with a bunch of toys. Turn on video cameras. Film for two
hours. Turn off cameras. If they sell one commercial, they've made a profit.

The Puppy Bowl has gotten more elaborate with time -- they have a kitten
half-time, now. Kittens in a room with confetti and glittering stuff,
mostly looking confused. And they put cameras below clear-bottomed water
bowls, so you can see little tongues slurping when the puppies drink.

Still probably the cheapest show on the air. Possibly the cutest, too.
