Almost forgot: Midway airport (Chicago's other airport) is shut down until 3-pm, due to dense fog...

Go figure!

[Soaring Feather]

You are getting socked this year! It has been open here so far may change at any time though.

[Soaring Feather]

The snow we had is gone. It’s very damp and crappy out there.

[SevenofNine]

[Lady Jag]

CALM

If you know the point of balance,
You can settle the details.
If you can settle the details,
You can stop running around.
Your mind will become calm.
If your mind becomes calm,
You can think in front of a tiger.
If you can think in front of a tiger,
You will surely succeed.

New use for Windex 


(I haven't checked " snopes.com" to see if this actually works or not. )

But they say, if you ever get the sudden urge to run around naked, 

you should drink some Windex first. 





It'll keep you from streaking.

[Lady Jag]

You forgot to say how cold it’s been. I looked at the Natl weather map and it looks like a North Pole Low has been stalled over you, yes, GPS says you, for a tortuous winter. We had one like that about 4 years ago and you have my sympathies.

To feel better, go out and buy a few cases of beer and put them on the back porch for when it snows again. Then as beer appears through the snow, drink it. It might make all the weather crap you’ve had a little easier.

Tomkow maybe you could do own reality home building show on TLC or replace Martha Stewart LOL!

Well BBC wire claim 100,000 people are running away from fighting in Chad

[SevenofNine]

OMG too funny Israeli intellgence reporting did Vlady gave Syria some Soviet style planes that haven’t been in use for 20 year according to Jerserlum Post maybeee

[Lady Jag]

It'll keep you from streaking.

Yeahbut, you only want to stop streaking when you are cold.

[Lady Jag]

Atmospheric fog eats snow.

Mental fog needs a nap.

[Lady Jag]

We've had a whiter winter than we've had in 4 or 5 years
and I'm not tired of it yet.
Just think of how hot summer can get.
Sorry, Tom, your winter would change my mind.

[Soaring Feather]

CALM

Very nice poem and graphic. Thank You.

[Soaring Feather]

We have been open for most Winters about the same amount of time you have been white.

[Soaring Feather]

YOURS!

[Lady Jag]

The graphic is of a famous saying in Britain during WWII that lives on today in memory, prints and t-shirts.

I knew a couple who worked for the British war effort in London at the time and they were the essence of calm, God bless them.

[Lady Jag]

The past 3 winters have been wicked mild and don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it. When snow came early I must admit it wasn’t too welcome yet when it stayed I became happy about finally having it again. We have had lots of beautiful wintry days this season.

[Soaring Feather]

A fresh snow fall is beautiful I agree. I do enjoy seeing the landscape all fresh and new and white. It is a painting of nature the truest artist.

I have to sign off now, going to calling hours for a friend.
