You guys also want the ten below zero today along with the snow?  It is like 
Outer Mongolia here this winter.   When you think of one of those cartoons 
with some folks standing up to their hips in snow and icicles on their noses, 
Siberia, think of us.  Like an Al Capp strip here.

If memory serves, one other winter with snow and cold as this one was 
followed with tremendous bloom that we did not understand.  Maybe that will 
happen this spring.

Per radio this afternoon, we are colder than Oslo, Moscow, Minsk, and 
Calgary, Canada.  By the weekend we are forecast to be around 32 degrees in 
the afternoon.  I am getting annoyed with all this snow, don't know how we 
got so lucky.  First time in many years the Hudson River is frozen and needs 
an ice-breaker to send up the oil barges.
