  1. Dear St. Peter's Hospital in New Brunswick, NJ: You'd best treat my grandmother better than you did my grandfather or we will have issues.

  2. Working on a new project charter and drafting a position description. Sure beats a kick in the teeth. It also really beats shoveling snow.

  3. Seven of the next ten days on the ten-day weather forecast contain that dreaded four-letter word, "snow." Someone's gonna pay. (i.e., me.)

  4. Okay, people, Operation Fertilize-State-College's-Walkways is a go. Now I just need a zippo and a canine who can projectile-poo on command.

  5. Got cited for not clearing snow from "entire width" of sidewalk. News to me, but no big. Wonder if there's a rule against flaming dog-crap.

  9. The Saints have been downgraded to the "Who 'at Nation" because there apparently ain't any 'D' to be found.

  10. Frankly, I think all would be better if I were the one playing guitar up there and Pete was here drinking gin and posting snarky tweets.

  11. I just kicked off my new tradition of drinking gin during Super Bowl half-time. Who will join me in this new American tradition? #

  12. Wanted to see the Saints get into the end zone there, but appreciated that the stop came from two former Scarlet Knights: Foster & Brackett!

  13. I'm looking to read some PDFs on my Android phone. Have any favorite viewers? Free is best, but I'd pay for a good PDF viewer.

  14. Periodic audio skips and digital artifacts w/ CBS HD (WTAJ) via Comcast in 16801. Not that anyone will watch CBS today... Pls fix kthx!

  15. Not sure who to root for in this Caps/Pens game, but how can I not enjoy a game w/ Ovechkin, Crosby, Semin, Malkin, etc.? #

  16. On paper, Them Crooked Vultures are just about the best band ever: John Paul Jones, Josh Homme, Dave Grohl, and Alain Johannes. Unreal.

  17. Continuing my campaign of discouraging usage of the word "repository" at MPOW. New tactic: if you use the word "repo," -you- must define it.
