Roof shoveling guys came by. The did a good job. Left me with a clear driveway (already cleared from the big storm, cleared snow they removed from roof) path to my oil tank, compacted path from my front door.

Small critter makes tracks across my yard. Think it’s the black cat that comes around. They look healthy so not a stray, I’m just on their route.

I think my shed is doomed (Doomed I tell you!). Was already deteriorating because who builds a shed of particle board anyway?

Я вас люби´л: любо´вь ещё, быть мо´жет,
В душе´ мое´й уга´сла не совсе´м;
Но пусть она´ вас бо´льше не трево´жит;
Я не хочу´ печа´лить вас ниче´м.
Я вас люби´л безмо´лвно, безнаде´жно,
То ро´бостью, то ре´вностью томи´м;
Я вас люби´л так и´скренно, так не´жно,
Как дай вам Бог люби´мой быть други´м.
В душе´ мое´й уга´сла не совсе´м;
Но пусть она´ вас бо´льше не трево´жит;
Я не хочу´ печа´лить вас ниче´м.
Я вас люби´л безмо´лвно, безнаде´жно,
То ро´бостью, то ре´вностью томи´м;
Я вас люби´л так и´скренно, так не´жно,
Как дай вам Бог люби´мой быть други´м.

First real snow of the year. Temperature is right at freezing so it’s wet and heavy. Expect 13-24 inches over the next few days. Made it to the IGA grocery store to stock up, not going anywhere soon.

I’m trying to decide my favorite Christmas album. It’s between Aaron Neville, a Soulful Christmas, Hawaiian slack key guitar Christmas (various artists), and Willie Nelson “Pretty Paper”.

Don’t know who this guy is but he must be from Massachusetts the way he says “mautah” for martyr. Great video describing Nixon prior to present day reaction

I just got a payment of 44.32 from Stark et al vs PayPal. I haven’t used PayPal in years since I learned what a jerk Peter Theil is. So this seems legit but I need to spend the money. Contribution to a legit cause?

I mourn the death of # as I mourn the death of any person. Yet he also reaped what he sowed. I mourn the death of 50,000 civilians in Gaza. I mourn the families separated by ICE. I mourn the loss of liberty for any Spanish speaking person. Yet still, I mourn the loss of any person.

@dieworkwear.bsky.social you should probably comment on this. Kurosawa and Mifune in Venice 1960. It’s going around on the internet. Probably with the release of High and Low. Damn Fine.
