OO, Phoenicians. There's a book I'm eyeing in Hoopla that apparently argues they didn't exist as a people or ethnicity but, like the so-called "Sea Peoples" of the late Bronze Age, are actually a mix of peoples that got conflated by later writers.
what's the book called? sounds interesting
 
Probably a good plan. I was out briefly on my lunch hour. Not too terrible here. -8C or so with a wind chill around -15. Definitely warmer, for certain values of "warmer", than yesterday.

We're back in rainy season. It was weird yesterday. Our summer park is about 45 minutes north of our current location. As we got to the northern edge of the city, we saw it was dry. It was sunny with blue skies when we approached the next town. It was wild. Of course the reverse happened on the way home.

So the LAST of the snow is melting away.

We can only wish. I need to figure how to shrink the piles at the end of my driveway without making my back and joints any worse than they are already. They are a serious visibility problem.

I had some stupid lady give me the hairy eyeball today, as I gradually inched into an intersection, trying desperately to see if there was anything coming. She had to veer a little with lots of notice, but would she rather I'd blindly gone out and hit her, FFS?

It is very helpful that I live on a quiet little street with an awkward crescent exit, so it's very not busy except for residents, and there's only about 25 of us.

We are similar. More houses than that but we are near one end so that limits the number of passing motorists a bit.
 
Sigh. Flurries all the way into work. Forecast for 2cm in period of snow this afternoon. Just what we need. More snow.

-10F (-23C) when I left at 6 AM...36F (+2C ish) when I returned home at 1:40 PM...papers all delivered. It's now 40F (5C) and melting
 
Just received a call from Reader's Digest ... although RD stopped publication in Canada in 24 ... what can a stupid person make of that?

Is the bigger part of America going to feed us more oddities? Would Steven Banyan and his crew buy into that as fast as Cacao futures?

Solution: blame it on the alternate reflection ... a dark mire ... spectacular stupidity ... it exists and spreads easily because you do not have to think about it ... thinking is difficult for those overloaded with will ... mind the coyotes ...

How does one test for sanity ... present the candidates with a stupid choice and see who wins ? Gotcha ... imagine vacuum bags ...
