With the looming threat of a gigantic oncoming snow and ice-storm readying to affect 30 states, with Illinois and Chicago right in the center of it's sights, I thought I'd give you a yardstick to compare this incoming storm.

Today is a beautiful day.  The sun is shining off of the ice crystals on the ground, and the turf, at Soldier Field, is appropriately salted, to keep it from icing up (and to rub salt in the wounds of the Greenbay Cheeseypoofs when they are smashed to the ground... ooops, did I say that 'out loud...

An attempt was made to "tag" me recently, by my former "lurker" Kim McMahon (that's her photo over on the left... isn't she cute?).  It was a very nice thought, on her part.  It's an indication that she reads my blog, likes what I have to say, and would like to know more about me.
