    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      "Why are my thoughts so loud?" is brilliant. That is exactly how Ithaca feels in February. The inside of your head is like a horror movie until you get used to it.

        If I lived down there, I'd be XC skiing into town just to troll.

          My aunt (RIP) used to live in Gainesville. A neighbor asked how to get ice off the windshield. Aunt said, "just pour boiling water on your windshield." The neighbor went back inside to boil some water, came out a bit later, and my aunt finally stopped that idiocy. Aunt wanted to see how far it would go.

            That's amazing. I wonder if the windshield would have shattered.

              It had a good chance of doing so, hence my aunt stopping the prank. Throwing hot water on an ice-covered glass surface is a BAD IDEA.

                  Big north wind today, so all the dirt dust and sand in Iraq that can escape is. Still better than driving in white snow

                      We were kind of cut from the same cloth. We got along very nicely.

                        Dumb question. Are sand storms sudden or do you see them coming from a long way off and have time to react (by, say, getting the f-ck off the road)?

                        My only knowledge of them comes from action movies which of course I trust as sober scientific documents.

                              I’ve yet to see a blinding one. So far they have just been like haze, cutting visibility down. Being in the city here it’s not as though there is loose sand to be picked up locally. Mookie for example is right on the water so much of what gets here has dissipated but then off the open fields of Iraq
