Nippy

Overnight low about -15 F, warmed up all the way to -3 for my newspaper walk -- we got a blanket of clouds in overnight.  Very little wind.  Supposed to binge on heat today, up into the 20s F, with prospect of 40s over the weekend and early next week.  Don't know what we'll do with all those spare degrees.

Not thrilled with the results  on either side of the Iowa politicking -- no desire for a theocracy running the country, close as we are to one already, and I'm afraid Obama looks shallow to me.  Don't know what he'd actually, you know, do if he gets elected.

But then, I don't like anybody very much.

Bonus points for the song reference, again.  The original lyrics are depressingly topical, for something fifty years old...

One of the myriad joys of winter in Maine

Scraping frost off the inside of the windshield.
