still winter....

The work week is now half over, at least for those of us who work M – F anyway.  And finally, for the first time this morning, I was able to drive to work without Snowzilla impacting the commute as the snow continues to melt rapidly – having the night above freezing [which is really unusual this time of year] has accelerated the melt considerably.    But ten days after the snow stopped falling, there are still HUGE blocks of packed snow and ice on corners and sidewalks forcing pedestrians to walk out in the roads.    At least they have shrunk enough that you can kinda see around them now, but it is an extremely unsafe situation to say the least.
 
Today is:
  • American Painters Day
  • Elmo's Birthday – and if you don’t know who Elmo is then all I can say is that you haven’t had a toddler around for at least 25 years.  Just for the record?  He is 3 ½ years old….
  • Four Chaplains Memorial Day
  • National Carrot Cake Day
  • National Cordova Ice WormDay  (( yes ice worms really exist, but fortunately they really are not fifty feet long))
  • National Girls and Women in Sports Day
  • National Patient Recognition Day
  • National Wedding Ring Day
  • Take a Cruise Day
  • The Day the Music Died
Personally I don’t see why having Barcelona and Provence united is such big deal, but it happened in 1112 because the heads of each state got married to each other – it was his third dynastic marriage actually as he was consolidating his position.  Of much more import to me is the fact that in 1913 the Sixteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution is ratified, authorizing the Federal government to impose and collect an income tax.  And in 1972 the deadliest snowstorm in history started in Iran --  at least 4,000 people died.
 
On that note, I think I am ready to daydream about taking that cruise….
