Snow, and crazy mountain views
I feel like I haven’t been posting, but sometimes life intervenes. We had an injured cat that needed to to to the shop. Apparently, it’s not like leaving your car with the mechanic. I mean, how cool would that be? Nahh, I like my furry pal, and for those of us who are cat people,…

Imagery
You all know I obsess over radio antennas, and the imagery that they provide. I’ve found some new sources, so, without further ado… My favorite of these are the ones in Nevada. Who knew there were tall mountains in Nevada? California has a large number of these, and they move around. They use them to…

More Weather Dickdom
We’ll start by showing some cool snow pictures. Images courtesy Colorado Department of Transportation. They were live at the time I posted this. I also want to give them, and highway departments everywhere a shout-out, for keeping traffic somehow moving in the face of stuff like this. Don’t be a dick to the plow people.…

Snow, part deux
Everywhere but here, as usual. Photos are from CDOT highway cameras from around the state. The furthest one of these from me is about 100 miles from me. Curious? Peek for yourself here. I guess I’m a little weather obsessed, and it’s ok to talk about that, isn’t it? And weather has some interesting connections…

Taking the plunge
Well, Sunday was my last night driving pizza. It marks a number of milestones for me. It’s the first time I’ve left a job and not burned the bridge behind me. Certainly we’ve all done irresponsible stuff, and that’s always been my thing. I put in proper notice, worked every last hour, and left with…

Monday Morning
Happy Monday, faithful reader(s)! You may have seen in the news, about a fire burning not far from where I live. It’s contained now, but made an impressive smoke plume for a few days. Anyway, the owners of the camera I grab these shots from moved the camera, so now it’s pointing more or less…

Early Morning
My sleep has always been something of a disjointed mess. I don’t generally have problems falling asleep, but I wake up much too early. I woke up at 3AM today, and now I’m sitting here, almost 6AM, and I realize it’s nice. And, sometimes you see cool stuff when you’re not really looking for it.…

Beating the heat
I don’t know about where you are, but here, it’s hot. There’s no adjective you can apply to this to make it any more significant. It’s hot. But it’s a dry heat, which is actually true here. 100 here is a lot more tolerable than, say, 90 in New Orleans. But regardless of where you…

Weather dickdom
It’s summer, and it’s probably hot where you are. It’s hot where I am, that’s for sure. Dickdom is a creeping, subtle thing that finds its way into people before they know it. You ever watch the weather, and there’s a map covered with 3-digit temperatures, and across the whole thing in big letters it…
