    Yep. Al Gore was right. We're all going to die.
    'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"
    G'Kar - from Babylon 5 episode "Z'ha'dum"

      We've had occasional flurries, but they all disappeared within a day or two. An ice storm early this week left about two inches of ice, some of which is still here despite the last three days of 45-55F degree weather (in January, in Maine, which officially qualifies as "ain't right".) Average high temperature for January is 28F, low is 8F.

      Starting to get kind of worried about not having any snowpack to melt this summer, too...

            Last winter didn't get serious until mid-January, so I won't give up on this one just yet. Still, December was nothing sort of freakish.

                            I ride off (or run if I can't ride) into a random direction, muttering something incomprehensible about better business opportunities.
