Damn it’s cold!

Real Minnesota winter has finally arrived, with real temperatures of -9F and wind chills of -36F! SubEvilBoy and I bravely walked in regardless, but it’s supposed to be even worse tomorrow (real temp of -24F with wind chill of -45F at walking in time), so we may wimp out and use vehicles to move people around.

Ah, another Minnesota citrus crop gone to hell… :-)

Currently listening to “Alonso Cachiguano” by Nanda Manachi from the album Los Exitos del Milenio that Misty bought for me in Ecuador. Cool stuff. Really hard to get useful info on these folks, though. Tower Records in Ecuador doesn’t even list this album (although it does list two others). Andean folk music? Quechua? Still cool stuff.

Given the weather, maybe I should be listening to Baikal ice instead.

Love that dog is a wonderful little gem

Love That Dog                                                                    (Joanna Cotler Books)
SubEvilBoy got Love that dog by Sharon Creech from Otto for his birthday, and I read it while we were in Arkansas for the holidays. It took maybe 15-20 minutes (tops!) to read, and was a truly wonderful little piece. It’s in the form of a set of poems written by boy in late elementary(?) school, and in precious few words speaks volumes about the characters and the nature of poetry and expression. Full marks.

Currently listening to random loud noises coming from the loop at KUMM. Some good songs have wandered by, but I have no idea what any of them are…
