The Day After

More photos from the big October storm. This one shows my car, mostly buried.
This one shows our house, through the tree in our front yard that's heavily laden with snow.
This last one is actually a view down the middle of the street. The branches, which were normally lifted well above street level, were dragged way down by the weight of the snow. Posted by Picasa

Opening Comments

I intend the title of this blog to indicate two things: a slant to the political Left, and a predisposition towards complex narratives displaying, I hope, the "great fancy" referenced by Thomas Hobbes in the quotation from Leviathan above, but not the folly. Digression is a speciality of mine, and parenthetical comments, meanderings, etc., are a joy of my life. If folly they be, then c'est la vie. We are what we are, and I am going to open parentheses (at least I expect to!) quite a bit, regardless.
