Is there a big enough body of water around those parts that he can operate his Sail Phone on?
On the news this morning, I actually saw something about Hastings, Nebraska getting a lot of snow this weekend. Maybe he got lost looking for a Lilith Fair concert.
Supposed to be 75 degrees this coming week. I'm sure the authorities will find him when the snow melts.
Some of this story is actually true.

The part about it being 70 this week is actually accurate, the rest not so much. We did have a blizzard last week, not much snow falling but 70 mph winds whipping it around pretty good. A little tough to see where you're going in conditions like that. Definitely getting the March lamb/lion weather combo this year.

But you were looking for The Lilith Fair, right?

Loving this warm weather - even got sunburned at a local Irish parade Sunday. Got to spend some time with TopDroog at my favorite microbrew after the parade ...
Going to be nearly or actually 80 or more here today. Quite a warmup from -20 not all that long ago.

St Patty's Weekend in Cheecago. It was already crazy at 8:00 AM. I went to a Scottish restaurant for lunch for my fish and chips. I think I broke a rule or something.

Ended up with seven inches of heavy wet snow, blizzard conditions and lost power for about 12 hours. Glad all that is resolved.

Yesterday we had tornado warnings, a little bit of pea sized hail, and then an inch of snow this morning. It's all gone now.
Snow, blizzard, hail, tornados? ... have any of you ever considered that there might be better places to live?
Meanwhile, we have spring .....

I hadn't thought of this but I was reading the Chicago Sun-Times today and a columnist said if the White Sux increase their win total by 20 games this year (a very impressive feat in one season), they will still lose over 100 games.

My friend told me from April - June you can get into any game at Comiskey for $20 and sit wherever you want. Something like that. I kind of doubt it. I am going June 5th against the Tiggers.

Hey coot -
Have you heard from Chad recently? I saw this segment on the local news this morning that yesterday the first astronomical clock in North America is back up and running in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Isn't that where he lives (or did)?
It must have been a slow news day.

We still hang out and stay in touch often. He's in the Des Moines area now, no longer CR.
