We got a dusting of snow around here, accompanied, as is often the case, by some warmer weather, which is quite the relief. Unfortunately, the forecast calls for rain followed by sub-zero temperatures in our near future, which is a great combination to create impossible conditions.

Man was that some wild football over the weekend. I am still scratching my head over a couple of the coaching decisions along the way, but it all did add up to fine entertainment, so I won't get too worked up about it... one of the benefits of not having a rooting interest in any of the teams involved.
