So--what am I reading today (3/8)?

Starting off with this piece on Tom Engehardt's blog.

Well--it is now 3/9. I simply didn't get back to posting yesterday. Let's see what happens today.

It has been cold and icy with rain, freezing rain, and snow sometimes all at once it seemed. Winter is definitely reminding us it hasn't left yet. The temperatures have been just high enough that much of the ice and snow melted. At least we aren't out on the east coast. They are looking at a possible third nor'easter before completely digging out of the last two. I finally finished straightening up the all-purpose room--a good name for a storage/plant/sewing/whatnot room. I hope to start going through the file cabinet today.

David Kaiser recaps the last 13 years since he started his blog History Unfolding. Not a pretty account and not a hopeful prognosis.
