    do I have to buy the songs in the iTunes stores that I got at amazon?  or is there a way to bring the amazon music to the iTunes library?

    I don't know.  I hate iTunes!  Diane has to use it for her iPod, but I think it's crap software.  I think if you paid for it at a legitimate outlet, you shouldn't have to pay for it again.  If you do, then it's time to sue Apple!

    I am not looking forward to any s n o w

    I'd like to see a snow drift sometime :)

    Look at my profile pic, ummm...avatar.  I'm standing in one.  My feet never made it to ground level, the snow compressed beneath my feet and I stopped sinking probably at least six to eight inches above ground level.  It's deeper behind me.

    So snow it is a little like sand, which will drift like that in layers against a fence if the prevailing wind allows, don't think you could make that with a snow machine, which would be the closest I'm gonna get here :)

    Not a good idea!  It might melt.  Or it might release toxins into your drink/food.

    cup says it's 10% recycled.  toxins don't sound so far fetched.

     

    all the blizzardy talk puttin me in daquiri mood.  banana daquiris!

    Blizzard == snow or some kind of mutoid buzzard ? Oh wow big thunder here, flashes must be real high :)

    Blizzard is snow with sustained winds of a certain speed...I think 40mph or higher, I'm not positive.  But the result is snow moving nearly horizontally as it comes down.  It means drifts that can be quite deep.  It means the "wind chill" is freaking frigid.  it means one side of your house may be clean, the other side (being hit by the wind) may have snow stuck to it from top to bottom and maybe even a couple inches thick.  It means that if you are out in it, with face unprotected, it will feel like your face is being sandblasted...with ice rather than sand.  It means, stay home and drink hot chocolate!  It means perhaps you can find the front steps if you work at it.  indecision

    Dana

    uh OK thanks I got confused cos it isn't on the list of precipitation types but I guess from the description the blizzard comes after the snow forms. Think I would prefer to walk in a snowdrift to a blizzard. There is horizontal rain? Oh I see, the wind is horizontal, was going to say wow stuff is sure different north of here laugh

    ...really really annoyed that I no longer can use an ad blocker on YouTube.

    The worst are those pop up text ads that appear right in the video window.

    Google has an adblocker but it only works with their Chrome Browser which in turn does not play well with some of the sites I frequent.

    I hate being assaulted by adverts.

    Isn't it just an ad blocker bug after an update ? I got an email, prolly by accident,  about this:

    https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=526413#c7

    a while ago maybe the bug is just filtering through the ecosystem ? Don't think it would be by design.

    My driveway still isn't plowed.  Apparently the neighbors are perfectly content with parking their cars at the bottom of the driveway.  I've made arrangements to get it plowed on Saturday.  I have to go out to get prescriptions and to do laundry.

    This morning I look out my kitchen window and there's an unknown man chipping ice off our cellar entrance.  He must be a plumber because this goes on for about 20 minutes then the noise stops and I look out and see a hose coming out of the basement draining water!   Either that or he's stealing our water! surprise

    That's nothing.  I've watched light snow, on a day when it's just slightly breezy off and on, sometimes drift back upwards before it comes down!  I've seen all kinds of things in New England!   laugh

    Blizzard defined: Officially, the National Weather Service defines a blizzard as a storm which contains large amounts of snow OR blowing snow, with winds in excess of 35 mph and visibilities of less than 1/4 mile for an extended period of time (at least 3 hours).

    The whiteout conditions make travel very dangerous.

    50 is apparently the magic number for AARP.  They must have inside information somehow.  I started getting mail from them at 50 when I was still gainfully employed.  I just threw it in the trash for about 10 years till I started getting close to 62.  I joined about then and have remained a member since.  Although I'm not sure why.  Other than using an AARP discount at a motel a couple of times and getting that stupid monthly magazine with rotating interviews with the same few famous ancient actors telling me about how much better their retired life is than mine, I'm not sure what else I get from it other than scads of mail for life and health insurances.  AARP membership is cheap enough ($15/year) but I get more use out of a box of candy.
