Biden did ask, Congress did provide, and he did object.

Looking at the graph of sea surface temps, I noted that there seemed to be fairly distinct bands. Assuming the lighter the blue, the more recent the year, it looks like there have been several distinct step changes in sea-surface temps in the last four decades. Going to the source, my assumption is ...

Wouldn't that be a false-check?

So Putin is Trump's crimp-daddy?

Joni Ernst (R-IA) says the GOP should block President Biden’s State of the Union speech: “We don’t have a national security strategy … Nor do we have his budget … Because of that we want to stop him from actually delivering th...

"Oh good, they brought snacks"

The fact that the newspaper report is so vauge probably means that it was actually the Tranz Kid that started it. And the fact that it was so vague about injuries means that there was probably very little injuries from the scuffle. Saying he had the crap beaten out of him is not supported by the av...

8 months is a long time

Today is Leap Day, the only time in my career that I'll get a third payday in February (other than the one time I was paid weekly), and my Collector's Edition of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth just arrived. I'm celebratin'!

Also, February is my favorite month.

Bands of storms almost all through. One more soon, and then temps are going to plunge. It's 63 degrees here now at noon; it will plummet to a low of 25 overnight. Our high yesterday was 10 degrees higher and our overnight low was 10 degrees lower. I've felt like I've been walking with a fractured k...

Indeed. It's not always as fraught a situation as people make out (and never ever stay in a bad relationship 'for the kids').

The best thing that ever happened to me was when my mom divorced my father, rivalled only by meeting Dr. Vicklund. And I definitely lucked out in the step-dad department.

No, but the image of Trump getting taken down by a bounty hunter is amusing.

It was one hell of a light show, but when I got up this morning, our outage map only showed three outages affecting 23 customers. 11 years ago, we probably would have had over 1000 customers without power. Amazing what proper line maintenance can do for reliability.

Welcome to February in Michigan:

The storm is hitting us, hard enough to rattle the house. Looks like we could get by up to three bands, though the last one would just clip us.

Behold the power of South Park!

It's headed right toward us.

Not to make light of a dangerous situation, but this is where my brain went:

I work for an electric (and water) utility, and occasionally get weather alerts. When we do, it means get ready to hunker down.

Yep, got one this afternoon for tonight and tomorrow...

We suspect something like that happened with my FIL on Facebook. My MIL passed away in July, and then last fall "Joyce" was supposed to be coming out to visit from the UK over Christmas. Then there were a bunch of excuses, and when we looked at her FB profile, it was an obvious fake. Don'...
