Hey, folks,

Sometimes it feels like DC is in the center of some kind of cosmic demolition derby. For the past few years, we've gotten slammed with 'once in a century' storms at least twice a year. And here comes the next one.

Not that I mean to complain, or anything. I just wish they'd come up with better names. I mean, it's one thing to have one's power out for a week, while one literally freezes in the dark. But to name its cause Snowgasm? It seems beyond the pale. Then there was Snowpocalypse. And just a couple months ago, we all had to learn a new word: Derecho.

At least that name had a Castilian flair. Spanish is, after all, the loving tongue. But Frankenstorm? Snowicane? Seriously, who picks these things?

Looks like this one is gonna hit right between DC and Philly. For those who know hurricanes, that means DC is on the dirty side. Again. Dang! And the track has been moving South all day:



There must be some really awful Karma in this town. You know it's bad when people are starting to call it Beelzebub's bowling alley!

Thanks,

Bill
