Hey Joan, it sure was a lot more fun writing about snowy nights while living & working in the Tampa Bay area! Right now it's about 4pm and the snow's still coming down ferociously. Anyway, last night before finally turning in I sneaked a peek outside my bedroom window at the streetlamp and original snowy night setting. The streetlamp remains the best gauge in determining how hard it's snowing. This is all bittersweet, in truth: we move in two weeks. Accordingly, the sight and sounds are being packed away for permanent storage in the boundaries of imagination...and cyberspace. Thank you, CAT. No, the Providence I had in mind is the one often labeled "Divine". I'm presently writing from New Jersey approximately 20 miles NW of Manhattan/George Washington Bridge. Just the same, you have unwittingly (and fortuitously) helped conjure up another appropriate instance of the evening wind 'underscoring' the stark contrast between the warmth and relative safety & security of huddling indoors away from the cold and unpredictable sinister elements of the world outside: Ethan Frome. Oh my, is there anything else like the winter nights of old New England? (My 40 something neighbors throwing out their backs shoveling) Don't rub it in! Instead, think of Charlie Sheen & Co. singing, That's the sound of the men, working on the chain...gaAAAAang, in Cadence.

"I'm sure Chris already got walloped in Pennsy worse than us here in Jersey" RIGHT, ZALDI! THIRTY INCHES OF SNOW! THREE - 0 ! I've been digging, digging, digging, digging, digging, digging, digging...chopping & scooping, chopping & scooping, chopping & scooping, chopping & scooping, chopping & scooping since last SUNDAY...and I'm STILL digging, chopping & scooping. WHO NEEDS A SOLOFLEX??? One winter storm will build my biceps!
