Monday Stuff on the Way to Other Stuff: Brrrrrr...

     Boy, it's been cold around here. And everywhere else, pretty much. Just an inch or so at our house, and a bit more nearby at Alamosa. 

     More of the usual this week...reports and repairs. The Christmas stuff is cleared away; if I behave myself, a friend and I will have a thrift shopping day on Friday. Hopefully we'll get more snow, too -- we really need it. 




Meanwhile:

A failed Hail Mary pass (or a 'whew!' win, depending on your team) at the Fiesta Bowl -- that last call sure looks like pass interference to me, too.

Denver's stock show parade this year -- very cool!

A 1577 palace fire in Venice that still affects the art world today.

The backstory on "Whistler's Mother."  See if you can read Mr. Bean's analysis of the painting -- and not laugh!


Prince Philip -- frugal?!?  How dare he! (I've heard the same thing said of Queen Elizabeth.)

Can you REALLY trust a snowman??  A classic from yours truly. 

Three babies, all abandoned years apart from each other -- turn out to be siblingsAuthorities are still looking for the mother. 

And... a very funny use for rubber chickens.



Have a good week. Stay warm.
