I see this one guy who's always on a bicyle riding all over town at any time of day or night and he has the most magnificent mullet on Gods green earth. I really need to get a photo. Perfectly angled flat-top with the back side going ¾ of the way down his back.
I've seen this guy (theoretically) all my life and have worked landscaping with him and bonded with him as the only other gringo, even though I leaned towards the Guatamalans. Through an unfortunate string of events he has been relegated to the bike, yet has taken to it quite naturally. I generally associate him with quieted down river towns along the Mississippi like-say Hannibal and have even seen him all over the inner city of this place.
Simply I don't know how the burgs and low-end taverns will fare when this era passes. It's like he is begging for Story Corps to come by.
....but living so close to Iowa (5 minutes) I'm so fucking glad this caucus is over. GOP boners in town every day for weeks on end, relentless TV attack ads all day long...."Rick Santorum paid illegal immigrants to water-proof his basement!"...."Mitt Romney rapes puppies!"
It's New Hampshires turn....
FYI – the mail carrier will be about 15 minutes late, so the window for mail pickup will open at approximately 10:45 a.m.

57° F and sunny today.....the grass is green.....both local rivers are 100% ice free.......the 5th of January.....in NW Illinois.......the end is near.
It feels like mid March here. It has felt like mid-March since early December. It's still below freezing all the time, but other day it was normal for this time of year and it felt extremely cold by comparison. Our port is still operating.
The grass in front of the SaskPower building here was green yesterday. Not just spring green either. WTF?
To put this in perspective. The normal lows are -23C here. It was -1C this morning when I got up. The normal high is -12C. It was 5C yesterday. I think I can count on one hand the number of mornings it was below -12C in the morning since the beginning of December.
If Environment Canada is right, mid January to mid March are going to be ugly cold because they predicted la nina would give us a colder than normal winter.

Damn, they already closed what may have been the thread of the year in skybar. I know it's early, but seriously standing versus sitting? They shut it down after only two votes. Now we'll never know.

^ no shit (pun intended)! Seriously, if you can't figure out how to sit-and-wipe then chewing gum and walking at the same time is probably a daily struggle too, among other things.
