SENATOR MARY LANDRIEU (D-LA) sold her vote for $300M. How much did Sen. Nelson (D-NE) sell his vote for?

God help us all - Congress won't.
ONLY FIVE MINUTES before these photos were taken, you could see the asphalt.



About 7 inches of snow have been cleared from the top of the driveway. The lawn tractor's snow blade can handle only about 10 inches,so it looks like tomorrow's going to be some hard physical labor.



I was hoping for a break at about 8 inches of snow ....

[Update] The back porch ruler now reads almost 11 inches.

[Update; 1:30 pm] The ruler is now buried; time to switch to a yardstick.

[Update; 6:00 pm] The yardstick now reads 16 inches; it's still snowing.
A NOTE TO JOURNALISTS: please shut up!

I know it's snowing outside; it does that in the winter. I also know how to deal with it, and I can do without your silly advice and fatuous "look at me braving the danger to show you what you can see looking out the window" commentary.
A SNOWY VIEW from our window:



Almost 7 inches at 8:30 am; another 10-12 inches expected before it's over tomorrow morning.



It's going to be a long day.
