More Blizzard Photos Online

We just put up a batch of photos of Blizzard Deux in the photo gallery here.

Yup, More Snow

We received about a foot of snow last night. It’s heavier and stickier than the snow deposited by the first blizzard, presumably because the ambient temperature was/is higher now.

There are some webcams scattered around Boulder that will give you real-time views of the snow. There are several here that provide an overview of the campus [...]

We’ll Miss You, James Brown

My partner Chris found this video on YouTube which pretty much says by itself all that needs to be said about James Brown, and why it’s sad that he’s no longer with us. I’ll just add that he’s one of those people whose influence is so huge that there’s no way to overstate it.

I Want This Man’s Job

I won’t attempt to explain why I find this so amusing, but there’s a great page here of videos of someone demonstrating his company’s blender by putting all sorts of things into it which are generally considered unfit for blender consumption. I particularly like the one which is titled as involving a crowbar, but actually [...]

More Snow!

It started snowing again at about 4:00PM. It’s too soon to tell whether or not it’s going to amount to anything, but it is coming down steadily. We’re definitely going to have a white Christmas!

More Blizzard Photos Up

We just posted more photos of the snow here. It continued to snow through the night and for awhile this morning. I said in a previous entry that Denver got the worst of it, but that turned out not to be the case. The official measurement for Boulder seems to be 34 inches, which is [...]

The Blizzard Continues

It’s 10:45PM as I write this, and it’s still snowing. I don’t know what the official measurement for Boulder is but it’s easily up to my knees in front of the house. This is certainly the heaviest snowfall I’ve seen here. I’ll put up some more pictures tomorrow.

Blizzard!

As you may have seen on the news, Colorado is getting a lot of snow today. Denver is getting the worst of it (as usual) but we’re getting quite a lot here in Boulder. I’ve put up some photos in the photo gallery here and will probably put up more tomorrow. I’ve also taken some [...]
