Two things about the snow here this morning.

A) There are no cat tracks in the snow around my house. Not even in places sheltered from the wind.

B) The wind is blowing hard, and there are much harder gusts.

The word "blizzard" originally meant "a big fight." During a huge Winter storm in the late Nineteenth Century one front page story referred to it as a "Blizzard of a Storm" which was paralyzing much of the US.

Ever hear Louis Armstrong perform "A Kiss to Build a Dream On"? Now, imagine Jimmy Durante singing and playing the piano (folks who knew Durante said his greatest talent was the piano) with him.

As far as I know, Durante never recorded that song. Too bad. If he had, modern remastering could produce just such a performance.
