Welcome back.
Don't know the smell of mown grass yet, still winter in the North East. Dipped to a high of 3F the other day, more snow forecasted. The good news is warmer crappy weather is on the way.

Welcome back Woof - and no we are still digging out - with more expected Weds

But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express over the winter and sucked down mega Guinness
over in Blarney last week.

New mown grass here - is expected sometime in May

Hey Woof, have you stumbled across the Night Vale News in your internet travels?

My eldest daughter sent me a link a wee while back, but I have only recently started to follow it.

If you can imagine "The News from Lake Woebegone" written by Stephen King, you're probably not too far off the track.

A little strange, and a bit challenging; but hey what isn't on the interweb?

Hey Tony. Still searching for a Night Vale News link. In the meantime, here's a vid from one of my favorite Saturday radio programs. Seb may get a kick out of it, even though he a six-legged bug expert.


ok. Had a chance at Night Vale. Sort of a spin on the old Art Bell radio show. Conspiracy Theories broadcast from a secret transmitter located in the high desert of the U.S.A. Night Vale as was described is a Lake Woebegon meets Steven King, but the guy is just reading and not a story teller like Garrison Keillor.

Here's Prairie Home Companion clip for those of you think winter was cold. It was nowheres near as cold as the winter of '51
