“Our God given unalienable rights are given to us all as individuals. They tell us what me may do for ourselves, and they are the embodiment of liberty.
The so-called rights that government gives to some of us are parcelled out to select groups as classes. They tell us what one class of people may require another to do for them, and they are the very essence of slavery.”— Perri Nelson, February 9, 2010

In a not unexpected turn of events, it snowed today. Naturally, the camera dragged me out into the street to take pictures. Here's what the view up and down my street looked like while it was snowing…
Of course, we've got our Christmas decorations out. Here they are…
It thought it was a bit funny… The snow globe was covered in snow.
Update:
For a while the snow went away, but this evening it came back with a vengeance. The snowman shorted out and died.
Oh well. We've had it for four years and it's seen a lot. We'll replace it after the holidays.
I took some video of the snowfall too.

That's right, "2006 Christmas Challenge". I know it's 2007, but my sister-in-law sent this to me in email. I managed to get all but number 5…
Following is the 2006 edition of Christmas Challenge. See how many song titles you can get.
- Oh, member of the round table with missing areas
- Boulder of the tinkling metal spheres
- Vehicular homicide was committed on Dad's mom by a precipitous darling
- Wanted in December: forward incisors
- The apartment of two psychiatrists
- The lad is diminutive percussionist
- Sir Lancelot with laryngitis
- Decorate the entryways
- Cup-shaped instruments fashioned of whitish metallic elements
- Oh small Israel urban center
- Far off in a hay bin
- We are Kong, Lear, and Nat Cole
- Duodecimal enumeration of the passage of the yuletide season
- Leave and broadcast from an elevation
- Our fervent hope is that you thoroughly enjoy your yuletide season
- Listen, the winged heavenly messengers are proclaiming tunefully
- As the guardians of the woolly animals protected their charges in the dark hours
- I beheld a trio of nautical vessels moving in this direction
- Jubilation to the entire terrestrial globe
- Do you perceive the same vibrations which stimulate my auditory sense
- A joyful song of reverence relative to hollow metallic vessels which vibrate and bring forth a ringing sound when struck
- Parent was observed osculating a red-coated un-shaven teamster
- May the Deity bestow an absence of fatigue to mild male humans
- Rose-colored uncouth dolf is aware of the nature precipitation, darling
How many can you get?
