Snow Day!
Boy does that bring back memories!
But now instead of being a student who can enjoy the day off, I am the principle who must weigh the risks of travel verses the course schedule. The risks won out today.
Here in the 'burbs of Vancouver we got about 45 centimeters of snow, the first 25 wet heavy, barely freezing snow. The remainder is dry and blowing. Makes for a interesting drive anywhere. Most everything was shut down today. All public schools are closed as are the colleges. So instead of teaching, we are spending the day in front of our Christmas tree, sippin' hot coffee and believe it or not grading papers. Boo!
Bless you where ever you are.

Not sure if this is good or bad, but today in Austin it's 75 and sunny...
Although, I got to tell ya, I wish I could look outside and see some white stuff.
I'm very sure whether this is good or bad: it's -25*C today in Calgary... AGAIN... and I wish I could look outside and NOT see white stuff ;o)
You have your Christmas tree up already?! Admirable, I must say...
Hey, can I post your blog link on the CHEConthis.blogspot.com site?
It sounds to me like you made an excellent decision, oh wise one. I feel compelled to make a correction for the record which is that you are the 'principal' vis a vis the 'principle'. It's true; as Casey Stengel would say, "You can look it up."
