Weather Delays

Toronto's Union Station, seen from my office, buried in snow. 

The snow-pocalypse has arrived in southern Ontario. The "forecast" of 5cms of snow has turned into 20-30cms of snow, blowing etc. The climate softness of Toronto folks relative to the rest of Canada is a notorious national trope. It seems all it takes to ensnare everything here in the Toronto area is just a mere mention of the word "snow", much less the actual appearance of the stuff. So when it actually hits, things get pretty screwed up. 

Thus my day is rather !@#!#!@#ed up, so there will be delays on posting - my apologies in advance.

  6. Take care, mentioning snow seems to have same paralyzing effect as "second round of playoffs..."

  7. LOL - not to worry Greg, it takes even less here in Belgium - and then I think of my years in Winnipeg and Ottawa!
