PS: anyone here know where to get a good walking-out kilt (I need a MacKenzie)? Don't need and can't afford a dress kilt, but methinks it's time to assert m'self; ammunition boots, a kilt and a khaki beret kind of settles my headspace. It's been too damned long, and spring's a'comin'...

Reference piss-up: Lotsa luck, buddy...we've had a severe weather warning/watch for the last 12 hours and extending to the next 48 hours.
Dunno what it's like in Toronto's Lotus Land, but we've just been hammered with a NNW howling wind which dropped over 40 cm of snow in a few hours. Forecast is for another 10-15 cm tomorrow (Sunday).
If Betty really wants/has to go to church tomorrow, I'll have to shake a leg at about o' dark thirty and snow blow the driveway.
Ferchrissakes, I thought I was retired and didn't have to react to Nature's foibles.
Speaking of Nature...if I ever get my hands on that slimy little bastard rodent aka Wiarton Willie, I'll throttle the bugger.
