All right, gang, it’s Monday, which means I need the full weekend reports.
Floridians, please update column G — Alligator Fatalities — in the spreadsheet.
Eastern/Midwestern US and Canada, please record the record low temperatures and snowfall amounts in a dry, safe place.
Seattle area peeps, are we sober yet?
UK/Europe, what’s happening over there?
If I missed anyone, I missed them.
…based on the BBC lunchtime digest on the news…while business secretary mid-financial crisis…peter “well, I already said I regret how bad all this looks but I’m just a smol bean” mandelson was bunging confidential cabinet communications to his boy jeffery…who was so near the top of his mind sometimes that took less than 5 secs from it hitting pete’s inbox…oh, & he told his chum to tell their chums at JPMorgan to maybe “mildly threaten” the sitting chancellor in order to head off any limits on bonuses to bankers that need bailouts to cover those
…so that’s fun…while they fill in the locals on the “cultural differences” being experienced stateside?
…so probably another banner week for the places that think of themselves as having won the war(s) to end all wars?
Last alligator fatality was Jan. 22. 61-year-old Michigan woman. Pretty bad one, really. They never recovered one arm. None since then. It’s been in the 30s at night (and into the 20s a couple of nights) so alligators are largely dormant waiting for the return of warm weather. And more tourists.
This concludes your alligator update.
CC-ing Brenda in HR, just to ensure we’re compliant.
Ask her to draft a memo reminding people that there are carnivorous dinosaurs lurking beneath the surface of every body of water in Florida, including mudpuddles.
No snow. “Regular” Cold temps in Ontario.
Cold as shit in upstate NY, but we didn’t get any extra snow over the weekend.
lots of black ice here…but other than that..news wise..everythings quiet enough locally that this genius made the front page of the national news by getting stuck
That’s a novel way to avoid climbing a flight of stairs.
yup…unfortunatly for him…the turn up top is decidedly not jeep sized….and thats when he discovered his jeep has too much ass to just back down again
soo he had to do the wait of shame…like a responsible adult… im kidding…dude ran away and pretended to not be home when the cops turned up…
lots of good decisions being made there… gonna be a very expensive monday for him
We had no more snow over the weekend but we did get stupid low temps of -1 on Saturday.
It was 50 degrees F here on Sunday. I have no idea what the fuck is even going on. Am I gonna have to mow my lawn in February? My sincere condolences to everyone suffering cold temps.
