Hi. I am CNN and I am here to help you understand. After the break.Yoko Ono.

(Yoko emotes -- from here -- about how bad things are over there. {Thank you. We didn't know.} She concludes the current earthquake- tsunami - nuclear disaster is "the same as World War Two.")
Yoko, your trip to India seeking enlightenment didn't work. You might want to return and hustle up a better guru. Maybe one who has at least a rudimentary grasp of the events of 1944/45.

Not much, folks.
It may come to pass that I'll consider it a mistake to have left the 1970s Winchester M70 (in the magnificent .30-06) on the table, its $400 price tag intact. The condition was okay, not counting a stock ding here and there, but (a) I didn't value the Bushnell 3x9 as highly as the seller did, and he wouldn't split the package and (b) I spent the entire day in one of those overly frugal moods which are harmful to the spirit of modern loopholing.
Only a handful of cheap Ireland-made pocket knives and three and one-half bricks of .22s came home.
As to general pricing, the only things that caught my eye were the EBRs.They seem to be getting noticeably cheaper.

The Limits of Technology
Departing cold fronts often produce a little snow in these lattitudes, and the National Weather Service guys thought they saw some on their electric radar sets. Only problem was that folks on the ground kept saying, "Snow? Don't know nothin' 'bout no snow here. Ain't none I see."
Upon further reflection, the NWS publishes:
"(There are) SOME MORE INTERESTING RETURNS CLOSER TO SIOUX FALLS...AND WHEN COMPARING TO PILOT REPORTS...ARE LIKELY SEEING LARGE FLOCKS OF GEESE."

A young goose fancy...
A vee of Canadas just passed over on a northwest heading. Time to revisit the Saskatchewan marshes and make more geese.
If the weather guessers have it right, we're on the verge of hemi-global warming as the big freeze of 2010/11 fades into wretched memory. Next week: the 40s and 50s, and even a night or two of above-freezing lows.
Ahhhhhh.
