So, will it be HIT? or MISS?
Well, the weather wizards on TV are in ultra-panic mode with never-ending news and alerts of a Brobdingnagian winter storm wending our way tomorrow morning.
Fearing the worst, I got my old winter boots out of the closet and made a trip to my local stupidmarket for a gallon of milk, a loaf of bread, 3 cans of chicken noodle soup, a six-pack of Charmin and a bag of Road Runner Ice Melter. I also would have thrown in a couple of packages of Twinkies, but they don’t make them anymore. So I added a package of Fig Newtons instead. And I also threw in a spare box of Flavor Snacks for Mlle. Renee. So come what may, Renee and I are totally prepared. I also made sure the snow shovel was locked in the garage, so I won’t be tempted to shovel the walks.
Latest dire/ominous reports have the super storm dozing in Texas and Oklahoma.
5:17 PM UPDATE – 3 to 5 inches of snow in Saint Louis by 6 PM Thursday. Guess they’re really taking this one serious. The West Walnut Manor street department pretreated the local streets this afternoon. Those white stripes are a mixture of ice melters and beet juice.
That’s my life,
And welcome to it!

... a somewhat unknown or perhaps imaginary actor, writer, director, producer, photographer, friend, brother, uncle and all round good fellow that you really should get to know because he lives with that most glamorous fourpaw Mademoiselle Renee. (Mlle. Renee for short)
Good luck! It’s coming our way after visiting you.
Kansas is getting pretty heavy snow right now. And they just increased the amounts of snow expected locally.
It looks as if Renee is playing the role of Wile E. Coyote in this photo.
I think she was wondering if there was something to eat inside the bag and also wether she could open it up.
