Just overheard at the bar
"Of all the assholes we worked with at that joint, Kelly was definitely the best asshole."
Also, they seem to think calling someone "brah" is some kind of smack at hippies. I think they do not know the word hipster.
Also - the Chilean peninsula, really?
Someone built an IGLOO (or a cave, really) about 3 doors down.
Still the best Christmas present ever (after the 100 subway tokens my Dad gave me the first year I lived in NYC).
Cash, I think some of it goes into the rivers, iirc. Or what Tom said!

Ben builds an igloo every year! Just big enough for him to sit in, but still. Very cool.
I had no idea a snow melting machine existed. Neato.
Note to self: when cooking something that is supposed to solidify as it cools, wash out the pan while it's still warm.
I just tried a little bit of the chickpea tofu. It tastes kind of eggy, which I was not expecting.

Baltimore got a special environmental dispensation to dump snow in the harbor.
I feel like it just doesn't stay cold that long in NYC, usually, as well. Most of the time I lived there, it was slush, not snow, we were actually dealing with.
To be fair, a lot of NYC's snow also just winds up in big piles on the sidewalk corners. Anything that falls on a street in Manhattan melts pretty quickly because of the subways running underneath 24/7 (keeping things warm), but sidewalk slush can stick around for a while.
Lisa and Bob: I am so sorry to hear this news. How terrifying. You guys have tons of peeps rooting for you.
