One of the good things (maybe the only good thing?) about a big snow storm is that you get to see your neighbors and sometimes meet a new one. The tipoff was the green and orange Charles River Rats jacket, so I knew the guy shoveling out his car two away from ours, was a rugby player on the team Peter used to play for back in the 80's. And what could be better. He told me they're planning a 30th reunion for May 10 and hoping to locate as many ex-players as possible. Thanks to the storm, we'll be there.

The early morning street scene here shows today's agenda once people start waking up. Unfortunately we're not even one of these. We'll be traveling several blocks with shovel to uncover our car. Hopefully we'll be able to remember where we parked it before the storm hit.

As the original Google cook, I owe my personal 15-minutes of fame to the joint technologies of searching with Google and blogging about it with Blogger. Of course it was my daughter, Meg, who got me started with it all, back when she was working on the development of Blogger. So as a proud mom, what could be better than celebrating the confluence of these two favorites in the announcement of Blogger's purchase by Google. I'm cracking open a bottle of champagne and toasting the vision and dedication of the team that created Blogger and helped to launch the weblog phenomena.
