Winter sucks!

Ok, maybe winter doesn't exactly suck but it sure cuts down my outdoor time. I haven't been out for a walk or bike ride in a while now. It rained a couple of days and that was a nice change from the dry month of January. When I was keeping precipitation records out where I used to work at Laufman, I graphed the 30 year average and the 45 year average. Clearly January was the wettest month, historically. Every few years we get one of these kinds of winters though, so you can't say it's global warming that's causing it.

I have no pictures to post today. Well, I guess I could post a picture of one of the computer components I'll be buying soon. My old computer has been a work horse but it's old in computer years so with the new Vista operating system already released it's time for me to build a new one. The trick is to find the sweet spot relative to price and state of the art. I already have made some decisions on components so I guess I should start ordering the stuff and get on with it.. especially before the weather starts getting nice and I start getting out on a regular basis. OK, winter does suck but ya still gotta love it!
