Not Much Yet

More than 12 hours into this big snow event thing, and we’re lucky if we’ve had an inch of snow. Inch and a half at most.

Never fear, the weather people are now using their new euro-spec CFS prediction algorithm, which might be better. Or not. So whatever, but please stand by.

Hey Mozilla Firefox Browser developer people! Know what I want as a new feature? I want “undo” to apply to tabs and windows as well. Like, if I’m working on a really great blog post, and I accidentally close the tab, I want to be able to click “undo” and get it right back, not just the tab but all the content as well. Or if I have to kill a tab real fast because of privacy, assuming I haven’t done anything else, later on I can hit undo and get the tab back and the video I was watching. You know? Kinda like the old Boss Button, only better.

I had a wicked great post almost fully built, and then WHAM!!, lost it. This is all that’s left:

“This will most likely be one of the largest blizzards in the history of New York City,” said New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, who said the city had 250,000 tons of salt on hand and would have 40 percent more ambulances than usual ready to roll. He said all non-emergency vehicles would be banned from city streets from 11 p.m. until further notice.

“It is imperative that you have a plan in place to get home safely this evening before the heavy snow begins and remain there for the duration of the storm.”

- Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy

Authorities banned travel on all streets and highways in New York City and Long Island and warned that violators could be fined $300. Even food deliveries were off-limits on the streets of takeout-friendly Manhattan. The governors of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island also slapped restrictions on nonessential travel.

Right. So now the blizzard part is going to happen later than they thought. Maybe even a full day later. So I should just count my blessings so far, and ration the rum and biscuits for the next day or so.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
