Is thus far a rather uninspiring thing. Which I'm all for, what with the having driven to and from Office of Doom today. Usually I telecommute on Tuesdays, but somebody scheduled a meeting I needed to attend today, so instead I'll be safe at home tomorrow. When we will either have a heaping helping of the white stuff (though not nearly as much as the east coast got the other day -- right now they're calling for 8-12 inches) or the... what, second or third Chicken Little rerun of the winter?

Not that I particularly want to be up to our eyeballs, mind you. It's just weird to keep seeing media freakouts and municipal prep amount to a fizzle.

Meanwhile, I wish we could send some of Chicago's ironclad management mechanisms out to the reservations in South Dakota, which have been snowbound and frozen for nearly two weeks while Indian Affairs does sod-all about it. Link goes to Daily Kos, which has mobilized a remarkable direct assistance effort. (h/t to filkertom)
