Snow II








Pros and cons of SNOW!!

Pros:
  • Can’t cross street just anywhere.
  • Makes everything clean.  Buries some problems.
  • Good for sledding, skiing, snowboarding.
  • Barrier from cars when your walking/running on sidewalk

Cons:
  • Can’t cross street just anywhere.
  • Can get slick.
  • Too much is bad for roofs, for streets.
  • Gotta shovel out your driveway and walkway.
  •  Eventually it melts- tough on running and driving!
  • Eventually the melted snow re-freezes- then it's slick as ...well no metaphor is adequate.
So, like everything else, snow has good and bad aspects.  But snow comes on G^d's terms, not ours.  We can enjoy it or complain, but here it comes, like life.

  1. We watched a movie Wednesday night called "Kitchen Stories" about a large ethnographic study Sweden did on some Finns kitchen habits after WWII. Surprisingly, it was a funny comedy.

    We thought of you and Brenda throughout. It had snow, snow, snow, and more snow. The movie had several themes: the friendliness or lack thereof of cold people, tensions in positivist approaches to social research, and friendship. It was your kind of movie.
