Snow is coming! One forecast shows 1-3″ is on its way here. Another predicts 2-4″.

Your Titular Blogger
Here’s something I meant to do when the SNL skit was new. (Is it “skit” in America, and “sketch” in England?) I squirmed watching this, because of the effort that goes into thinking up punny titles for blog posts.
Here’s a favorite post title, from way back in 2008:
Showering With Gifts
I bought a new shower curtain for the master bath.
Hmm… what else could I get, in a matching color scheme, to spruce up the bathroom?
Weather or Not
Regardless of the snow that’s forecast for tomorrow, I have to drive into downtown Boston for a retina exam.
If the roads are slippery, that will be a good test of my Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. Of course, they can’t do much to protect me from cars with less capable tires.
UPDATE: I had to reschedule the appointment. When checking the Epic Systems Patient Gateway, the location of the appointment had been changed.
I called the Boston office and was told the exam would be there, but the consultation with the doctor would be more than a 30-minute drive away. A single appointment that required me to be in two places at the same time. And Epic’s software didn’t catch it.
Which reminds me. There isn’t much good to say about the Trumpy attorney general of Texas, Ken Paxton, but I must admit to liking his lawsuit against Epic Systems.
BREAKING NEWS!
Bottom-Feeding TV
Being a cable TV cord-cutter with an outdoor antenna, I see subchannels come and go. The Movies! channel appeared on one station, then it disappeared before reappearing on a different station.
A recent addition in greater Boston is Movie Sphere Gold.
Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair has been showing in theaters. That’s the ideal viewing experience for Tarantino fans to see his ultra-violent homage to several film genres.
Kill Bill: Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 is showing on Movie Sphere Gold. Heavily censored, aired here with commercials in highly compressed, lowly 480i, it’s far from ideal viewing. But it’s good enough to appreciate the cinematic mayhem.
