Monday Scrapple
There's a house on my way to the gym that had one of those electronic Christmas countdown decorations in front. Christmas was weeks ago. I still look at the front porch every morning.
I've always found the first half of January passes quickly. The second half drags.
I didn't get the chance for an up close look at last week's ice jams, but I have seen them before-- Wyoming Valley, Tunkhannock, Matamoras. Amazing things to see.
Keith Jackson's recent passing was very sad, but I really enjoyed listening to his work again. he did radio news back in the day. I can only imagine how those broadcasts sounded.
Any time I tuned to cable TV coverage of the Pennsylvania Farm Show, someone was square dancing.
Is there anything better than a hot pizza on a cold day?
Supermarkets have dozens of varieties of canned soup, and some are excellent. Yet, I choose chicken noodle just about every time.
I recently drove past Lake Scranton. It's amazing to see how many trees last year's tornado took down.
Government shutdown: There's enough blame to go around, on both sides.
Sorry skiers, two January thaws this year is fantastic.
I went two for two on NFL predictions this weekend, even though I thought Minnesota would put up more of a fight. There will be a Super Bowl pick next week. It's not difficult to guess who it will be.
Burger King has a sandwich with two 1/4 pound beef patties. Intrigued, but I probably won't.
The first Good Morning America meteorologist, John Coleman, died over the weekend. 83. He also founded The Weather Channel. One of the best presentations ever.
