Unplanned Winter Break

The reasons posts have been a bit scarce recently is because Memphis and the Mid-South experienced some winter weather over the past week.  While we were not reduced to dogsleds and curing caribou meat, the winter wonderland did disrupt school, work and other schedules sufficiently to prevent me from posting anything.  We will be back to more typical winter weather next week, and posts should return to a more regular schedule.
