Just scored two lower level tickets for $35 (total) and a $5 Spot Hero reservation to Friday night’s DePaul/Northwestern men’s hoops. There’s a nifty Mexican place a few blocks away that we frequent. Gonna be a solid date night!

Mail call - a gently used copy at a very nice price.

So we had 2-4” across our driveway. Got over to my mom’s, about two miles east of here and it was a solid 4” (and I do mean solid; heavy snow w/ 1/2” of slush as a base). Then got to my in-laws, another mile east, and they had friggin’ 6-7”.
I have easily moved into the Son-in-Law #1 position. 🤓

Heading out to shovel. Looks like we’ve gotten 2-3” of lake effect snow.

I’ve been reading Robert Jay Lifton’s The Nazi Doctors. In the chapter on Josef Mengele, Dina Babbitt (via pseudonym) is quoted several times.
Neal Adams made a biographical comic of her life; it’s posted on the blog below.
