Happily retired newspaper editor, practicing husband and grandfather. Unofficial but extremely accurate snow day prognosticator.
After the White House posted a fake photo of Minn. protester Nekima Levy Armstrong, Kaelan Dorr, the deputy communications director, brushed it off as a meme.
He reposted the image and said, “The memes will continue.”
That’s a guy begging to be made infamous by memes.

OK, OK, all the models are aligning. Much as I hate to make the call so early, the chances of a snow day on Monday are now 98%. (I do need a little wiggle room.) You can safely skip your homework. The only thing that can stop this one is if I gas up the snowblower. #FoxboroMA #JohnsonIndexMA

People are getting very excited about Sunday. I’m not feeling it yet. The Accuweather model says many 2 inches. The Apple model sees 8-10. The recommendation here (for now) is to stay calm and focus on the game. Do your homework. #FoxboroMA #JohnsonIndexMA
