Sunday

Super damp and rainy out. The rain is mixing in with the snow causing some of the side streets to get all mushy, eek. Per Pep's note, he has moved his blog about gadgets on the cheap to Wordpress, his new URL is http://tecnopobre.wordpress.com/.

Back from church this morning. Have quite a few errands to run, will be heading out soon.

Monday and Tuesday will be out of town, going to do 09 planning, going to Atlantic City. Will be back Tue night.

PatataBrava

This site is a popular one with college kids in Spain where they post about their teachers and create a archives of "great sentences". Quite a lot of pressure . Anyway, of course Pep has had quite a few posted in there by his students, he is a very funny professor:

"Sona un móvil a classe:
Pep: Ah, ¿qué es, una canción?
Alumno: Sí, si quieres luego a la salida te la paso.
Pep: Es igual, es igual... Es jodido esto de las canciones, porque normalmente lo que te gusta está en el medio y claro, cuando te las pones en el móvil pues solo suena el principio... la musiquita esa, sabeís? Las guitarras y todo eso... Yo en el mio cojí un editor de audio y la recorté, y ahora suena lo que me gusta!
Si os fijaís, es parecido a lo que pasa cuando juegas al Guitar Hero: Estás allí, con la guitarra, a punto de empezar, y ¡venga con el solo de batería que no acaba! y tu allí esperando para empezar... ¿si o no?"

Fri

First snow storm of the season in the city. Woke up to heavy snowing. The streets were OK though, no problem getting to union square and jumping on the subway. Most vendors had setup show on the xmas market as usual. A little slushy and wet on the way back home in the evening, but fine. Snow has mostly melted in most busy streets.
