While folks who took deductions for their mortgage interest were preparing a self-styled 'tea party' over mortgage assistance at the Capitol, Georgia Power was pulling off a swindle for the ages. Remember, it isn't a Ponzi scheme if it has PSC 'oversight' (Thank you, Karen Handel; now do us a favor and go jump in the river). So, here's my $120 middle finger to Georgia Power. I plan on trying out one or more of these LED bulbs, within the next month. |

How bad is the economy? According to AJC, Grocery stores reported no panic buying Sunday afternoon. Let's check that: Atlanta metro got a half-foot of snow, on a weekend, and there wasn't a run on milk and bread. This will be the first such snowstorm in decades that wasn't accompanied by pictures of empty shelves and coolers. |

| And so, while wandering around on a pub crawl last night, I purchased fanfic from a busker/con-man. This brings my collection of "addle-brained writings" to two volumes. |

| To cap off the first weekend-long rain we've had in a long, long time, we got 5+ inches of wet, sloppy snow today. Most of it melted on contact, but the yards and roofs are covered in frozen snow right now. That will melt off tomorrow and Tuesday, with that runoff acting as "virtual rain" for the next two days. Effectively, that will make a 5-day wet streak, which will put a good dent in the drought. |
