We’re Number 1!

In snowfall.   And I hear the Syracuse basketball team is hoping to work its way to Number 1 also.  

We started slow in snow this year, but have caught up to average snowfall, about 100 inches.   Not as much as last year (180 inches!), but it is enough to put Syracuse back in its normal spot of snowiest cities:

This shows how much we use the car:

Helen has been busy working with her most favorite co-worker, Dr Beach, on a chapter for a medical reference book (Niedermeier for you Neurologist out there).  This is them collaborating on some graphics using my most awesomeness large screen computer.

I was due for my 3 year computer upgrade, so I got a screaming 4 core, 8 gig memory XPS SX8100 Dell from Best Buy.  It is black, like these leather biker jeans that Helen made me try on.  I am struggling to lift up my right leg:

It didn’t work.  I think bikers ride, but don’t walk.

These last 3 images are collages that were made with this nifty new feature in the free Picasa 3 photo program.   You identify a few faces in some of your photos, then it crawls thru the rest and auto-identifies a bunch more.  Then you can say make a collage and presto!  A billion Nick, Zack, and Bruces!

If anyone is interested, I can tagged most of my friends and relatives, so can make collages of pretty much anyone. 

In migration news, Helen and I had semi-decided to move to Casper Wyoming this fall, but in late breaking news this week, we have decided to go back and take a 2nd trip to Salt Lake City the first week in June.  So no decisions for a few more months.
