We’re not sure why the “big” news stories so often occur on Wednesday afternoons or Thursday mornings. Perhaps it’s some ancient curse on newspaper reporters. Whatever the case, it’s almost as interesting to read the actual facts as it is to compare all the zany variations that show up on Facebook.
The moisture last weekend was welcome, but we’re apparently going to need more. It would be nice if it could appear in the form of rain instead of snow, so we could at least pretend to play at having springtime.
Happy belated birthday to Steve Harman, April 13.
