. . . Observations
Item: Mrs. B had her second (and final) cataract surgery on Friday. It was very successful.
Observation: It's amazing how someone can stick a knife in your eyeball, scoop out the lens, insert a plastic implant, and allow virtually perfect vision again.
Item: I do not own a snow shovel, as they are not needed in southern Virginia, and besides, I own a front-wheel drive SUV that does well in the snow.
Observation: We had at least 6" of snow yesterday, followed by freezing sleet. The Escape is in the shop. So much for logic.
Late Breaking News: THE CITY OF VIRGINIA BEACH DOES NOT CLEAR RESIDENTIAL STREETS.
Item: Barry O said that he would "rather be a good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president."
Observation: He's well on the way to the latter, and, with any luck, will be eminently successful at the former.
(Soto voce: Sorry, but comments on the most ineffective president since Jimmy C. are occasionally necessary, lest my head explode)
Item: Lisa, Ian and Brittany are coming to visit in 11 days.
Observation: I have laid in all of the supplies necessary for the visit.

Having a "Snow Day" in Southern Virgina - weird.
I approve of your supplies and look forward to us creating new photographic evidence of our (successful this time) attempts at the Black and Tans.
Luckily, us Nebraskans and our pilots do not easily get put off by a teensy 6 inches of snow so we'll definitely be there. ;-)
NB: For the purposes of this comment we're going to pretend you always came from Southern Virginia and have never had the fun of twister country first hand. Shhh.
p.s. Yes, I did spell Virginia wrong first time. Ahem. In my defence the Yorkshire puddings are in the oven and I'm distracted...
Guinness glasses and tea? Weird.
They are used at different quaffing ceremonies, clearly, until the too many of the former are emptied and everyone gets horribly confused and puts tea in the Guinness.
The photo was simply a visual shopping list of the entirety of the items necessary to properly entertain a recent Brit immigrant.
;o)
