HOMER DON'T WANNA GO OUT

• They are reporting almost 30 inches of snow across the state since yesterday.  We have more snow here than we can ever dream of shoveling.  The wind is blowing at 32 mph. I shoveled for 1/2 hour early this morning just to make it possible for Homer to get out the door to pee.....what a mess.  MB spent last night in Portland (45 minutes south of Bath) at a co-worker's house and had to walk to work at the homeless shelter today.  She said more than 200 homeless are crowded into Preble Street Resource Center at this point. Not sure she can make it home tonight either.

• Did an interview on PressTV this morning about torture and also sent a letter to our local paper about our new Sen. Angus King's comments about drones being a "very smart artillery shell....a more humane weapon."  Asked that he apologize for that comment.
