ickaimpHappy Chinese New Year! It's the Year of the Golden Rabbit!!!
When looking up what to say for the New Year, I ran across "歲歲平安 Suì suì ping ān", to say for good luck if something breaks.
.... We're breaking temperature records. Suì suì ping ān.
There's something sincerely topsy when Tucson is colder than Ohio. This morning, with wind chill, we were at 1-3 Fahrenheit / -16-17 Celsius. It was so cold that the main pumps that deliver water to the city froze, cutting off water to parts of the city. Pipes are frozen and bursting. It's... well. Like that Chinese curse. Interesting.
Like a News Conference at a Tucson firehouse about the Extreme Cold weather got delayed when they had to evacuate the building due to bursting water pipes. *giggles*
And there's a gas shortage as well, for heating. They're cutting off gas to Rita Ranch, Sierra Vista and some of the eastern parts of Tucson.
At least it's a dry cold-? XD This New Year is out like a Tiger, in like a Rabbit. ^__^
For you Atenveldt Fiber Geeks, can't you just see a giant smiley face in the middle of this?
