Beautiful, zero Fahrenheit Minnesota! Where I will get to speak to some wonderful folk (see here for info), plus get to sponge off the kindness and hospitality of Dale Ahlquist and make his life a living hell for four wonderful days!
This is gonna be fun! But (alas for us, my reading chums) it means no blogging today as I finish up stuff here and then toddle off to the plane. I will try to parachute in as I can (on the blog, not from the plane) and will be back for sure on the 12th, once all the excitement in Minneapolis dies down.
Till then, remember the bean/nose drill instructions:
1. Grip one bean firmly between thumb and forefinger.
2. Carefully do not put it up your nose.
3. Repeat as necessary till process is complete.
That is all!
