Tech Target published my rant about cloud computing yesterday. It seems to have raised a few eyebrows.
BTW… I didn’t write the headline.

OK, enough already!
This is what awaited me outside as I left for work. MORE snow. As you can see the 3+ feet that had fallen before christmas has melted away to a few inches, but still remains everywhere around our home. Last night brought another half inch or so. (Oddly I left the Valentine1 on, and it kept the area above it clear of snow.)
This is 17 straight days with snow covered ground, which I’m fairly certain is the longest we’ve ever endured that condition here in my 20-some years in the Pacific Northwest. Mind you the lowlands have been snow-free for a while, but I think I’ve had enough. Can we have our rain back please?
Next week I’ll be in California though so there’s hope. (who knows, maybe I’ll bring the snow with me!)
The answer to America’s fuel economy needs: Diesel.
Worth the wait to watch it all. Remember that a UK Gallon is 1.2 US Gallons, so the VW’s 70 MPG is really more like 60 MPG US. Still, name any car available in the USA that gets 60 MPG on average?
No gasoline powered stock vehicle available in the USA could have made this trip… but even the hulking Jaguar, driven with a lead foot pulled it off…. on Diesel.
(Wet) Car Photo of the Day: Name that car!
It is wet, and red, and is crying out for somebody to name it. 😉

Some are easily ID’ed, others not so. Can you name them all?

It’s an easy one.

Wetness is a fact of life here in the Pacific Northwest. We’re used to it. Doesn’t prevent us from driving priceless cars around in the rain. Hell… it is just water… it isn’t like they will melt!
