The snow is melting. I've got maybe half of it off my driveway.
Due to be up into the 60s today so there'll be less tomorrow.
Duane Hoberg, the ODGuru, is in KC.
Would you believe that, having lived over 30 years here (almost half
my life), I have NEVER been to Kansas City? Been to Manhattan, Osawattomie,
and a few other places in that direction though.
I always spell «Año» with the eñe, alt-164. Most of the eSpanish
especial characters are in the 160s except for é, alt-130.
(I guess French takes precedence. Nobody asked me.)
I think the railroads brought a lot of good Mexican cooks to Kansas
around the turn of the century, when they employed their husbands.
I guess they are KanMex as opposed to TexMex.
I've got a lot of old junk that could be masqueraded as rare, classic
and exotic Volvo parts, so if you need something odd, let me know.
