The best neighbors

I was getting ready to go outside to shovel when I heard a snowblower going by. Cool, Superneighbor Marcos was doing our sidewalk! Only this time it was the Superneighbor Known Only as Sherry's Dad, coming from the other side, with a giant snowblower (so big it has its own headlight). He made three passes on our sidewalk, did our driveway, too. Yay for nice neighbors!

Meanwhile, out in Newton, Greg Reibman wonders:

My driveway is shovel ready. Is it eligible for stimulus funds?

Wouldn't a torn ligament in your thumb hurt a lot?

Red ponders Mike Lowell's thumb:

... My question is, how does something like this get uncovered by another team's medical staff? Did Scenic know his thumb was hurtin' but figured it to be no biggie--just a side effect of all those hours playing Halo? Did the Boston medical staff and/or Theo know Lowell was damaged goods, hence the willingness to pay most of his salary (hey, what do you want for 3 million bucks)? If there was prior knowledge of the tear, did Lowell or anyone else ever consider getting it fixed sooner rather than later so that he could be some kind of factor in 2010? Was this all part of some insidious front office plot to create the single most awkward spring training ever? ...

In case you don't want to look out the window

Steve Garfield has live video of the view outside his Jamaica Plain house. Jeff Cutler has live video of the scene in Hingham. Charles is livestreaming the snow in Swampscott. And the state's traffic-camera network is beaming out tons of snow photos.

If you take snow pictures and put them on Flickr, tag them as universalhub and I'll post here.
