Mizzou Links, 2-1-11 ... SNOW DAY!!

For the third time in my 14+ years in Columbia, class is canceled at Mizzou because of snow ... and for the first time ever, it was canceled a day in advance.  Hope you're enjoying Snowmageddon 2011.  At Casa Bill C., the big stuff isn't expected for another couple of hours, but it's coming down at a decent rate already.  Bill C's Dad in OKC is busy clearing a pee path for the dogs in the backyard.  I have a dog that pees on pee pads indoors.  Win.

I've shared my views of the 1922 "controversy" before -- I totally think Missouri should just start claiming the 1922 title too.  Hang a banner and everything.  It would be so deliciously petty, and the outrage over something that happened 88 years ago would be so totally enjoyable for the morbid side of my curiosity...
