Mornin' all!

Positively frigid here this morning. The actual temperature is 2! And the weather man is saying more of the same for the next 7 - 10 days! But I missed all that snow yesterday that was dumped on my neighbors just a few miles away. Some areas got nearly two feet!

Moving right along...

Today's Question(s):
If you wake up half an hour to an hour before you intended to, do you:
get up and start your day early?
stay in bed and try to go back to sleep?
try to go back to sleep, and get up if unsuccessful?
other?


Bonus Question(s):
What is the very first song you ever remember hearing on the radio? Post a video of it if you like.



Just for Fun:
When was the last time you:
went to the movies?
ate something that was factory-sealed?
took the day off to just rest and relax?
tried something new?

Today in History:
Arts/Entertainment: 1968 "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" premieres on NBC
Birthday: 1940 John Hurt, English actor
Science/Technology: 2013 Scientist in China discover an ancient human fossil in a cave near Beijing; the 40,000 year-old leg bone shows it was related to the ancestors of present-day Asians and Native Americans
Sports: 1998 World League of American Football becomes NFL East

Today’s Word:
p e r s e (it won't let me enter this word without some kind of modification! )
Pronunciation: (puhrs)
Meaning: adjective: Of a grayish blue or purple color.
Etymology: From persus (dark blue), from Latin Persicus (Persian), from Persia, former name of Iran. Why this color is associated with Persia is not entirely clear.
Earliest documented use: 1387
