“There is a feeling of solidarity that swirls in the blowing snow. When I shoveled the walk this morning, I noticed my neighbor had already done part of it. I looked down the street and saw other people shoveling. As they looked up from their work, we smiled and nodded at each other. It felt like we were engaged in common work.”

“There will be new maps and compasses for those of us who leave, new points of departure that will eventually become wholly real. But at the end of my most recent visit, as I flew out of Heathrow, over the tower blocks and the discs of green parkland and the sweep of the motorway, I caught a glimpse of a bend in the Thames, so familiar and so alien, and I wondered if it had all been a trick of the light.”

“Minnesota, hats off to thee!
To thy colors true we shall ever be,
Firm and strong, united are we.
Rah, rah, rah, for It’s -11 F
Holy buckets, that’s some cold.
Who in their right mind lives here?
Minnesotans, Minnesotans.
Well, OK then.
Yay, Gophers! BURR!”*
