Full Moonings By Any Other Name;

Ruined Reels Need Insurance Hand

By JAY MANN | Feb 28, 2013

This week we’re lookin’ up at something called a Full Hunger Moon – I point out, while heading into the Chinese buffet. Last month, we witnessed an impressive Full Wolf Moon.

Those cool names arrive via Native Americans, including…

It might just be me and my wobbliness over the impacts from this fall and winter but fair weatheredness sure doesn’t seem to hang around very long of late. There is definitely the gun shyness…

Friday, February 22, 2013: I’m on one of those tazmo runs – tons to do and no time to do same. It all stems from the big fix. I apologize for laps in entries here but anyone suffering from Post Sandy Stress Syndrome can relate. And as I've noted, I’m well ahead of the curve when it comes to getting my life back on path. Now if I could only find some familiar landmarks ...

Monday, February 18, 2013: Damn, that was one cold-ass night we just had. Sure, there had been some lower temps this winter but add in the gale wind (all frickin’ night long) and I guarantee more pipes froze last night than during all previous frigid nights.

Saturday, February 09, 2013: That rapid fire burst of snow last night was a tad bothersome, registering about three inches…

Friday, Feb. 8, 2013: We have already dodged a .45-caliber snow bullet. By midday alone, we would have had over 20 inches of snow had the rain been white. That's based on well over an 1.5 inches of rain in my gauge. And the storm is just winding up off the coast.

Hey, I know how many snow freaks are out there but the good thing for those snow eagles is they'll…
