As editor of the company newsletter, I couldn’t resist reporting the change with the headline “We’re movin’ on up.” I was confident that People of a Certain Age (or People with a Reliable Source of Reruns) would “get” the playful reference. That’s my roundabout way of saying that January 18 marks the 50th anniversary of the premiere of the legendary Norma...
Well it is a beautiful snowy morning here in our little valley, it looks like a Winter wonderland. I do not know how many inches of snow we got but everything is covered.

I grabbed it, put it into my pocket, then went downstairs. When I got to the car, I still did...
