**Pumped Storage** It's hilarious, but we are awash in electricity at night. That's from the nuclear plants. If anybody figured out a good storage system (think freezing!) then no need for solar, etc.

**However, the continental ice is building** There's no physics here. A healthy glacier spouts out ice. The volume decreases during a surge, and increases during a 'pause'. However, the influencers don't do physics, which is fine. Looking at the temperature chart, Antarctica is flat as a pancake.

**Forced political innovation** It's never right. With the physics view, rather than groupthink, we should be pushing methanol fuel cells with super-capacitors. That plays into Canada's strength. Lithium batteries are a China thing. However, we must go for the photo ops. :)

**Arctic air building up** Nothing much in NA right now, but we are looking for the headpond to build up. This would be a large amount of very cold, clear air, forming a cold lock, like a glacier. A chart of potential energy would show a build-up, then a release all over us. During the last warm cycle, the plumes would have ensured this didn't happen. Another Texas Popsicle within a week, or a UK chill.

Grandson eating. Those mesh bags are the greatest thing ever! Put cooked blueberries in it and it takes care of itself.

**He breaks a new record!** Yeah! Distribute the wealth!

**Depression hits UK economy** I'm not making fun of the UK any more. I mainly did it because they were founders of the Clange depressive movement. They need to:
-- do physics, there is nothing you can with influencer fantasy
--make cannabis legal -- get away from alcohol which destroys brain serotonin
-- put Paxil in mac&cheese

Nothing exciting. We have a weak cold clipper from the NW hitting the residual warm air. Lots of rain. I thought yesterday we were getting another Texas Crunch, but, no. Instead, another penetration by a Pacific Plume.

Every Spring, the log deadheads, in the cottage lake, rise to greet the Sun.

Such a beautiful day in Toronto, took the grandson out for a walk. You can see the mist clouds coming in.

**New cold blob repels ocean wind** This is the same as last time. Quite amazing.

**Check the pipes** My hose nozzle in the garage was pouring when I went to check the microgreens. It was plastic and I was using it to water the greens. Garbage now.

**A Quandry** Is it that people have stopped 'working' from home, or the death of bitcoin? Poll at 11.

**MIMIC is fixed!** We have two cold blobs coming to hit NA and Europe. First - rain on frozen ground, and then a flash freeze.

**Mouse ultrasound on drones now** This will be the latest thing, next to those useless mosquito suckers. Perhaps they will claim they are good for that, as well.

**MIMIC continues to be attacked by left-wingers** Or probably not, it's just that they don't respond to my constant hectoring. Maybe someone else can give it a try. Anyway, two very strong plumes are warming us and Europe. the plumes are low, so expect cold soon. In the meantime, we get lots of rain on frozen ground.

**Christmas gift pickles** This was a pickle kit that uses the brine method, which is the same as sauerkraut. In the background is the mandolin, nicknamed **Vlad the Impaler**. It has caused much blood. Now, the rule is to not go within 3 ft of it without the cut-proof gloves. These are a cheap ammie thing, with stainless steel threads. Much to the dismay of my cut fingertip, the 'safety' holder is useless.

I'm just collecting 'End of La Nina' stories, with no thought on it whatsoever. The biggest bet of the year will be on this.
