Admittedly, I've seen snow in May. It was in Michigan, a long time ago. But this afternoon it snowed here, hard enough to obscure visibility and with the wind blowing it sideways. temperature was about 35F at the time, so it melted as soon as it touched anything solid, but it certainly was snow.
This evening we watched Kiss Me Kate the 1952 film based on Cole Porter's Broadway musical. I like Cole Porter best of all the musical composers. His stories are funny and always multilayered, with a self-conscious sense of the absurd. Particularly good in this one is the song and dance number by the two mobsters, "Brush up your Shakespeare." (Keenan Wynne and James Whitmore)
I almost forgot it was Saturday, when I have to wind clocks. That's what happens when you don't have work to make you keep track of the days of the week. Could have done many useful things today, but instead I read books and played with computers. Shame on me.
