Maybe it's something that doesn't translate in to Austrian.

I have never seen this link before (maybe you have), but it certainly explains what happens to my computer after I go to bed.

You should try these sleeping arrangements:

Nope, wouldn't work for me.  I would be sweating, the monitor would fall, and I would electrocute myself!

I am taking up an offering to buy Portland a collective brain to use when natives need to drive in the snow.  The nice thing is, they'll only need to use it once or twice a year, so it should have a good shelf life.

Our street, for instance, probably has 8-10 abandoned cars just left in the middle of the street because their drivers saw a flake or two of snow and had nervous breakdowns.

Back from the long jog - even though the sun is out, it's really quite chilly and I just don't like jogging in cold air.  But, I did it, and now I shall drive about in my motor car for a little while, after which I shall return with some food and watch some DVDs.

DR Der Brucer - Be sure to warn your Son-in-Law that there are lots of mountains - steep grades coupled with some long-winding stretches - during the last two segments of his trip.  I81 through Virginia is also a longer - and hill-ier(!!) - trip than one would think, and it's best to fill-up the gas tank "ahead of schedule" in order to avoid being trapped on top of one of the mountains trying to find an open gas station far off one of the exits.  -And since he'll also have a trailer in tow..

Well, I've gone through the "you can't predict your gas consumption solely based on miles driven" and "there is not a filing station wherever you need one"  lesson at least three times; he thinks 20 miles of highway without roadside service is desolation. To compound the problem, he keeps toying with the idea of skipping the Roanoke layover and continuing the last leg of the trip through the night.

Sometime I'd like to take VA drive as a passanger so I could enjoy the scenery

And will you teach this Portland Brain to dance?

Sorry I have been E&T but I have been putting in extra hours at work due to the library being open for 24 hours for Dead week and Finals week.

However, I have today off since the library is closed due to inclement weather....

The windchill right now is 22 degrees below zero and the winds are gusting to 50 mph.  Think I'll stay inside today.  Wonder how Dakota is doing. It's really cold and snowy in Fargo

I am basically drifted in... nice place to be and that is at home... THere is not travel advised up here and the two interstate highways are closed along with several key US highways.
