Happy New Year to one and all.

BB reader Mike says,
Previously on BB:I like the pictures of a 1913 Denver blizzard that Flickr user etching has posted in his stream. (Just in his stream, not grouped, unfortunately.) It's a kind of silent editorial on the thousands and thousands of pics of the current mess. I didn't know that the buried car shot was actually a hundred years old, but I suspected as much. And I wish people still sledded down 8th Ave.

iChat Can’t Connect? Getting the Dreaded “User Has Declined Your Invitation” or Error -8? Here’s Why!: "Are you one of those people for whom iChat audio and video chatting used to work, but suddenly it has stopped working, for no apparent reason? Are you getting 'user has declined your invitation' or 'communications error' errors, or maybe even the dreaded 'error -8'? Have you changed nothing at all on your end, but suddenly you simply can't audio chat or video chat with some people - or maybe anybody?
Well, you're not alone."

iChat Can’t Connect? Getting the Dreaded “User Has Declined Your Invitation” or Error -8? Here’s Why!
Apparently there is a current challenge with making voice or video connections over iChat. I just had an opportunity to do a test with a friend of mine in the Bay area and we were unable to connect. Anyone else out there having a similar challenge?
We often think about the gas stations and grocery stores and the lack of supplies after storms. This is a great reminder.
Blood banks, hospitals try to replenish supply after storm: "DENVER (AP) - Blood supplies were running below normal at Colorado hospitals after last week's blizzard kept donors away, and the state's primary blood-collection agency said its supplies have fallen by nearly half."

O'Yippie! (Of course it might or might not hit us, as currently it's all just a prediction.)
Another 'major winter storm' possible later this week: "DENVER - With snow still piled up from last week's blizzard, another snowstorm is predicted to hit the metro area on Thursday and Friday."
