20º in ABQ; 25% humidity at 6A…man shot & killed last night in the Duke City; car crashed into vehicles in a car lot at Lomas & Wyoming; another ABQ burglary caught on camera, and by neighbors; had breakfast, then went back to bed, and continued our rest from yesterday’s activities; 2010 Census jobs still available in the Sandia Pueblo & Sandoval CNTY;

ten states facing blizzard conditions; snow from KS to MN; fifty vehicle pileup in OK; the ‘amazing’ Winter White House in HI; the Obamas will be on vacation for two weeks; country singer will walk 1,700 to raise awareness of the homeless; a complete gift wrapped APT is in Chicago; Freddie Mac & Fannie Mae now offered unlimited financial support; temps from the 10s to the 70s; buy a new electric car in OK for $895…but read the fine print before sealing the deal; actor Morgan Freeman is also a certified pilot, that’s why he bought a gift as a holiday ‘gift’, Brad & Angelina are also licensed to fly; health care reform bad for small businesses?; snow across the N Plains; PA student suspended after being told not to wear a Santa suit to school; icy conditions in WV, VA & the Carolinas; missing eleven year old MD girl’s body was found near the DE border with that state; for one family in Key West, FL, there was ‘snow’ [crushed ice] for the holiday; more E Coli found in meat shipped to six Midwest states;
