Nah, man, that's still not it.

But did you know that Desmond Llewelyn, Welsh actor who played Q (short for Quartermaster) during the golden age of Bond, also starred in the children's move Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? Did you further know that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was adapted from a book written by Bond writer Ian Fleming? Did you even further know that the screenplays for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Bond film You Only Live Twice were both written by Roald Dahl, writer of popular children's books Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, and The Witches? Did you finally know that Roald Dahl also wrote macabre short stories for adults, one of which was adapted for Alfred Hitchcock Presents and later adapted for a film by Quentin Tarantino?

None of that matters. Because that knowledge won't save you from WINTER STORM Q.

Or maybe it will. Because now you know. And knowing is half the battle. Go Joe.

At 3 pm today, the snow will start to fall and it won't stop until we've gotten THREE INCHES. That is, we're expecting an average snowfall tonight. We're in the AWARE sector of the map. Kansas, Nebraska, and Missouri are taking it on the collective, anthropomorphic chin for us. Many thanks to them.
