by Phillip Garland
This weekend's unexpected snowfall has you thinking about a few things.
persons, things or ideas that are present or near in place, time, or thought
or that has just been mentioned <these are my hands>
Shake a leg.
allow <we'll have no more of that>
This weekend's expected whistle gets him running at the marathon.
Thinking caps
(Originally considering caps)
Latinate to Old English-cum-Old High German.
Signaled in the Wisconsin newspaper The Kenosha Times.
In reference to safeguarding American independence from foreign powers.
There's no suggestion of a real cap.
Tomorrow's presuccessful hydrolysis gets me running to the reliquary.
Shake a leg, Phil. Empty the boxes for Jacobus de Voragine's wool sweaters.
Yessir!

"Church Deacon Kills Motorist with Crossbow"
BOSTON—Donald Graham saw Michael Blodgett
flash his high beams at another car, and Graham didn't like it.
Graham chased Blodgett's car for seven miles on Interstate 95
before both men pulled over.
As Blodgett approached Graham's car, the 56-year-old retired
autoworker and church deacon reached into his trunk
for his weapon and shot Blodgett—with a crossbow.
The arrow hit Blodgett in the shoulder, and its expanding
head scissored his insides. Within six hours, the 42-year-old emergency
medical technician had bled to death. |

Shake a leg, you! The origin of this phrase is likely nautical.
Show me a shaky leg and I'll show ye a man who can work.
Heave out! Heave out! Away!
Shake a leg.
The unexpected snowfall of this weekend fell in one breath—Shake a leg.
Snow dust on a plank of wood.
It's got you thinking about a few things.

"Canadian Accused in Crossbow Killing"
TORONTO—A Canadian man was charged with first-degree
murder Friday for fatally shooting his father in the back
with a crossbow in a Toronto library as shocked mothers
and children watched.
Zhou Fang, 24, appeared in court to face the murder
charge a day after Si Cheng, 52, was killed in the library
about an hour after a nearby school let out for the day.
The judge ordered that Fang be held without bail. |

"The German 'Trauer', like the English 'mourning', can mean both the affect of grief and its outward manifestation. Throughout the present paper, the word has been rendered --------."1
This wool sweater has got you thinking about something.
Humility, patience, sincerity, nonviolence, uprightness, purity, devotion to one's spiritual teacher, constancy, self-control, dispassion toward objects of the senses, freedom from the I-sense, insight into the evils of birth, sickness, old age, and death, detachment, absence of clinging to son, wife, family, and home, an unshakable equanimity in good fortune or in bad, an unwavering devotion
Yesterday's impending rescue has got you thinking about some things.
a city religious mission seeking to convert and rehabilitate
the down-and-out <a rescue mission>
to become affected by (a disease or bodily condition)
<got measles from his sister>
Make your event memorable by handing out thinking caps to the attendees.
Leg it.
