   Any complications from this serves us right for buying into a monopoly.

   I hope the comic truckers are used to driving in snow, or we’ll see more comics being um, ditched. Form a Comics Convoy, boys.

   Dan Manser says Diamond’s home office will not reopen until tomorrow until the earliest.

   He also says there may be some weather-related impact on the retailers receiving orders from the Olive Branch, Mississippi warehouse; as my mother, who lives nearby, just phoned me in a panic, snow is dumping there right now.

   Odd. For some reason I’m surprised that they host their website in-house.

   Stranger than hosting a website in house is that the servers did not have a backup generator or power supply. (Especially given the last blackout.) Perhaps it didn’t last? No mirror site at Mississippi, where I suspect most of the business occurs?

   I hope everyone’s okay. I guess they could burn old … no, that would be barbaric.

   More snow is expected tomorrow and/or Wednesday, so we could see next week’s books effected too.

   Expect delays in delivery in the eastern half of the country. Big snow starts soon. UPS trucks may be slowed.
