Dan's last day

It's Dan's last day of work at the Dept of Finance, after 7.5 years! I hope they give him a good send-off.

Two Picasso paintings were stolen from his granddaughter's house in Paris. These thefts of major art works are mysterious to me. What is the motivation to steal a painting you will never be able to sell or display publicly? Did the thief just want to hang it on his bedroom wall?

The rain seems to be ending for a few days at least, which will be nice to be able to spend some time outdoors again (although it is cold; it was 32 this morning). The mountains got a ton of snow. It came down as low as Auburn. Truckee got 5 feet between Thursday and yesterday.

  1. Please advise Dan not to steal anything too valuable from work on his last day. The trick is to make sure it is nothing anyone will notice for a couple weeks at least.
