Sod the iPad, snowblowers are the thing…

Birdhouse in the snow

Before- snowblower power leaves the iPad behind...

After- a job well done by man's best friend- the snowblower

To be repeated, ad nauseum, until the storm abates…

About Steve Caplan

I am a Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha, Nebraska where I mentor a group of students, postdoctoral fellows and researchers working on endocytic protein trafficking. My first lablit novel, "Matter Over Mind," is about a biomedical researcher seeking tenure and struggling to overcome the consequences of growing up with a parent suffering from bipolar disorder. Lablit novel #2, "Welcome Home, Sir," published by Anaphora Literary Press, deals with a hypochondriac principal investigator whose service in the army and post-traumatic stress disorder actually prepare him well for academic, but not personal success. Novel #3, "A Degree of Betrayal," is an academic murder mystery. "Saving One" is my most recent novel set at the National Institutes of Health. Now IN PRESS: Today's Curiosity is Tomorrow's Cure: The Case for Basic Biomedical Research (CRC PRESS, 2021). https://www.amazon.com/kindle-dbs/entity/author/B006CSULBW? All views expressed are my own, of course--after all, I hate advertising.

    That looks like a tiny snowblower!
    I remember they used to be so massive. Maybe some still are. Last time I’ve seen anyone shovel or clear their driveway was 10 years ago (when I was in Eastern Canada for 10 years). We shoveled out the car for 9 years straight..then my Dad decides to buy the snowblower (and then we moved..)
