Post by: The Fake Shemp on December 18, 2009, 05:47:05 PM: People are running around like the Rapture is going to hit tomorrow. It's ridiculous.

Post by: BlueTsunami on December 18, 2009, 05:48:48 PM: Woke up, turned on the news, a balding weatherman was pointing to a band of semi dark blue streak running across my area. 8-12 inches :o

I wonder if the Giants / Skins game will be a kickass snow game.

Yeah, you'll get more snow, Will. I guess the wind is more of a factor on Long Island/New England.

Post by: Mr. Gundam on December 18, 2009, 06:10:57 PM: There's another snow storm expected to hit the midwest early next week. We're flying to Omaha through Minneapolis Tuesday morning. I sure hope the MPS-->OMA flight doesn't get canceled, cause there's no way we'll get put on another flight that close to Christmas, and our only other option would be to rent a car and drive from Minnesota to Nebraska.

Post by: Robo on December 18, 2009, 06:36:09 PM: I moved to downtown Fredneck because it is CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP relative to single-living in MoCo (I'm saving over $300 a month in expenses, even after considering the daily traveling to Rockville) and it's a bit more central to where most of my friends are living.

I thought one car was about to turn, which is hilarious to watch, but he was just signaling that he was going to turn in 2 minutes I guess to be careful.

alot of the snow has drifted. i measured an area in my backyard which was at over 24" and that was around 5pm today. the accumulation on my driveway was about around 17" around that time too.

My fucking shovel broke twice but I'm finally done (and beat everyone else to the punch). Took my brother and sister sledding and in the process found a pretty nice knife, which my dad said is probably worth a nice chunk of change.

Overall, it was a pretty good day.

If it snowed I'd be freaking the fuck out. When I lived in Seattle it would snow once or twice a year and it'd be awesome. Then it's over and I get on with my life.
