When I glanced out my window, my nice young neighbor on my left was snow blowing the sidewalk and my neighbor across the street came over and snow blowed where the mailbox is and my car. The city snow grader had come by a few minutes before and blocked me in with snow

This particulary batch of ice is NASTY....In some areas it has to be 4-6 inches thick
You shouldn't risk falling on it Ref
it is supposed to melt..mon or tues, I think.

our main roads are clear, but I have to walk my 175lbs mastiff
over a patch of ice to get to his favorite field.

he pulls you know, when he gets excited to play. Normally I can control him. (barely)
but on the ice? I have fallen down at least three times...lol

I need to put spikes on my shoes

What kind of effect do you think this weather's going to have on the caucus?

I know, but Alabama does suck. I'm not a cold weather person, though. So, I guess I'm better off here, but I'd love to spend some time in a place like Boston, New York, D.C., or L.A. (or Europe or Austrialia or Ireland). Whenver I do travel for work, I don't go anywhere fun and seldom have time for anything anyway - it's more like another stupid, boring hotel box, that's just about as interesting as the last one.

It's doesn't suck, it just not a place a person like you should be living (ideologically) .

I say that about many of the board members here and at the former PNut Forum (R.I.P). When people on this board describe weird religious neighbors, strange goings on on school boards and other whacky shit, it's almost impossible for me to comprehend a populace like that.

I'm the probably the least liberal of the left leaning people on this board but yet I live in the middle of liberal heaven.

It has it's draw backs let me tell you. Taxes are insane. Regulations abound, and there's a good ole' boy network of politicians and public "servants" that goes back generations.

hard to tell in Iowa, it may be really nice that week.

I would speculate that it would have to be a major storm to keep people home, but I hope for good weather just in case

Holy crap! What a mess here...woke up to a blizzard and by the time it's over this afternoon may have close to a foot of snow. We never get this kind of snow in December.
