SNOW SNOW SNOW!

was just using my snowblower to clear the drive/walkways. feet came right out from under me and I slammed into the ground. Aggravated a pre-existing neck issue; I'm an unhappy camper.

on the bright side your genitals didn't get mutilated in a freak snowblower accident

I believe the pc way to say that was "on the bright side you weren't watching a 49ers game"

Major blizzard over the weekend - drifts up to 9 ft high in places, highways closed, high winds and -20 C. My son was the only one in his class to make it to school today, only about 1/4 of the teachers made it. Some pics from the Calgary Herald:

Some of those pictures are crazy. We're supposed to get 8 to 12 inches tomorrow night (I live in North Jersey).

I bet we're sitting at about 9-11" right now. Not uncommon for us, but the plows have been terrible. It's late coming this year and they were given extra money in the budget, yet there's very few clearing these streets. This snow has persisted for over 24 hours and they just now came down our street.

We are suppose to get 2-4 this afternoon and then another 2-4 overnight. I've also heard more is on the way for this weekend.

Started snowing around 5 this morning. We're supposed to end up with 4-6, depending on the area. Working from home today

Calling for 12 - 18" starting this evening. Looks like I'll be off tomorrow.

damn guys. We get 4 inches and people flip, 18 inches I'm reasonably certain, would shut down the greater St. Louis area entirely.

i have always lived in houston...so i have no idea what snow is

some questions ive always had
-what do you do when it snows really bad where you cant go anywhere. just get really drunk for like a week? does the whole city shut down? i cant imagine much is open w 9' of snow. wat if you are stuck w someone you dont like...or an ugly 1 night stand. that would suck
-how does school work. do they just estimate 2 weeks extra each year to make up for the snow days
-how do emergency vehicles make it places w 9' of snow. doesnt seem like you could drive through that
-for work...do you have to use vacation time when you cant make it in. that would suck.
