Snow!

[NCFJ]

And so it begins. Stores are already out of milk and bread. Schools were canceled around here yesterday because there MAY be ice on some roads. Personally, we have all we need and plan on sitting it out. I laugh a bit about how folks around here panic about a little snow. Where I grew up north of Philadelphia snow measured by the foot was common. I joke that around here they cancel school at the forecast of snow, when I was a kid the bus showed up during a blizzard, the doors opened and the driver threw the chains out the door "You two, put them on fast we're running late!"

Have fun everyone!

P.S. Donuts (at least attempting them) in a stock 80 series is a downer.

We had some on Sunday, and will get more Friday night. Our local harris teeter looked like a bomb went off inside the egg fridge on Monday evening, after the first snow was long gone.

Schools here were closed Mon and Tues, and yesterday the trucks put down allllllll the salt that wasn't needed the last two years we didn't have any snow. You can hear all the toyota bodies and frames crying, and all of the mechanics cursing at the upcoming rust.

This was yesterday at the pharmacy parking lot.

Inside the Teeter Dome. Two beeeetches enter, one leaves with eggs. All the cartons that were left had broken eggs in them

I'm the guy who doesn't care and just moves eggs around inside cartons. I figure if it comes out of a Chicken's VJ with minimal cleaning, its OK for old Uncle Weejub to move them around by hand. . . .

Even the follks up north wimp out with the snow and ice. Source: My father drove a school bus for 12+ years after he retired as a steelworker, and the number of days NEOhio closed/closes schools is unimaginable to me. People everywhere just overreact now - ice, I get it, but snow? C'mon.

Yesterday, I believe, was the anniversary of the 1978 Snowmageddon we had in NE Ohio. We had over 3.5 feet in a day. We got a day off school, the only snow day I had until college, when we got 18" in about 8 hrs in the Appalachian foothills in April.

We will survive, and we will rebuild…
