Laugh it up fuzzball Star Wars

Meanwhile, one more day of -10's here, turning to -20's from Waterloo, through Cedar Rapids, the Quad Cities, Peoria, to Chicago.

All uphill from here.   ::newyear::

Thursday supposed to bring another 8-12 inches of global warming to the Baltimore metro area. I pray it's twice that so I can put Uncle Bob the cat to work. The city is always extra slow in terms of removal when it's deep and I can make out br contracting privately with the neighborhoods/streets block by block. Please Lord, make it a big one. ::bows::

In Raleigh NC, the traffic is down to 15 miles per hour due to low visibility as the citizens flee the storm.
“My mission today is to go forth and tell people about why I follow Christ and also what the Bible teaches, and part of that teaching is that women and men are meant to be together.

“However, I would never treat anyone with disrespect just because they are different from me. We are all created by the Almighty and like Him, I love all of humanity. We would all be better off if we loved God and loved each other.”

It's comin' --Ha "It's here"  North of Birmingham, Alabama we got about 3-3 1/2 inches of the white stuff in 2 hours and they say maybe another half inch to come.  I know it ain't much to y'all up north, but it's more than we can handle down here.  Their telling us to stay off the roads until about noon tomorrow when it warms up to melt the snow

One word: Minnesota.
 ::stirpot::
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Rusty called me this morning. He didn't say "Hi," "Hello," Goodmorning," or anything like that.

He said, "Bring down your plow!" The poor guy got 4" of flurries. He said I'd be rich if I was down there with my tractor just clearing driveways!

Six inches of snow yesterday compressed into four inches from sleet last night; snowing again for about an hour.

Trees look pretty; all the branches are coated.

Oh, and we're expecting temps in the 60s/70s by Tuesday.  At which point "the skinny, blue children" whom have no coats -- thus shouldn't be expected to be waiting at bus stops in the frigid -- will re-emerge, from the school closings, in their usual shorts and flip-flops.

Hope CG isn't on the way -- roads totally dry, only snow left is back in the woods where the sun hasn't reached yet.  --  temp on our covered patio 54 degrees and it's sunny.  Was at work by 9:45 and just got home - As they say here, "If you don't like the weather in Alabama -- wait a minute".

We got about 10" of snow here near Charlotte, though the amount of sleet and freezing rain on top of it did compress it down. I think we probably got closer to a foot of actual snow. Very pretty, and fortunately the power stayed on for the duration. I was actually slightly disappointed, because I wanted an excuse to use my new generator.

Freaking lousy warm air just pushed in so fa inland it began to rain on top of the 12 plus inches of snow in Baltimore. That was all it took to ruin my day, everyone had no problem removing the snow in and around their cars. sh*t! No Bobcat necessary. Perhaps in March will get another Noreaster that will dump 18 plus, who knows. Hate these piss ant little snow accumulations. ::cussing::

Isn't it nice to know Mother Ghia dropped another 6 inches of global warming between now and my last post. This means I get to shovel the driveway and clear the cars off one more time. I'm certain the plow truck will come by and push another mound of snow at the bottom of the driveway apron.  ::snoshovel:: seems so appropriate now. ::whatgives::
