    finally just switched back to snow here after an inch and a half of ice on top of 7 inches of snow that I cleared at 5:30 this morning. They are still saying we should see another foot here also.

    Whomp. There it is.



    For a bonus point, where is this foot from?

    BTW...your bonus points would be more challenging if you could conceal the URL that you got it from.

    Yeesh! I know nuhsink!

    RR's parent company, MTBR, hides the urls when posted like that, so I just assumed RR did, too. My bad.

    We've had the same dirty four inches of snow 'round these parts for three days. For some vexing reason they keep delaying/cancelling schools. We never missed class due to cold wind in my day...

    Geeez, I'm sounding like a particularly old, resident geezer from this very place...
    So, I broke into the palace
    With a sponge and a rusty spanner
    She said : "Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing"
    I said : "That's nothing - you should hear me play piano"

    I'm working from home again today. i was supposed to have a 7am Webex with a European customer but after losing power from 3pm yesterday till 630am this morning i didn't know it was canceled.

    We got 17 inches of snow, 1.5 inches of ice on top of last weeks 14inches.

    I can't remember a winter like this in 35-40 years

    Wow. I guess I shouldn't be surprise really. I'd heard that there were some bad circumstances going down on the Right Coast and you're in the thick of it, eh?

    In these parts it' just ridiculous how a lil' dusting, mild wind and cold temperatures has folks scrambling as if the end were near...

    You have my sympathy. We've had a few winters like that in the last decade. Last year was one of them. After a while you just run out of room. You can't shovel your drive, because there's just no place to put it! This was our house two years ago (the old house). And we had a couple more nice storms after that!

    Yeah, you do sound an awful lot like Finch.

    You need to stop that.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.
