I hope the entire I-95 from Richmond to Maryland goes up in a flaming ball of red justice. I just got to work after a THREE Hour commute, and I live 18 miles away. We had one inch of snow, which promptly melted, and then turned to ice and every ******* with half a brain got into an accident because people in this area can't drive to save their souls.

Die, die, die.

Hmmm. Your topic leaves a lot to be desired for people who just woke up and thought you meant the board...

I live in the Seattle area. We rarely get snow to speak of. Due to that most people here are clueless about how to drive in snow. On the other hand there's a handful of people (like myself) that grew up (even took driver's ed) in the nasty white stuff.

When I see 2, 3, 4, 10, 50 cars piled up I just drive slowly past then and wave.

Actually, most of the accidents were folk that thought their SUV would keep them from sliding around on black ice.

Which people? Occasionally I want some people to shut up, but it's like asking for apples from an elm. I have yet to wish death on anyone, even virtually.

Except capital area commuters. Die you dirty whores. Get AIDS and die.

Are you aiming your guns at anyone in particular(besides me)?

I think phase II of plan "me no more smokey" is in effect.

Actually, no, I gave it up last night after just 7 short hours of living hell. =)

I think perhaps we've had a misunderstanding! Let me tell the whole story.

I woke up, stumbled out to my computer, clicked my board link and saw "You go to hell and you die, a$$holes." Being the sleepy, paranoid Fly that I am I thought I was going to see some horrible rant telling the OOT forum you hated us all. =( Several thousand thoughts shot through my sleepy brain, which they had time to do since the forum is running like **** today. Most of them consisted of "who. what. wtf!?"

Then I read your post and was enlightened, and relieved.

So no gun aiming. =) Just confusion on my part.

Well heavens to Betsy. No way! Although I toy with that idea often, the fact that I type like a toddler keeps me from acting on it.

Maybe you should take scissors and snip your cigs, making them ever shorter. When I was little mom would rub hot peppers on my thumb to make me quit sucking on it. It was hell when I rubbed my eyes, though. Ow.

Yeah, I saw the title, and I saw the poster, and I thought to myself, I says "Self, that's just unexpected it is. Lets go on in and take a looksee wot?" I thought I would see you dancing around the fire roasting "Insert posters name here" lifeless body while giggling maniacly or something.

But this is fun too.

Trust me, nothing gives Chicagoians more mirth than to read news stories about how Seattle, Atlanta or some other "never sees snow" city got 1.5" of the white stuff and had to be shut down Smiley: laugh

I lived in Salt Lake for a year before moving here. That year was one of the weirdest winters according to the locals. According to a few SLC usually would have snow by Halloween. However they didn't see snow until the middle of December; when 12 feet dumped on them in a 7 day period.

Before SLC I spent 20 years in North Idaho and Eastern Washington where there's plenty of snow from early November through the middle of April. During all that time we had maybe 5 snow days because of high winds, not really because of snow.

So Jophiel, I kinda have to chuckle along with you when a few inches shuts us down. The main reason most people in the Puget Sound region don't go anywhere is we're all unprepared. Snow tires, chains, studs, sand/gravel/salt on the roadways, traction sand in the trunk and the other snow gear don't really exist around here.

Try living in north eastern Ohio sometime. The weather is more unpredictable than anything. Just this past week on saturday it was 60 degrees and sunny out, 3 days later it was 0 with wind chills in the negative teens. Sometimes it rains in the middle of january then we get a snow day in may. Nowadays we just watch the weather on tv and say well I'll just expect the opposite for today.
