I guess at some point they streamlined M:tG and I found it surprisingly intuitive considering that it was getting bloated when I got out (need new card ideas = new rules). I had expected it to be a huge mess after another 15 years of that but they must have ironed it all out.

Multiple fatalities in GA , the Gov declared a state of emergency, The National Guard is here and the Atlanta Journal Constitution listed the wrecks as "Too many to count". ( The ever increasing tally was over 940 Tuesday).

Yeah, Atlanta really ****** this one up.

My office closed at noon in Athens yesterday. I've been working from home today although we got the warning that the offices were still technically closed. (We have a project go live in less than a week. I'm a team player.)

I think it's melting now though.

I went out for lunch and there was... water falling, like from the sky. Not much, not enough to dampen the street; but still. It was weird.

I mean, I've heard of this happening in other places.

We had six inches of snowfall over the weekend and it hasn't been warming than 10F all week, with lows hitting -20F (The wind chill is something so unimaginably cold that I stopped caring about the specifics). Schools have been closed or delayed, local activities have been canceled, and I've been to work on time all week. People are pansies about this stuff. Throw on another layer, man up, and get to it.

No, no that's just concentrated fog. Don't let yourself be fooled.

I had the air conditioning on in my car today. It was just a slight bit too warm otherwise.

A snowstorm that shut down metropolitan Atlanta forced the youngest son of Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., to abandon his car and walk 10 miles in the cold.

“My youngest son abandoned his car and called me at 2 a.m., when he finally got home,” Isakson said when asked about the storm. “He walked 10 miles because you couldn’t move anywhere because everything was blocked.”

Oh wow, that's pretty bad. Smiley: eek

Quote:
The storm dropped 3 inches of snow on the city and covered its streets with ice, causing traffic accidents and forcing many to abandon their cars, while others were stranded.

Wait... what? Smiley: dubious

I'm stuck waiting on 2 or 3 critical orders from a company in Georgia. Called them on Tuesday and they said they can't ship out next day air deliveries for Wednesday, then they called and said they can't make it Thursday... now I'm wondering if I'll be able to get the items by Monday :/

This is similar to what happened here in the Triangle around 2005. Cars abandoned on the highways. kids sleeping ove at school. It wasn't much snow but I guess the ice did everyone in. It's why our county is so **** now about closing schools early just in case. I guess thousands of kids playing sleepover messed them up.

Another snow day tomorrow. Send wine please.

Duct tape the kids to the wall? Or take them skating if there's an ice rink nearby and enjoy watching them get very tired and fall on their *** for an afternoon.

I'd never thought that endurance was dependent on size. Smiley: blush

Our weather has been nicely boring; Cold, but not abnormally so for the north in January. But no polar votexes or alberta clippers or noreasters this week.
