Drive slowly and cautiously. With snow, comes wind!

Speaking of snow, I just got home from work in lieu of our winter storm system coming through!

that's strange, it only started coming down hard over here a little more than an hour ago

What the f***?! You both have goddamn snow, and I'm in the MIDDLE!!! Theres more salt than snow on the ground. The trucks are so bored/tired of wasting gas that there are TWO of them parked on my street shooting the s***.

Tito- I know you need some on occasion between visits to me, but DAMN, a grand pa?!?! Thats just messed up. Unless he only has on a robe and slippers.

I'm actually quite amused at how quickly it is accumulating on sidewalks, roof tops, window sills, and cars. I mean, I've seen snow last winter, but never saw it fall heavy before because it mostly happened at night in Pittsburgh. This is nuts! I wish I didn't lose my camera!

hahahahahahahaha, a **** ton of birds just landed all over the neighborhood because they can't fly in the snow!

I'm willing to honestly say that there is a half an inch on the ground already!

Take empty beer cans and boxes and tape them together to make a sled

lol, I stopped at the grocery store on the way home, the place was packed and everyone was stocking up on food so that they didnt have to go out later. The only thing in my cart was a 30 pack and a Heinekin mini keg, and I've got a bottle of Grey Goose at home. Come get me when the snow melts

here you go. now i've tried to use the tupperware thingy before, but it pretty much just digs in since it doesn't have the taper (i think that's the right word to use) to slide very well. so you lay the tarp down, put the storage bin on it, 2-liters in front to make the slope, then wrap it up and use your body to keep the tarp ends inside the bin.

LMFAO, thats awesome! You're in CT. Why haven't you hung out with Tito and I on a good night?

Good call on GG. I'm a fan of Belvedere for the extra few dollars though (speaking as if I was drinking it straight up on the rocks). The tequila I have was a leftover for cheap at my local liquor store, so I'm unsure of its quality. But by the smell of it, it didn't seem all to rough. Its quite fragrant. I have some high hopes for it. And if not, I have tequila mix.
