Why I haven't been on NICO for two days.

[naladude911]

Thursday night the northeast got hit with a HUGE snow storm, with over 2 feet accumulation in some parts. This of course was too much snow for the trees to handle and soon they were falling all over the place, knocking out power for over 28,000 residents. That included me. I lost power for over 2 days, with no heat except our fire place. I had to go shower at club fit to stay clean lol. All of the side roads were pretty much inaccessible for two days, as seen with the following pictures. I had fun driving around on them tho, Nissan Pathfinders/QX4's are beast in the snow. I did get stuck going up my driveway tho in 4HI. It took me 3 hours to get it up, and I had to shovel it out after landing in a snow bank. My dad's tahoe had no problem . This resulted in me getting some new tires (my goodyear fortera's were almost bald) and got bridgestone duelers. Thats a road

BTW, my plow kinda works. During the storm the plow guy did our driveway and I tried using the plow with as little snow that was left on our driveway. It worked for a bit but I couldnt pull it up the driveway since it was all ice. Ill try again with less snow.

Why are you surprised that the Tahoe had no problem? Almost bald tires means no decent grip in snow or wet weather! You will slide everywhere.

If it is "all ice", less snow will not make a difference, I'd think. Good luck with it.

Nice pictures, by the way ... makes me slightly miss living in New England.

Yea you guys got hammered.

Guess your dad's Tahoe weight made the difference.

[naladude911]

yea. my WTF comment was directed to "my QX4 has a good 4WD system, I should have no problem. Time for new tires". Sure enough I was right.

[bobotech]

I like the pitchers.

Ok, so to summarize, you brag your ex-mom QX4 is a "beast" in the snow yet you still managed to get it stuck in your own driveway for 3 hours despite having it in AWD. Then after you demonstrated a complete inability to drive in snow, your parents went out and bought you a new set of tires for it.

Then you brag about your snow plow "sort of" working but then admit it actually failed miserably after trying it on an already plowed driveway. but you intend to test it again when conditions are absolutely perfect.

Yep you're back.....

It took me 3 hours to get it up

I lulz'd. Taking things out of context owns.

Hilarity aside, I enjoyed the pictures! Glad to hear you got power back.

[ADDirishboy]

Awesome pics. Makes me want to get the hell out of AZ.

[krash]

yea it was almost that bad over here a couple weeks ago. A bunch of trees broke and fell over and crap. We almost had that much snow too.

And you're forgetting about the ride height difference of your dads car and yours.

[leesredgt]

I would love to get that much snow here just one time at least! Everyone here would probably starve to death though.lol

We get an inch of snow here and all the schools and stores close,and everyone goes into a panic.

[naladude911]

school is canceled for tomorrow. One middle school has no power, and one elementary school is inaccessible due to trees and power lines.

Yes, it did take my 3 hours to get up my driveway. I drove up, got to the stop, slid back into a snow bank. Shoveled out. Got out, slide back again into another snow bank. Shoveled out. Did a head start up the driveway, got to the top, got stuck again. Shoveled out, and finally made it.

[Papi Chulo]

Do you have a job, Nala?

[krash]

Yea, he plows roads with his mom's QX4. GOSH HAVENT YOU BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO HIS THREADS??

some people....

[naladude911]

Although I am not paid, I currently help out at my martial arts school as an assistant instructor for kids 15 and under.

He just kicks little kids butts for free.

My son did the same exact thing when he took karate classes at age 12. When a students earn a high enough belt, they are invited to assist the instructors with the lower belt kids. Its a fun confidence builder but not a job.

one day he'll go pro and be in the company of Datte and myself.

You really want to be considered in the ranks of Nala?

[Jesda]

So many gems from this guy. I guess if I was going to get stuck in the snow, I'd want to get stuck in a neighborhood like that. Nice pictures

Nice pics nala

Although I am not paid, my Sensei, Ira, recently promoted me to purple belt, and gave me the duties of a Sempai. Not that a lot of people here in America know what a Sempai is, but it is equally as respected as a Sensei.

Seriously... How does your plow failing to plow a driveway that has already been plowed count as kind of working?

[Dattebayo]

Sure I kick little butts. But they aren't always from little people.

[Bubba1]

Although he doesn't get paid, he also works by taking out the family trash PLUS he brings in the mail from the mailbox! Sometimes without being reminded twice.

Though rumor has it that he will soon announce a special add-on frame to his snow plow so he can drive the recycle bins between the house and curb, though he still has to work out how to back up without crushing the whole contraption...

[krash]

dang bubba, you really hate him

[Bubba1]

dang bubba, you really hate him

I actually like him. His determination to walk repeatedly into walls face first with his eyes wide open inspires me.

[krash]

I think I've come to the point where I'm not going to tell him when he's going to fail anymore, I think I'm just going to encourage it. This will spread teh lulz and generate more hits for his username search on google.

[naladude911]

I got a job over spring break as a car detailer. Make around $100 per car.
