Funny thing is that the global warming people blame bad winters on global warming. I guess thats why they now call it climate change so it will fit any weather we have.

And while we are at it... F ice! We got about 2 inches of snow from this latest storn yesterday and now it has been sleeting for about 10 hours.

Yeah, it took me a good 20 minutes to clear the ice off my car, and then on the way in at least 3 large sheets of it flew off of other cars and nearly hit me.
The worst part is that I'm not very busy at the moment, so it really wasnt worth the risk to come to work today.

When I had a long commute I normally called out it is not worth the chance. I always said I will go in when I make more then my deductable ($500) in a day.

Now I am less then a mile and with a 4Runner I can either walk or drive without getting into trouble.

I'd rather be too cold than hot. You can only take so much off. I like the cold because when the ground freezes it kills the mosquito eggs. We used to get snow all the time. That was before Al Gore. F all Gore and his global warming. We all take off of work when it snows and inch and get paid for it. He he he

F winter for making me lazy and fat. If it wasn't for winter I would be outside going for walks, riding my bike and shit.

Pretty shitty weather here in DC this morning. The side streets were awful getting out of my neighborhood, but the main roads are fine. The sidewalks are pretty slick, but all in all, downtown Bethesda is pretty normal.

I like snow, and I like cold weather, but F ice.

I drove up to DC Wednesday and when I turn off 64 near Richmond on to 295 it was 68. In just 15 miles the temp dropped to 38 and stuck there all the way into DC.

It's been really cold here too.
I had to wear gloves this morning.

i cant get out of my driveway yet. Im not about to try to clear it it's like 300ft long and gravel, and I have to climb a hill at the end to get to the road.

I don't mind, though. I went to wegmans the other day (bad ass grocery store btw) and stocked up on stuff to make homemade soup and got some movies and i think im getting sick from taking my girls out and playing in the snow.

I took the day off I wanted nothing to do with this weather. No sense in taking 2 hours to get to work and 2 hours to get home. Plus if the office decided to close early it would really have been a wasted day.

I second the F Ice call. Yesterday was our first real snow in NOVA, or at least here in Woodbridge, but I damn well hope it was our last. I say F ice because I when I had to leave for work at 3:40 this morning, my car looked like an ice sculpture. And since it's old as hell, it barely defrosts. What I'm trying to say is I was 15 minutes late for work because it took me half an hour to scrape ice off my windshield and drivers/shotgun side windows.
