On the noon news here they showed how they let all the nonessential govenment employees go home this morning...instead
of going home, many went to lcoal bars in the DC area!
I'd do the same thing. What else are you going to do in that kind of weather?
Maybe some cross country skiing? No mountains to climb.

And after they're all plastered they can get in their cars and drive on
the ice and mayve run down some essential government employees?
Hopefully they can drive better drunk than you type sober!

I have an excuse...
