Should have told people to stay home.
Don't have the guts to "interrupt" business and school.
It happens. The smart ones stayed home.

Yup. School folks, government folks, business folks, TV 'journalists', and probably some
tourists...all stupid. Should have stayed home.


Yup. Every time they get snow or ice down south it's a "disaster."
They were warned by the weatherman.
Shut 'er down.
And if "they" don't, take personal responsibity for yourself.
Or wait in traffic for +24 hours.


The problem here and probably there is all those people with 4 wheel drive.
Years ago, they rarely closed Donner Pass during snow storms. People ran
chains and the speed limit was / is 25 mph when chain controls are in
effect. But with all those 4x4 mini pickups, the idiots would drive 70 mph
and cause huge wrecks. So now the CHP will run caravans at slow speed, or
close the highway if not enough cops to caravan.


After years of daydreaming, last time we were out in a blizzard it
finally happened... Some asshole who was driving like an asshole, not
giving a ****, was wrapped around a pole about five miles down the road
from where we first encountered the ****head... I laughed, you bet I
did. I consider guys like that no different than someone who would pull
a gun on me on the sidewalk... Just this weapon has a 2000 pound
projectile, not a tiny little ball of lead. Same difference though,
point it at me, I have to think you want to kill me... so I will react
in kind if forced to....

My brother in law deferred his trip back to Indiana when he saw the
weather forecast. Atlanta traffic sucks in a sunny summer day.

I am not sure why he goes back at all, at least until Spring.
I think that is the second week of June in Kokomo.


Don't know why many people don't take it seriously. especially in the
south, where they're not equipped to handle smow/ice.
Doesn't happen often, but it's always a disaster.
If public officials had the guts to issue a warning off the roads, most
businesses would comply. Schools is a no-brainer.
It's not uncommon to do so up north.
Hell, even the weather folks will do it often enough.

I use to teach a week-long class on newsletter writing and production at
UND in the late summer. Did that for a number of years. Beautiful
campus, lousy town, and most of the rest of the state...aside from the
northern bit of shore along Lake Michigan...was...awful. Especially in
the summer.
