That half inch of snow we were supposed to get last night? Oh yeah. FIVE. And that ice I mentioned here earlier? It's under the snow, obviously. Guess who isn't a very happy camper today. :|

I suggest all southern state residents be required to spend one winter of their lives, before the age of 21, in upstate NY in order to familiarize them with snow and ice and avoid future fatalities and accidents.

Someone broke their leg slipping on campus yesterday. Thankfully, class was canceled again today because of the snow. I haven't had class since Monday because, even though we were supposed to have class yesterday, most of the professors canceled. Texas is weird. :|


Oh, and I was up til 3 frolicking in the snow. Some things never change. :)

As of about 7am today, there were fifty reported here. I don't know of any fatalities, fortunately. Prayers for the family and friends of those people.

and it is mighty cold. luckily the island (Galvetraz) isn't as iced over as Houston or the rest of the mainland.

Yup! The cities didn't close down any highways until there were too many accidents. When they did try to close them, it was already too late! :/

The local market got right on top of treating the parking lot, making sure it was clear of ice and snow yesterday and easy to navigate... right after someone broke their arm. :crazy:

LUCKY!! I've lived in Colorado for three and a half years and i'm still waiting for a good 5" snow storm! Except, they don't get ice here, so yeah.

Wow...so, how's the Super Bowl thing going to go with the fans unable to get into the state?
[/quote]


hopefully it won't. jerry can take his stadium and shove it up his yoompis. give us the tax money back so we can fix our streets and hire more cops to combat the crime wave sweeping over arlington.


ppfftt! on the super bowl....ppfftt! on jerry jones...ppfftt! on pro sports in general...


loving the snow though
