BeBop Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I can't get to work. Even McDonalds is closed. I can't claim its a big deluge here (Tukwila, WA), but life's ground to a halt. Still not so hungry that I'll eat the nutritionally dreadful food the hotel "restaurant" serves, but it may be just hours away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Tapscott Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 What's snow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeBop Posted January 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I think it's the same stuff that I tackled while on crutches last January in New York. And the preceding winter in Spokane (broken arm, two broken wrists, broken coccyx...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the preceding winter in Spokane (broken arm, two broken wrists, broken coccyx...) Goodness gracious me, that sounds really painful ,presumably they were skiing injuries. Snow is dreadful stuff, memories of snow bound freezing winters of my childhood are still fresh in my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utevsky Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I can say I've "enjoyed" this snowstorm because we didn't lose power as many others did. Also, I've been able to get to work, although the buses aren't very reliable. Seattle does have trouble dealing with snow. We're not used to it and some people have no clue how to drive in it. But it's hilarious that the L.A. Times referred to us as "snow wimps." Can you imagine how L.A. would deal with 8 or 10 inches of snow? http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/nationnow/2012/01/seattle-snow-storm.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregK Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I wish we were having a normal winter here. Very little snow, much warmer than usual...maybe I should move to Seattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejp626 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 I wish we were having a normal winter here. Very little snow, much warmer than usual...maybe I should move to Seattle. Well, Michigan is usually about a day behind Chicago, so I suspect you'll have snow tomorrow. Anyway, I am certainly glad that I can skip winter in Chicago this year, even if it was freakishly warm the first week of Jan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
