And Al Gore wins an Oscar tomorrow. He truly is a POS.

This is a freaking GREAT storm. It cannot make up it mind to snow, rain or sleet. So under what is being forecast as 15-20 inches of snow by Monday morning there is this nice half inch sheet of ice.

I am SO glad Al Gore is getting an Oscar for Global Warming while we shovel out of the worst storm in more then 3 decades.

So where is my FEMA cash card?

When will this madness end?

I have a bucket of Heinekens and I'm going to ride this storm out. All I know is the government better come rescue me and bus me to some football stadium or I'm going to go on a looting rampage.
