No problem. I did it for you.
I hate dirty snow, it gets really ugly here.
Now, where DID I put those skis...
Aggghhhhh my eyes!!!!
The kids are already starting their snow dance in anticipation of a day off on Monday!
Bout time, bring it on!
Wood is piled high, fireplace ready to radiate the warmth.
Just keep the freezing rain away, no good for antennas.
Good Lord, what a bunch of babies.
Wow! It's gonna snow! Run for the hills! Sheesh!
I suppose you are referring to how this might alter the Micheal Vick experience, I presume?
Hey this is Philly, don't you know we're cursed?! LOL..they're saying the snow may stop by game time but will be windy.
Snow in NJ sucks. I lived in Ringwood for 10 years and moved back to God's country (northern MI) last year. It snows everyday and I could care less!
lol - between exit 11 and exit 13
Are you a Yooper?

You poor souls try to survive the disaster somehow. My thoughts are with you!
Have you ever visited the Great Lakes area or upper NY? The people over there start to call the white stuff snow when they can't find their car after a few hours of parking.

That may be true but the Great Lakes & upstate NY don't have 8 million people all trying to get somewhere while it is falling.
6-12" of snow along I-95 between Philadelphia and New York City is a heck of a lot more serious and dangerous than 24" of snow in Ogdensburg NY.
