Proof that there is God.
Who are these people? Are you referring to those on your ping list??? If so, why?
LOL. Now that’s funny...
This could be the biggest snowfall this area has seen in 100 years.
At least you don’t have to shovel drizzle.
And just a light raincoat suffices, rather than longjohns, second teeshirt, lined flannel shirt, wool sweater, parka....
I hope that the system sits there and dumps snow over the area for about a week.
For your Maryland Ping List
Just praying power stays on. We got a Jeep. It’s in the garage.
Sing with me....
Makes me just want to burst out in song, too!
1. I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND ITS FORTY BELOW
THE WEATHERMAN TELLS ME ITS TOO COLD TO SNOW
I LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AND I KNOW THAT HE’S LYING
MY CAR’S OUT OF SIGHT AND THE SNOWS STILL FLYING
“WILL THE CAR START?” YOU KNOW IT WON’T
“DID THEY PLOW THE ROAD?” YOU KNOW THEY DON’T
“AM I LATE FOR WORK?” YOU KNOW YOU ARE
STUCK AGAIN? SO’S YOUR CAR
CHORUS:
I SHOVEL AND I SHOVEL AND I SHOVEL THAT SNOW
I GOTTA GET OUT, BUT MY CAR WON’T GO
I GET THE CABIN FEVER WHEN THE NORTH WIND BLOWS
I GOTTA GET OUT, BUT MY CAR WON’T GO
2. I CALL UP THE NEIGHBOR, HE’S GOT FOUR WHEEL DRIVE!
HE CAN’T GET OUT; HE’S BURIED ALIVE.
SNOWSHOE OVER, PLAY SOME FIFTEEN TWO
I GOTTA CHEER UP CAUSE I FEEL SO BLUE.
“CRANK UP THE BLOWER,” IT WON’T RUN
“GRAB THE SHOVEL,” ITS MUCH MORE FUN
“MY BACK IS BROKE,” (YOU’RE HALFWAY THERE!)
SNOWING AGAIN, BUT I DON’T CARE
(REPEAT CHORUS)
I HAVE A HOT DATE, CAN’T BE LATE!
STILL SNOWED IN; SHE JUST CAN’T WAIT.
STUCK IN THE DRIVE, STUCK IN THE HOUSE,
WATCHING TV STUCK ON THE COUCH.
“START EATING AGAIN,” (OH WHAT A BORE)
“I JUMPED A SIZE,” (OH EAT SOME MORE)
“I LOOK LIKE HELL,” (WELL LOOSEN THE BELT)
ONE OF THESE DAYS, THIS SNOW’S GONNA MELT
(REPEAT CHORUS)
We are well-provisioned, and the kids are primed to make Snow Goons tomorrow!
There’s a funny piece at The corner by Jonah Goldberg about his experience in line in D.C. :

I’m talking about the Global Warming Fanatics, not my PING list. I thought that was clear, but I guess not. My apologies to all.
And that He has a great sense of humor.
Maryland PING!
I lived in the DC area in high school and experienced a couple of those pre-snow panic sessions. My dad used to laugh and say "You'd think it had never snowed in this town." As I recall, toilet paper was a particularly hot commidity during the pre-blizzard panics.
I must admit that my (adopted) hometown of Houston behaves much the same way when there's a hurricane in the Gulf. ;-)
I know- living in Florida is the same way- the instant there’s a remote possibility we’re getting a hurricane- the weathermen go just over the edge.
Oddly- when we’ve had the REAL hurricanes- they get very sober and serious. The hysteria seems reserved for possibilities :)
Well provisioned here in Pittsburgh where they’re saying 14 inches by tomorrow afternoon.
Just returned from the eeeeevil Wal Mart and was shocked that I got the last bag of peas. Now c’mon people... peas?
I can understand being out of milk, bread, TP but.... peas?
Actually, I just about do.
