Did she order pizza near Great Falls, Virginia.. Domino's Pizza. 8-]

A Domino's Pizza delivery man ponders his next move after his vehicle got stucked on a snow-covered road in Great Falls, Virginia, February 6, 2010. A blizzard producing heavy snow and powerful winds pummeled the U.S. mid-Atlantic on Saturday, causing at least two fatalities and paralyzing travel in the region. Snowfall totals of 20 to 30 inches (51 to 76 cm) are forecast from Virginia to southern New Jersey by Saturday evening when the storm is expected to move out to sea.

I miss sliding down big snowy hills on chunks of cardboard and flying saucers

“I’m sure there is a law that forbids that type of activity now. “

No, just a reprimand if you’re a Brit cop sliding on your riot shield.

Here in Aiken County, SC, the wind is blowing, the sky is cloudy and it’s pretty cold. Where is my FEMA debit card?

Article Tools EmailPrintPenguins facing a travel dilemma Saturday, February 06, 2010 By Dave Molinari, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
MONTREAL--Washington is one of many cities in the East being battered by snow today, and reports this morning indicate that travel into and out of that area is treacherous, at best.

That's an issue for the Penguins, who will face Montreal today at 2:08 p.m. at the Bell Centre but are scheduled to play Washington at the Verizon Center Sunday at 12:08 p.m.

Team officials still are trying to settle on the best way to get the team to Washington after the game against the Canadiens Because virtually all air traffic into that region has been stopped, one option might be to fly as close as they can, then take a train or bus the rest of the way.

Of course, that assumes that the trains are running or that the highways are passable.

While there's no indication yet that Sunday's game will be postponed, it's a possibility that, for obvious reasons, hasn't been ruled out, either.

Our game here with the Hershey Bears playing the Little Penguins has been cancelled until tomorrow. Read more: http://postgazette.com/pg/10037/1034112-100.stm#ixzz0emhITygJ

I feel sorry for pizza delivery people. Our local radio begged listeners to tip during the storm, even if it was late. Pizza Hut delivery person called into station saying people refusing to tip.

This just proves that Global Warming is a lot worse than originally predicted.

Picture standing just outside the back door of my garage in northern Maryland. A drift higher than 4ft (see measure embedded in drift) runs across the whole back of the house.
