Because, you know, I was out there anyway and had a shovel and everything. So I wake up this morning to take a look at how much work I had this morning, and saw this:
People do notice when you do nice things, just for the sake of being nice.

We’re supposed to get anywhere up to a foot dumped on this part of Maryland over the next couple of days, which is going to play merry hell with my weekend plans. But that’s all right; I figure that tomorrow there will be pancakes.
Stay safe, folks. That means, STAY OFF OF THE ROADS.
…but this snow AT-AT that they found is the bomb.
…Do they still say that things are ‘the bomb’? I don’t have cable.
Not snow!
[I had a photo for this, but… well. See next post.]
The news is so bad that I’m afraid to check it: Jim Geraghty notes – idly! With very little visible dread! – in his Daily Jolt that we might be seeing snow for Christmas down here in MD/DC.
God help us – more accurately, God help me, because I have to deal with everybody else in the area. Three flakes of FALLING FROZEN SKY-WATER OF DOOM!!!!! and everybody freaks out. Seriously: last week we got… maybe half an inch of snow. Not enough to completely cover the grass, which is my usual rule of thumb for serious snow. In NJ that’s a slight treat for kids – they can get some snowball time in – but otherwise not worth mentioning. In MD that’s an excuse for a two hour school delayed opening the next day.
It’s bad when a guy from coastal NJ can mock an area for its snow savvy…
Another foot and a half tomorrow. Two things.
…off of the car. Well, not currently; but it is not going swiftly, mostly because there is no good place to put all the loose globalwarming to the side that isn’t already being occupied by another car. This would be an excellent time for me to acquire superpowers centered around either water or fire; unfortunately, there are no radioactive ice weasels handy and I don’t know where to find the Hidden Portal of Flame.
In other words: erratic posting today.
