4. Last two years we got clobbered.

This year it's been staying in the Midwest.

2. It Will Hit Us, Before It Hits You.

Not to worry, the Falcs and the Patriots are already in Pennsylvania.

Look for Belichick to stop the run and make Rothlisberger pass to beat them. Both games are going to be great. And the snow just adds to the luster.

3. On my way to the supermarket in a little while.

Gotta get me some provisions. Got the snow blower gassed up and at the front of the garage. I'm all set.

7. We're expecting 4-12" in Pittsburgh (reports vary)

The grocery store was utter CHAOS. I waited in the checkout line for 20 minutes (not bad, considering that the lines were approximately 200 people long!) There were NO carts when I entered the store; I had to go out and importune a leaving customer for one.

I'm supposed to attend a bar prep class tomorrow morning at 8:30, but if it's snowing when I get up (as it's supposed to be), I'm skipping it. I can review Crim Law later - it's not worth killing myself over.

5. A friend has tickets

but isn't going because it will be too ugly cold. I don't want them either I'm not leaving the house till it melts.

I hate it when it snows like this here. It's pretty in Tahoe but in the Philly Burbs it's just a mess.

Of course the local Super Fresh (Boothwyn) is jammed and the bread and milk is gone already.

6. Gonna hit us in NJ, too. And funny 'bout that French Toast thing…

…I woke UP this morning thinking about French Toast. When I got downstairs, I decided that tomorrow would be better for it and had oatmeal instead. That was before I knew the blizzard was comin'.

So I have that French Toast to look forward to as I watch the flakes fly by…

8. Upstate NY

is going to get brushed with it too, however, they say by the time they add Lake Effect snow from Lake Ontario we will probably get about 14'' to 16". It is already -5 here and it is only going lower. The winds are supposed to pick up too. Lovely isn't it?

Stay safe everyone.

9. What the heck is ass snow?

Here in Minnesota, we just get the regular white kind of snow. If you are getting ass snow, it's probably because of what you did to my Vikings... Have to say, though, I've not seen the guff from Philly that other cities are putting out when their team advances, so, Thank you for that!!! you still deserve ass snow though... :P
