The snow is gonna chase Beth back south. ;-)

So, it's finally really winter here.... storm coming in this evening that's supposed to drop about 2 feet of snow on us before tomorrow night. This will be pandoraculpa's first official "sweet jesus, that's alot of snow, what the HELL am I doing in Buffalo?" snowstorm. And, I'm assuming, it will be the most snow that her daughter Kate has ever EVER seen.

Snowing here too, but we're just getting a couple of inches to cap off the two feet on the ground already. Better today than tomorrow when I have tickets to take my kid to the Nutcracker downtown.

Why do they need bleach? During a snowstorm? Is it so they can do laundry while they're trapped inside? I am baffled.

[buffalobeeotch]

Yeah, we already have a few inches on the ground too (just to give the upcoming couple of feet a nice, cushioned landing).

And as for the bleach.... my friend in Richmond laughs about how everyone there rushes the grocery and buys up all the bread, milk and bleach whenever there's a slight threat of snow. Apparently, the bleach is used to "purify water if needed." Because, you know, we are often thrown into apocalyptic-like conditions during a snowstorm which would warrant the use of bleaching our drinking water to survive.
Crazy southerners. ;-) I mean really... have they not heard of beer?

Enjoy the Nutcracker! I haven't been to see that one since I was a kid!

Bleach. Because clearly, melted snow would just not be pure enough to drink.

I can't believe I'm from there. I mean, I've got more sense than all that.

(But I've also got bread and milk. That shit at least makes sense. And the alcohol... oh, we'll have alcohol!)

dude, haven't you heard of pollution? and yellow snow? NOT pure enough to drink. you'd be the first one to die when we get that megastorm.
