I am lucky when we get a good amount of snow. My next door neighbor noticed I had disabled vet plates and snow blows our yard. He drinks Lord Calvert, pretty easy for me

Despite the predictions, my town got less than 1-32nd of an inch of snow.

There was more snow on my driveway than Elizabeth Warren has Indian blood in her.

This all boils down to snowmageddon hysteria when all we need is a little more practice driving in the snow.

Around here nowadays, you have to be careful who you compliment Sage... you risk getting a negative point or two.

Still, thanks alot. And I don't care who I am either.

If anyone needs any practice it is the meteorologists.

Spoken like a true Philadelphian.

Thanks for your support. Did I ever tell you I've driven over I don't know how many million miles starting when I was eleven years old?

It comes down to fear of driving in the snow.

Stay home if you can't do it.

The last time I drove in the snow was in all places South Carolina.We moved to Florida in October 2017 and I had to go back to my native Massachusetts for the final stage of a three part medical procedure in late December.We drove there from the Sunshine State and on the way back South Carolina had a freak snowstorm,the worst since 1948.On a 1-10 scale,it was a 4-5 from my experience driving but Billy Bob thought big pick up means you can drive fast.The big shock was the number of tractor trailers that had jacknifed;there must have been 8 or 9 we saw and I-95 was a crawl until the Georgia border.I'd say it was 8 hours to go about 90 miles.We needed to use the facilities so we got off the highway near Hilton Head, called Bluffton.Well EVERYTHING was closed when there was maybe an inch of snow on the ground.I ended up grabbing a soda cup and relieving ourselves in the empty parking lot of a Burger King.Good times.
