    This sounds pretty fun for sure.

    Throw in a shitty ice scraper and you are fooked.

    Still no fucking power. Staying with various friends and family. Now starting to worry about pipes freezing. Left some faucets open a little. This is far from over. :fp:

    Ice storms suck. Had to deal with a really bad one in western NY in '76. Being a California native it was weird watching purple flashes as transformers went down around the neighborhood, living in a freezing house with no power, seeing huge elm fall on to and crush a neighbor's garage, seeing all the houses along Lake Erie covered with muddy lake spray turning them all into gingerbread houses and falling on my ass every time I walked out the front door.

    We got snowed/iced in here at home for a few day and people all around here were complaining and I told the, "This ain't nothin'!"

    Hang in there- hope things turn around soon!

    Shitty.

    Goes to show you how brutal it would be if everything just stopped. Imagine if everyone was forced to deal with each day as nature had intended for us?

    I read an interesting piece where the writer projected into the future describing big cities as wastelands and highways as scary things.

    It does make you appreciate the simple things in life. Hopefully, the power will be restored by Sunday. We've been staying with friends and family. It's nice to have people reach out to you! Sometimes a little overwhelming. :D

    ...when drivers do not pull over to the side of the road when emergency vehicles, with lights flashing and sirens wailing, are coming up the road. Dumbasses.
