RATS do know how to ban stuff. Has anyone seen Algore lately?

I think its amusing how the national media has been talking so much about this storm.

Yes its a huge storm. But I’ve been in equally bad storms in other parts of the country, which do not attract any attention from the national media.

Just saying, something which happens on the New York/Washington media axis, is magnified in news reports because of it happening where the media are headquartered.

The sky in Manhattan looks dark grey from newscast

WHAT TIME DOES THE EVACUATION OF THE WHITE HOUSE START?

Lib gov’ner doesn’t think that people have common sense until he pontificates for them not to travel. Well gosh, if he didn’t say it imagine how many people would be out there driving.

I hope this blizzard buries the entire East Coast (Washington, DC to Maine) for the next three weeks! About 20 feet of snow ought to do it coupled with -40 degrees below zero temperatures.

Looks like Times Square is shoveled.

Which brings us to the Mexican phrase of the day: “Wind Chill”.

Example: “My lady caught me cheating so she threw a brick through my wind chill.”

When does the looting start?

My guess is a good number of Amish will be out in Charm City and Gotham "liberating" local stores of their wares as soon as the snow is too deep for police cruisers to move.

Who is this douche who thinks he can issue a ban on travel??? If I want to go somewhere, I'll go. And I challenge him to show any legal right to restrict my right to do so.

The presumption of these tin-horn dictators!

A couple of weeks ago the eco-nuts were saying all that warm weather on the east coast was caused by AGW/Climate Change. Now they are say this cold and snow was caused by it, too!

[Jim Noble]

It’s January in the Northeast.

It’s snowing.

In other news, a bear was seen sh*tting in the woods..,,

[soycd]

Yeah, it sucks here in the mountains of WV when your plow is broken and the tractor won’t start.

I’m on plan C which involves a string of hay bales loaded with kerosene down the driveway. I’m one match away from plowing this driveway with energy.

Now THIS was a blizzard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fL7eXnIqUV4

I remember it clearly living in Western NY as a senior in High School with a part time job that I walked to.

I had to shut Government CUUMO off because he kept running at the mouth; obviously has it bad for the sound of his own voice.

And On that blurb, notice 2nd worst prez Carter saying “crisis” over and over and over again.
