not snowed under yet

 

1. Yeah I read where (Nanny) Gov Cuomo urged people to stay home today. What a schmuck.

   Decades ago - I was caught traveling from Stuttgart WG to Bad Kissingen WG - had to get home, hubby was leaving so kids needed me. On the autobahn (remember NO speed limit back then) - could not see the lines on the road, the snow was so heavy - just followed the red car lights ahead of me - praying the entire time, he/she stayed on the highway.

   Also traveled from Detroit MI to Rochester NY to Lawton OK - during that horrid winter of 1982 - when most places it was not only snowing - but waaaay below zero (like -53 in Detroit) - had to get off almost every other exit - just to clean the frozen stuff off the windshield. Even slept in the car (on the NY to OK leg of the trip).

   These moroons who have no morals, are corrupt at best - telling other people how to live their lives and what to do - disgust me.

   Although most people are too stupid to know - that all this nanny ‘do something’ to ‘save’ a life - is to get everyone (not them) into 300 sq feet and using the bus/subway/metro.

2. I’ve driven the long empty unplowed dark highway from Rochester NY. In a borrowed car packed with 8 or 10 college kids, all I had was the tire tracks in 8” of snow to follow for more than 150 miles to Syracuse and then down to Binghamton. But once in the ruts, the car was almost on autopilot. It was hypnotic, but something I never ever want to do again.

3. Speaking of fixing things, I finally ,after 25 years have a doorbell for my customers to buzz me with. What made this all possible after a quarter century of procrastination you ask?
   Simple, they now have remote control buttons for doorbells so no wires needed,Just a few batteries. And whalla, The peeps who buy my stuff can waken me from an afternoon slumber anytime they want.
   Hmm, hope they dont just push the damn thing to see if its real.
   Oh, Well, Done & Done.

5. And it turned out to be a normal winter shower. Not an event(OMG!!!11), not “the storm from Hell”, just ... winter in Yankeeland. *SIGH* Along with a new level of nanny state control.

6. Their little computer games… I mean models can’t even model yesterday’s weather right. Or a 24hr forecast? But I’m supposed to believe their computer games about globull warming, or climate change, or whatever the name-of-the-week is? Bonus! If I don’t believe I’m a ‘climate denier’ and they want to behead me just like that ‘religion of peace’.
