Cold snap

How is everybody coping?

Was on a cruise to Turks and Caicos most of this past week and spending a few days around Miami now.

I am loathing returning to the Midwest.

Cold Snap? We're on one game hot streak!

Eh kept the toddler home from day care, hasn't been too terrible because the wind wasn't as bad as expected I think.

Just set aside a couple of 5 gallon buckets of water for flushing because living in the country means well water which means when the power goes out, the water goes out. We have a gas stove (I know, I know-you don't like them and have seen what happens when gas leaks) that can be lit with a match, so we can cook while we shiver if the power is out for a while.

With thousands of acres of trees around here, the freezing rain will certainly result in power lines down. My guess is no more than 24 hours without power. Our electric co-op is top notch on getting power restored quickly, but they will almost certainly be swamped with outages. The good news? The freezing rain will be on Sunday, so I will see the bball games I want to. I may miss the NFL games though.

I'm a fan.

Tower, but he has his reasons, and I will not argue the point with him. Other than Tower? No one. I hate them!

Me.

I had a ticket to tonight's game.  There has been so much snow in the last week around here that highway speeds are all down around 40.  That would have made it 3.5 hours to the Indiana border, 6 hours overall.  So, no.

The argument can be made, "if someone comes in to look at cars in an -11 degree wind chill, he must be at least somewhat serious."

We have a gentleman here on his third test drive testing that theory.

Cold snap? Haven't experienced one of those in awhile!

It was 77 here today.

I hope everyone is staying safe.

Let's talk again when hurricane season is back. A week of crappy weather beats Hell out of having your house destroyed by 100+ mph winds.

It's 2 in Indy, real feel of -12. And MU's three point shooting was even colder than that.

[Skatastrophy]

If I hear "real feel" one more time I'm gonna start slapping people.
