I'll bet the golfers are ticked off- the ball will just slip off due to the ice.

I don't remember naming any political party or office holder, Tom. This is about "science"...or something like that. :wink:

Slippery slope, but then I've got a couple other boards to occupy my on-line time when this one closes down... :wink:
Really? Difference of opinion. I'll drop it now outta respect to G but stand by my post. Nothing wrong with it. Have fun over on rockettland board. :-D

Yeah...f**k me...power goes out on Monday at 2 am and stays out until Wednesday at 6 pm only to go out again at 9 am today. Consumers Power claims they took us offline because they need to do further repairs to our grid but I don't believe them...not for one minute...

That sucks Flip. And with another major storm set to hit tonight/tomorrow, that's not gonna help.

I'm so sick of this bullshit...

Just talked with my parents in BG. They said they got 7 inches this morning and BGSU is closed until at least noon. Was supposed to reevaluate at 10am. My cousin in Lima got 10inches. I think that groundhog was wrong with his prediction!

Haven't been outside yet but from my window it looks pretty ridiculous out there.
I was supposed to sub at Fostoria HS this morning and got 5 texts at about 5:20AM from WTOL giving me the school closings. That was nice to be able to sleep until 9:30 instead of just 6:30.

BGSU did cancel classes for the rest of the day.

And I agree.... that groundhog gave us hope and Mother Nature destroyed it...

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

It was pretty brutal earlier this morning, but I shoveled the driveway and made it to work a little after noon. If my driveway is any indication it was small change compared to the level 3 a few weeks ago. The roads coming in really weren't that bad at all. Should be pretty clean by the time we head home this evening.

What a bunch of wusses. I left home in BG around 7:15 and was at my desk working in Findlay by 8:10. Wasn't bad at all. And my kids better have the driveway and sidewalks shoveled by the time I get home.
