BigAls87Z28 02-01-2008 01:28 PM

Outside my gf's apartment, there is a good 200ft lake that once was a parking lot.
I hate rain...hate it with a passion.

Only if you like snow. Otherwise, it's lake effect snow FTL. :D

We had ice. Thought I might get away with an emergency personal day as I live at the bottom of the hill on a dead end street. By noon, the town plow had pushed two inches of slush off the street so I went out to the driveway and did the same. It was all ice earlier in the morning, but once the temperature got a little higher it was just sloppy.

One of our co-workers actually slipped on some ice from the side of the road, and his head literally bounced off the pavement. Unconsious for about a half minute and he was taken by ambulance to the hospital.

It was quite fun trying to jump on and off a garbage truck today :lol:

Iroc-z86 02-01-2008 06:56 PM

lost power over here at 345 for about 2 hours. there were power lines down on rt 10 in randolph and lucky me had to get my jeep at the dealer so it took me an hour and half to get from dover to hopatcong...fun.
