A buddy of mine is in NY right now, barricaded somewhere in Harlem. He says that back at home it'd be just a regular storm, nothing to write home about.  :mellow:
It is a typical winter storm up here. Just a whole heck lot more people being affected because of it's location.

He is a filthy liar.

Yeah, I guess he's just trying to BS me to the highest degree, either that or out of coincidence it's being mild in the exact spot where he is.

Still going strong here.

You should be OK, since you're in base housing;  there's 4 substations redundantly feeding that fucker, 3 owned by NSA and 1 owned by the US Army.  It would really take something to fuck up 4 subs, you should be OK through the whole thing.

I dunno...I know our power here in base housing is provided/maintained by BGE.  I kept hearing all the time when I moved here, how power goes out at the drop of a hat.  No problems so far, though.

You have to refresh it, it doesn't refresh itself.

4 story building front collapsed in NY.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I hope Carrot is ok... he's directly in the path of the storm too (though a bit inland).

I'm sure he built a shelter with his vast knowledge of everything.

Does that mean he's drinking?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

So I'm watching coverage on WPVI-6 Philadelphia and they cut back to the evening news anchor.

It's the same guy who was the evening news anchor when I was a kid in like, 1980.

...AND HE STILL LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME.
