Snow (Ice) day
« on: January 17, 2007, 01:58:34 PM »
Well in my area it's completely icy everywhere, on the trees, the streets, and even in my freezer  :o. Hehe, I got up this morning, got ready, and then when I got outside my car was all ice to the ground because the previous day it rained so there's icicles from my car to the ground and my tires looked like they were elmo glued to the street. So then I knew I was going to be late for school for sure so I call a friend who I know puts his car in the garage, "Hey, can you give me a ride to school today? my car is basically glued to the street."
"What the !@#$ are you calling me so early for, it's a !@#$ing snow day!" "oh... :-\....  :).... :D.... ;D...!" NO CHEMISTRY TEST WooHOO!

So now I'm on the computer telling you about a 'snow day' in Texas. Oxymoron yes :D...

You're in Texas, and you get  an ice day. Meanwhile, I'm here in Massachusetts and until today it's been as though it were spring. Certainly, hardly a flake of snow to be seen, and not a day off.

It must be a sign of the Apocalypse  :P

And some git's just pulled the fire alarm, causing everyone to have to wait out in the cold (but snowless) outside.  One kid collapsed from hypothermia.

I don't get "snow days", but I was mostly trapped at home from last Friday after work through Monday.  The streets were a skating rink!  The residential streets are STILL terrible, but I have managed to get from my house to the main streets without hitting anything the last two days.

It's supposed to get above freezing soon, so I hope that will melt some of that stuff off the roads.

Snow day? It is that sort of attitude that lost America it's empire. When I was a lad we used to struggle to school through blizzards and hail and floods and plagues of gnats. And then they made us sit in classrooms so cold the ink froze in the inkwells.

Young people today? They don't know they are born!

Music is the key to the heart.

"Once art to me was something far off, unfathomable and unreachable... But I discovered that the real essence of art was not something high up and far off, it was right inside my ordinary daily self. If a musician wants to be a fine artist, he must first become a finer person. A work of art is the expression of a person's whole personality, sensibility, and ability." -Shinichi Suzuki
