last night was our biggest pi party to date and I think we had a couple dozen friends over.

So they've been promising 30-45 cm snow for today - and fierce winds - and on top of that, I caught something from Mrs. Wife and have been sicker than a VB6 user.
But the storm moved a wee bit to the left and up a bit - and now it looks like 15 cm will be it (for my location) A bit further inland they're be screwed as advertised. They're also calling for our local temp to reach about 3 C (Thank you Mr Ocean!).
I'll/We'll be able to dig our way out, even with the headaches and shyte.
What strange creatures we are - taking pleasure in the concept of "It could have been worse".

My mother-in-law was scheduled to fly from Abany, NY to Jersey to Charlotte today... she was given the option a few days ago to change her flight day and arrived last night.
All things considered, I'm glad she can spend time with her granddaughter.

Our collective mother-in-law[^] wanted to pay Donnie Trump a visit, but that has now been postponed because of the storm.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I *am* a VB6 user (no longer for choice) and I feel offended nah I'm actually pretty sick. Sick of VB6 and very, very sick.

Oh. So maybe you won't have such a great celebratory party when it doesn't happen.

I definetely prefer if it doesn't happen - furniture costs a lot and it's all fairly new. Plus my costly new computer - which alone costs as much as my whole kitchen furniture + appliances.

I feel your pain. I've just recovered from a nasty little bug and it's not that long ago that I was having to do some work with VB3 (I kid you not - but it was Ok because we were upgrading the software to .... VB6  )

Sounds like snowboarding is out 
Ah, I see you have the machine that goes ping. This is my favorite. You see we lease it back from the company we sold it to and that way it comes under the monthly current budget and not the capital account.

We're expecting 6-12 inches but ..., Since yesterday, I've been jokingly telling my friend that a fake news.

I just heard our local weatherman claim this deserved to be called the snowstorm of the century.
Just like the 3 other ones he described in the same way last winter.

That's why I've taken to checking out the NWS for my weather. Particularly for extreme weather.
No emotion. No need for ratings. No opinions - just probabilities.*
Then, too - why not hype it? Everyone seems to go and buy out the supermarkets whenever the sky determines it's time to phart. There has never been a food shortage that I can remember - except for Sandy - and that wasn't a real shortage since you couldn't stay in your home, anyway (and the food they bought was ruined).
Must be a need for millennials: they don't have good movies, music, or, with their face glued to their phone, a life. I guess they need something to be proud of.
