Stuck at Work

I work in a town that is about a 30 minute drive from the town I live in. I left for work this morning and the roads were all nice and clear, by the time I got to work, visibility was almost nil. Now, every road out of town is closed Hopefully things clear up soon.

Lol reminds me of hurricane sandy. Almost every road (including the one to my Job/grocery store/ etc was closed off. My advice? A GPS, a decent knowledge of local roads, and some aggression will take you far.

The snow belt can really get dumped on when the wind comes off Lake Huron and the temps are just right...
Stay safe if you go out... what are you driving? Decent snow vehicle?

I made it home, one road opened and it wasn't too bad of a drive. I drive a 2002 Mazda Protege with really good winter tires.

Believe it or not that's America. They don't even have White Castles round Russia. Those spinner thing's always amused me. Especially at stop sign's when they still spinning around, look's like the car's still going even though it's stopped.

Well, looks like I am stuck at home now. The roads re-closed over night. I'm not going to complain about a three day weekend.

Lol well, it's been under a year, before was an Oldsmobile intrigue. But yes if i shaved my head id probably look reminisce of him in fact.

Lol see tho, they cars pimp material. It even had a tent attachment. Perfect mini camper. So I'd want to do it justice.

Stuck at work? Could have been much worse. You could have been one of the poor souls that was involved in this mess south of Detroit yesterday:

Over 50 vehicles, 3 or 4 fatalities. Anyone that wanted to go south out of Detroit yesterday was royally screwed until late evening.

If you can trap a fart in a tent and believe its potent, that probably serves as a good measurement of warning
