No with her one leg wasn't shorter than the other. Her left leg was torn off in a terrible car accident and she went by Peg.

Her brother Bill lives in a mailbox of all things.

Well we had 2' of global warming in our driveway, in Chester VA., and this is not supposed to happen here. If it was normal, you can bet I'd have the baddest snowblower that I could find.

don't take offense to this(you just happen to be the last one to respond in kind), but i hate the WNY/CNY snow bravado....growing up in syracuse until 27, moved to richmond for the next 20 years now in philly...i don't give a rats ass nor do i pretend to be better prepared for the snow because i was raised in it...it's not about how well prepared you are, it's how prepared the area you live in is. a foot of snow(hell, 6") is rightfully so, as crippling to Richmond as 36+" is to syracuse because they don't have the means to clear it and make the streets safe, WNY/CNY has the budget to clean snow, i don't want Richmond or Philly spending tax dollars on equipment that is going to sit around idle for 360 days a year. Invariably i see hot shot northerners off the road in the south because they think they can go the speed limit in questionable conditions.

 

People in new jersey B word about the snow...I tell them I come from Buffalo before coming to jersey and they STFU....

i passed a state trooper doing 55+ on NC52, a 4 lane divided highway during the freezing rain/ice/snow Friday. he was doing 25, at the most. i slowed down as i passed the vehicles and went back to 60. i don't pretend to be special at driving in the snow but i have a 4wd vehicle and realize that ice over snowpack is not too awful

 

in nc, 1" of snow, or any ice can shut things down for at least a day. 1" amounts to 1 day of closures. if we get 4-5 inches, you're looking at a week to recover.
