I just watched the last Balmoral race. How much snow fell in the "Second City?"
between 4 and 9 inches from what I hear on the news. I am about 2 miles from Arlington and I have about 6 inches in my front yard. Was kinda sneaky and early this year, it sucked shoveling, that is for sure. I went out at 11:30pm last night and there was about 2.5 inches and I thought it was done, but woke up today and there was another 4 inches on the ground, pretty hilarious seeing all these people drive in the snow, it is like the world is about to end

Two miles form Arlington? Nice neighborhood!
There was a dusting about a week ago and there were three accidents on Rand Road between 53 and Dundee. Luckily this snow fell mostly while people were sleeping but people park all nuts or freak out. I learned my lesson in this stuff though when I first got my truck and was blazin 4 wheel drive. Almost took out a tree thinking that I was going to stop as fast as I was starting, not the case

I'm a DRF user, and have been for close to 30 years. When I look at the TG Sheets it looks like a Chinese phonebook to me. I've been to their redboard room, know people who use the sheets, but just can't get a handle on how to read them. Maybe one day I will find the patience to understand their numbers and patterns.

Bob, my mother knows about Chez Paree.

You know, when it's time for lunch, it's sometimes best to stop where you happen to be.

You think Scavs would know about a place called Chez Paree? The only thing he knows about Chez anything is Cheeze Whiz.
