It would have to come on the weekend I need to move.

What, you didn't see this already? I'mm assuming local news has been having shitfits over it, sending poor Jim Foreman hither and yon looking for the first flakes.

One of the top-10 most annoying things about Seattle: the local news when it snows.

I'm hunkering down in anticipation of Blizzard'08. Stocked up on Starbucks muffins in case they're closed for a few days, and a big bottle of Maker's Mark. I could have bought chains and diapers for the baby, but what kind of bother?

I hate snow.

Isn't it kind of hard to snow with those high temperatures?

Where is John Bailo or Lord Basil? This thread needs a "How 'bout that global warming, now" joke...

wax the boards, baby.

Ten more days till I'm surfing in Santa Barbara - let it snow!

Chains for your baby? That's hardcore.

Posted by rlv on December 11, 2008 at 1:47 PM

That's it. I'm moving to Tucson.

It might snow, it might not, but it certainly won't stick.

Great...now the city is going to shut down because of a threat of snow.

@3:

Just FYI, there is no "e" in "Forman"...

Nice excuse to drink wine and huddle by the, erm, electric heater. Yeah.

One of my colleagues is worried all the kids she invited to her son's birthday won't show up if it snows.

Posted by Will in Seattle on December 11, 2008 at 2:59 PM

Damn I thought it was a post about where to get high-quality coke in Seattle.

I thought we had this talk already. Don't do blow.

A friend is supposed to take me to Memo's Mexican Kitchen (my first time) Saturday at 1pm. I hope the snow holds off until I get back to the home. It would suck Major League to be stuck in the snow, in a motorized wheelchair, waiting for a Metro bus that may never show up to take me back to Shoreline.
