January 18th is going to be a very long day.

First, the massive online protest of SOPA (the Stop Online Piracy Act) will cause the internet to go black. Reddit will be down, Wikipedia will be down, the entire I Can Haz Cheeseburger empire will be down, and more websites and companies are joining the cause every hour.

No big deal. We'll do what we did before the internet! We'll go hang out with friends and see movies and have dinner and drinks at local restaurants and act like civilized people who aren't addicted to their computers.

BUT WAIT! We're going to get 6-14 inches of snow tomorrow? We'll all be stranded! SOPA shuts down the internet, SNOW shuts down our real lives.

What are we supposed to do with ourselves!?
