[post2089 0]

Just was watching News 12 at 5:30 and they said snow not coming in 8pm or later and only 3-6 or many be a lil more or less depending on how the warm stream tracks in from the south west . Hope fully the news is wrong like most times

the SKED rescue sled works better than a Stokes basket..... And there's always reeves stretchers

I like the reeves idea....but as it looks now, i'm gonna be forced to come in to work, that is, unless one of my oh so nice co-workers decides to take the overtime. Damn I hate being on the bottom of the totem pole

Now they are saying 3-6 inches, that sucks. I want snow I want to make some big OT

[Bababoosky 24]

for the ultimate sledding experience, zip yourself up in a bodybag and go down the hill, thats crazy!

BREAKING NEWS.....

National weather service just said its a hoax.

Sunday will be warm and spring, feel like a Florida in the winter....LOL

[ex-commish 490]

ok at 6 pm everyone go outside, face east and blow hard at the same time so maybe it will go out to sea.

screw the winter,

screw the snow,

its not OT for me and screw putting the chains on the apparatus.
