Snowmageddon 2011

Well, it's here.  Snowmageddon 2011.  The local weather wonks have been salivating over this impending storm for the last couple of days.  Most of the weather people have now run out of dramatic superlatives to describe this storm.

If they wanted to freak out the city, they've done it.  The stunningly patient and mighty fine SML and I went to the grocery store last night to pick up some things and what we encountered was unbelievable!  The aisles of the store were jammed and people were acting as if they were under evacuation orders.  And the avaricious store management had posted signs throughout the store, with sayings like, "Blizzard Warning!  Do you have what you need?"  Curiously, these signs were placed over many of their most expensive items.  Nice.

So suffice to say, it's madness here.  Good times.
