This is how NY does football...

This is the Bills/Colts game from yesterday.
The Colts aren't use to this sort of thing...
They were hilarious when they were interviewed.



You can't see ANY of the lines.
...and still...70,000 lunatics showed up to watch.
I was not one of them.
Nor would I be...

Not that I can even get out of my driveway at the moment.
My son, some random guy and his kid shoveled my driveway three times yesterday.

Looking out the kitchen window, it looks like another foot of snow fell.
AND IT'S STILL SNOWING!

According to this:
www.WHEC.com - Snowstorm blankets area
It looks like just under 3' of snow fell in total.
AND IT'S STILL SNOWING!

My poor daughter...
The bus was 15 minutes late.
It's 14 degrees out.
And yes, this is NY, of course she has school.

Her girlfriend's house is across the street from the bus stop. My kids have LONG AGO given up bothering to check if school is ever going to be closed in winter. The boy graduated, but the girl doesn't even get her hopes up enough to turn on the tv to hear the news.

So I get this phone call from her asking me to check if school is closed. We both know it won't be, but she asks me to check anyway because the bus is 15 minutes late.

While we're on the phone, the bus passes her friend's house; which they, of course, miss. All she could do was laugh.

She's safe and sound in her Physics class right now - thawing.
New York.
Gotta love it.
