On the course!
For the first time in my life, I couldn't get into work due to the weather.

I was making my way up Hwy 41, and I saw Troopers had the road closed off up ahead. I didn't know if it was due to an accident, but I knew I had to take the "lake road", and that would be tough sledding.

Sure as shit, drifts everywhere. I made it about half way before some knotheads were stuck in the midde of the highway in their teenie cars. Every side road had the same tale. Cars with hazard lights on.

I finally turned around, saying, "Screw this!"

Not worth being one of these poor SOBs.

Kind of a shitty way to burn holliday time, but oh well!

My paper wasn't even delivered today. This much snow makes routine things difficult... probably have 18" on the ground as it goes up just below my knee.

Yesterday coming home from work was a war zone. Seems like every other car was stuck or stalled.

Destructor D, I am heading to KC on Friday, and was wondering if you could suggest a good BBQ place. We will be staying at Harrah's, and will have a car to get around. There are too many to chose from, so I was hoping to get a local's opinion.
Also, is Jess & Jim's a good place for steaks?
Thank you, sir.
