"When the forecast calls for an inch of snow, you run out with all the other crazies to stand in line for three hours to buy a month's worth of groceries. "

Donno about that being strictly from Arkansas, as milk and bread disappear from the supermarket shelves as soon as a weather reporter reports that there's going to be snow, no matter what the accumulation, here in NYC.

Well they are calling for snow tonight and tomorrow morning, I went to drop the kid offat daycare this morning and everyone and thier puppy dog was at the grocery store buying milk and bread.

But I have no idea why people do it this when you know good and well they have enough food in their pantry to last a month. And how would milk and bread help us in a snowstorm??? I have enough canned food in my pantry that would make the soup kitchen do cartwheels and thats just accumulation over the months. I buy some spaghettios and other soups, the kid runs out of spaghettios and so I go out and buy more. and the other soups get pushed to the back.

The only reason Im picking up the kid early from day care today is to get back to the house before people start getting stupid and we know that stupid causes accidents. I also noticed the ambulance crews putting chains on their tires incase the roads turn to ice/snow.

But tomorrow should be fun as everything will be shut down, so me and the kid will likely spend some time outside playing in the snow- if theres enough to play in.

I'll be sure to take pics of the Arkansas snowfall for you guys.

"Fixin'" has nothing to do with repairs.
