Digging Out of the Snow in New England

And this is the first thing I find?

Can you imagine the horror of finding them?

"Ice storm devastation claims fourth victim

The devastating ice storm and its lingering aftermath have claimed a fourth life in New Hampshire. Police in Salem say Alexander Conca, 77, was found dead in his home Tuesday evening, apparently overcome by carbon monoxide fumes from a malfunctioning furnace. Power had been restored to the area earlier in the day, and neighbors reported hearing a small explosion in the evening. Police say there was a problem with the boiler when it turned back on (AP)."

Grab a shovel, readers, because I need all the help I can get. My groaning back is feeling all of the 12 inches that fell here during the one-storm, three-day event. That's an ON-the-GROUND report, folks, and I DON'T LIE!

"Snow brings more misery for some; Four communities without power want heat and answers" by Maria Cramer and Milton J. Valencia, Globe Staff | December 22, 2008

Yeah, only misery for "some!" They just never stop with their sunny-shit fart-mist, and it bothers me worse than the gays, globalists, and Zionists right now! It's the WEATHER!!! Quit LYING about it!!!

FITCHBURG - .... Yesterday's storm, the second in three days, walloped the state with powerful winds and freezing temperatures, trying the patience of shoppers, drivers, and holiday travelers already weary of the snow and cold, and canceling school in Boston - and in dozens of other communities - today and tomorrow.

It was ONE LONG STORM, ding-dongs!!! And they never weary of promoting the corporate business profits, do they? I'll bet the KIDS are HAPPY anyway!

But for the people of Central Massachusetts, the storm was another grueling test of their Yankee grit....

Oh, for crying out loud! Yeah, we are FREEZING OUT HERE, but just GRIT IT OUT says the elite Bostonian! It's the farts that keep me warm, and they want to tax me!

Temperatures were likely to plunge to a low of 17 degrees. Gould said the morning winds would gust to a high of 46 miles an hour in Boston, and wind chills were expected to drop below zero in the morning. But things should warm up over the next few days.

They are UN-FRIKKIN'-BELIEVABLE!!!!

I'll BELIEVE it went my dick don't freeze in the mornings!

Gould said the temperatures would reach a high of 29 today, 30 tomorrow, and nearly 50 on Wednesday, Christmas Eve....

Oh, it's going to be 50 here on Xmas Eve, huh? Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!

In Taunton, religious leaders canceled a menorah-lighting ceremony; and churches throughout the region canceled or delayed services. In Foxborough, most fans left Gillette Stadium at half-time, when it became clear the Patriots were going to trounce the Arizona Cardinals.

Need I even say it?

At malls, crowds were small, with only the more desperate shoppers scurrying for gifts the last weekend before Christmas. "I'm usually a last-minute shopper," said Matt Soares of Whitinsville, who was at the Natick Collection.

Scott Willhaus of Somerville said the weather motivated him to shop. "I'm Christmas's biggest fan and the weather these past few days has put me in a festive mood," he said, walking through CambridgeSide Galleria.

The MSM is SHAMELESS! Why don't they just call themselves advertising pimps for corporations?

But for those in Central Massachusetts, there has been little holiday cheer.

"It doesn't feel like Christmas here," said David Rainville, the Ashby deputy director. Rainville has a generator powering his house, but he has not turned on his Christmas lights out of respect for neighbors without light and heat. "I don't want to slap it in their faces," Rainville said. "I don't want to give anyone else hard feelings."

No, you don't, and no, it doesn't!

Oh, about that WARMING TREND coming!

"Storms batter northern half of nation as winter makes debut" by Amy Lorentzen, Associated Press | December 22, 2008

Yeah, it "debuted" about a WEEK EARLY, you shits!

DES MOINES - Weekend storms in the nation's northern half knocked out power to thousands of customers yesterday and created nightmarish conditions for holiday travelers coast to coast on the first official day of winter.

Wind chills dipped to minus 30 or lower in the Midwest, and high winds produced whiteout conditions that contributed to at least two vehicle pileups, in Wisconsin and Michigan.

Parts of Iowa and Illinois were under blizzard warnings. Power was knocked out to more than 35,000 customers yesterday in Illinois shortly after being restored to most who had lost it after a storm last week, utilities said....

More than 70,000 homes and businesses in Indiana remained in the dark after an ice storm that struck Thursday. Wind gusts topping 30 miles per hour hindered repair work, officials said. Wind gusts up to 35 miles per hour blew snow and contributed to a crash involving at least 30 vehicles yesterday in southwestern Michigan on Interstate 94, a major route between Chicago and Detroit, officials said....

More than 20 vehicles were involved in a pileup yesterday on Interstate 43 in Wisconsin's Ozaukee County that briefly shut down southbound lanes.... Even hardy Minnesotans buckled to the cold, calling off a Minneapolis holiday parade yesterday that is automatically canceled if the wind chill dips below minus 20....

Then THIS is SERIOUS and the fart-misters should shut up!
