Snow Storms and What Brats we have become. When the rumors of Global Warming started, Virginia took it seriously and sold all thier snow plows. So the Great Snowstorm of 2009 happened. The Virginians were demanding the Government. Get rid of this snow RIGHT NOW! Dang! They had to import snowplows from New England and find truckers willing drive those 18 Wheelers on the black ice to bring them to Virginia. I was snowbound for four days. I finally made it to work and customers were mad at me. There was no milk. The cows got too cold and couldn't make any. The Texas Grapefruits were not in the store. Those SWIFT truckdrivers were too chicken to drive on icy roads to deliver them. There were no Clementines from California, no Blueberries from Peru and no Cherries from Chili. Folks don't want Universal Medicine but they sure do like Univeral Snow Plows. Those Snow Plows can't get to the Commonweath by Fax. What did Thomas Jefferson do when Virginia had a Snowstorm. He left his horses in the barn and had to eat Vanilla Ice Cream? Maybe he built a fire and cuddled up with Sally Hemming.  Abracadabra  |

the u.k. fares badly when snow falls - we only get a bad one every 20 years or so, so far this year has been the worst for 34 years and the local authorities have faced alot of flak for being ill prepared as usual the authorities have cut back on stuff you cant see like road salt and main drains then they get caught with their pants down typicle pen pushers , hiding behind their filing cabinets your right about the articulated lorries ( 18 wheelers ) they dont go nowhere when it snows as the traction is only on one axle the other is just a weight bearing drag axle ~ only the brave drive em' in the white stuff
