I make fun of the D.C. area for delaying or closing public school openings when there's even the threat of snow. In general, I whole-heartedly agree with the Prez that the peeps here need to toughen up a bit. People 'round these parts always assume that I'm somehow "used" to the cold, being from up north. Please, no one up north likes the cold. But what I am used to is snow, and a dusting is not snow.
However, today is real -- with like 5 inches on the ground in an area without the budget to deal with proper salting and plowing. Yes, today, the worries are legit. I mean, Alabama is getting snow. HOWEVER, among the thousands of school and church closings running on the local news this morning (why not just say what is open?), there was a notice that the federal government is on a two hour delay:
Federal Government in Washington Area- Federal Agencies will operate with a 2 hour delay as well as unscheduled leave. (Monday)
Hey, Bam-Bam. Follow Kris Allen's lead and look at the Man in the Mirror.
