Buy Bread and Milk, Mabel!


Winter weather may finally come to the sunny south!

Which of course means later this week we'se and us'es will be the laughing stock of the nation. For we will frantically storm the supermarkets buying bread, milk and various potent potables. We will rush home and listen to the old media gaggle breathlessly report on STORM WATCH '07! Some of us will stupidly try to drive in this unfamiliar environment and play bumpers cars all over the interstate. And of course Waffle House will remain open giving Neal Boortz another opportunity to chastise the rest of us for being lazy and stupid.

Just remember this you damned Yankees! In August when it's 110 degress and you are all flopping around like fishes on the beach for lack of that modern invention called conditioned air, we will all be galavantin' around drunk, laughing, half-naked and worshiping the sun god!

It sounds from the NWS alert like any ice or sleet will only be north of Atlanta, and even then they are saying it's unlikely to accumulate other than on bridges and overpasses.

In related news, I get to drive to the mountains on Thursday morning right as this winter weather is going on. Luckily I actually have an idea of how to drive in this stuff.

Oh please. As if the Yankees don't have air conditioning. We have the best (or worst) of both worlds. The ability to drive in the white crap that falls from the sky, and to stay cool in the heat and humidity of good ol' summertime. And bitch during the one season that we can't wait for the other.
