yes, she did. of course…

Is Adam actually doing any work on that laptop? Or is he still tapping out musical themes??

The Drama Queen returns!

“The Tourniquet That Ate Cleveland” by Adam and Katwurst Newman.

I can honestly say that I wouldn’t be panicking if a 97 inch snowfall were predicted for Colorado.

Mostly because I live in Massachusettes.

Been spitting snow here, no accumulation though..

C’mon Katy. Everyone knows that it’s bread and milk you have to hoard. And TP.

Snowmageddon starts tomorrow. It won’t be as bad as the last blizzquake.

What Katy doesn’t realize is that the news station changed over to metric.

They predicted 97 mm.

Really, in these days of streaming all you need to make sure you have stocked is popcorn and hot chocolate. Thankfully the days of rushing Blockbuster for emergency movies are gone.

They said a dusting to an inch last night, but I don’t see any. Tomorrow 4-7 inches in the forec. Yuck.

Remember, when you run out of food, eat the youngest first

OK, what did she do to Clayton?

Three cases of turkey necks ought to do…

yes time to run to the grocery store and by Milk, Bread , and Cheese (Eggs are just to expensive)

Katy has a future with the National Weather Service…

Why a tourniquet, Katy?

Nucle-ar Wessels!

yea, Tourniquets wear out often

Katy is getting spit ends.

Now remember what happened to the Donner party.

Leave the tourniquet, bring the muzzle.

I hope Adam doesn’t experience the Shining.

This is why I try and keep a gallon of tequila on hand for emergencies and I live in sunny California.

In Columbus we called it White Death. Had to tell the new co-worker from SE Pennsylvania the difference between “white death” and the dusting of snow we were going to get …. poptarts and beer …..

This is why everyone should have a BOB (Bug Out Bag). And your home should be equipped with a well stocked pantry, and easily accessible camping gear like a Colman stove and such if you are snowed in and your stove is not working. Lots of info out there if you just look.

What does she have planned for the tourniquets?

That would be nearly a world record for single-day snowfall.

Ninety-seven inches??? That’s almost rounded off to three yards… That snow fall would reach almost past the first story of a house… Yikes!!! But seriously, yes, this winter there were such snowfalls with drifts against doors and windows. People anticipated them and they brought in their snow shovels and dug tunnels to the main sidewalk. In the Buffalo they called it Lake Effect snowfall—it is all because the lakes do not freeze early any more, and those large snowfalls with such drifts are very common nowadays.

Foreseeing a lot of amputations with the coming blizzard?

A hand stuffed into the snowblower could require one.

But what is it on the French Toast scale?

MY husband is actually like Katie! Even when we had a deli – literally ACROSS THE STREET – he panics about snow and starving to death – same with hurricanes (but he panics about same then).

First announcement of a weather problem POSSIBLY coming -All cell phones (even old ones) have to be plugged in all the time we are home. All laptop computers (even old ones) have to be plugged in all the time we are home.All walkways within the house have to be clear for walking so they can be walked in the dark.Refrig and freezer turned to colder than usual. Extra bread bought. All laundry washed and dried (which is done weekly normally, so there is always at least one week’s spare clothing in the house anyway). TV’s kept tuned to local weather so can know what is going on (even though they are generally wrong).

We have each lived on this Island since we were born. By now I would figure he should be used to this and not panic and be sure that we will die.
