Okay,
It has now been freezing rain here since about 3pm. The trees are starting to droop pretty bad. It can turn back to snow at any time now. This ain't good!! Ohh...and Blkstang06. I figure if we are ever going to meet up I will have to come to see you.

You know the old saying " Snow is like sex.....you never know when you're going to get it or how much your'll get".

If I could I moved to a place where I would never see another snowflake inless in was in my drink.

I think Scott is going to sleep with his new bump sticks to break them tonight.

Time to get ready for work , a 12 hour Midnight shift. I hope I can get home in the morning.

Morning guys,
Well it looks like the weather man was right on about this storm. The snow turned to rain all night long. Now the wind is picking up a bunch. Supposed to get colder with 1-3 inches today.

Ha Ha... I have kinda made a bunch of ground up here lately. If I know you I'd bet your not done yet. I have an advantage this time of the year... "NO KIDS". I hope to finish up Earl brake lines today. Got the rears on and half the fronts. I am really curious how this one man brake bleeding is going to go. We'll see.

Just got home, about 8 to 10" on the ground. Roads are snow covered but passable with my F-150 4x4. Not to bad of night, some of the day shifts just slept over cause they knew they couldn't make it back in this morning. County roads are better than the city streets go figure.

Just like I thought, it was busy last night for me at work. I didn't get out of there until almost midnight, got home at almost 1am. The snow made things much more difficult than normal.

Nope, not quite done yet. I've been talking to Brent about a mod that would be a pretty drastic change to the car right now..... can't decide if I want to go for it or not.

I was sliding around in a 2wd F150 for about 9 hours last night. Even with a bunch of weight added from a nitrogen bottle, 2nd battery, oil containers, and rail-mounted storage box full of stuff, that truck still had bad traction and almost got stuck several times. The company I work for does have a 4x4 F150, but that's another department.

A riddle of sorts for you:

It's easy; it's something you already have; and it appeals to chicks.

I'm a ground service equipment mechanic at O'Hare Airport. I make sure the fuel trucks will run, operate properly, etc. and won't blow up an engine due to lack of oil. I was suprised planes were still able to fly in that stuff last night, very low visibility. Lots of delays though.

Speaking of work, time to get going soon, another 3 to 11 as usual tonight.
