i soooooo wish it was still the 70s

We got just a little bit of snow around here yesterday, but it was enough to make the whole population panic. Irritating to no end. WTF with a little bit of snow and all rationality goes out the window? I was cleaning the windows of the car this morning before work. Took a couple mins to do the whole scraper thing. The guys across the street were trying to drive up the hill in their little Ranger truck. Slipping & sliding, but going absolutely nowhere. At first, I barely gave ‘em a glance. When the passenger got out of the truck to help push it up the hill, I really started getting interested. If he got run over, I didn’t want to miss it. So now the driver’s still spinning wheels, and his buddy is on the downhill side of a 3000 lb truck trying to push it up a hill. In the snow. Riiiiiiight. Still didn’t get anywhere, and actually rolled backwards a bit during various attempts. Passenger gets back in the truck. Driver rolls backwards downhill about 2030 feet, like he’s gonna get a running start. Dumba55 is still on the same hill, same snow, same rate of incline, just a little lower. So now they’re slipping around in front of the neighbor’s house, instead of their own. Repeat. For real. One house further down the block, and trying the same thing AGAIN. By now, I’m done with the windows of the car. It’s clean, the heat’s warm, and I’m a little late for work, but this is good entertainment. I was a bit disappointed that the passenger got back in the truck before he lost any toes under the tires, but it’s still fun. They’re about 2 houses down the street from me, so my view isn’t as good anymore, so I figure it’s time to go. I backed out of the driveway, drove DOWN the hill, right past the two brainiacs. I was out of the neighborhood before I noticed whether or not they got a clue. ==================== FamStuff update – I’m back in school, and feeling the time demands. I got rather used to that winter break. Master College Waster and I got to hang out a bit on Wednesday night. He’s heading back to school this weekend. The rest of the kids all start exams today, so they’re totally thrilled that school wasn’t cancelled. The rest of us are helping a friend move into a new apartment tomorrow; followed by a road trip to Whitetail PA on Sunday morning for my nephew’s birthday party. ==================== Gametime… Brian is my favorite superchick. http://www.kentuckyfriedcruelty.com/superchicksisters/index.asp I think this is a repeat. It’s frustratingly simple, but TOTALLY addictive. Get in the box, stay away from the balls. Easy, right? http://www.fetchfido.co.uk/games/eskiv/eskiv.htm This would have been better if the pieces were destroyed a little more graphically.. http://www.awfulgames.com/games/tomb_chess/ ==================== Shelley thinks I’d look hot in a leisure suit. That 70s show, in real life. http://listoftheday.blogspot.com/2007/09/great-olan-mills-photos.html I knew Kimmie was a redneck. I’m amazed at how they’re just so creative.
