I did not go the the Puckett memorial
We are having a winter storm, and I did not want to deal with both the weather and the crowds.

They televised it, so I did feel like I participated.

3. It has only begun; they CLAIM we'll get up to 10" of snow.

Just like how the meterologist himself would claim to have 10", I doubt either is close to reality...

9. It turned to snow around 4:30 in St Paul
right as I was bringing the trash to the dumpster.

We should be expecting it, anyway. Boys HS hockey tourney just ended.
