That White Stuff, It's Called Snow, Now Deal With It Already

Hey folks, help me out here. I made the mistake of watching the local news and I swear, it's like this damn city's never seen snow. And the snow's not even supposed to happen until sometime tomorrow afternoon, IF IT HAPPENS! Yet the weather cast is treating this just like it's a hurricane watch.

Now I might be mistaken, but I could swear it snowed last year, at about this same time. And I remember this because it started as I was leaving my office at the former employer's building. And as I pulled out of the parking garage, these white snakes flakes started falling on my car. And I drove to Toyota Center for an Aeros game, and flurries started coming down.

Somehow, I survived. Somehow, Houston survived. Yet watching the news and weather, it's like Ike is coming back to get its final revenge.

Get a grip you frigging morons. It's only snow. It's kind of wet and slippery which means that you drive on it the same way you drive when it rains in this city, like frigging idiots who think that you can drive 80 on wet streets just like you can drive 80 on dry streets.

I'm ashamed to be a native Houstonian sometimes. This is one of those times.
