Every year - without fail - word comes down in January that there is no money left in the budget for snow plowing and there will have to be cutbacks in other areas to make up for it. Either that, or taxes will have to be raised.<br /><br />Um, excuse me? We get snow every winter. You knew it was coming. It came last year, it came the year before that, on back to when we were part of England, for goodness' sakes. Plan it out, will you? Dopes.<br /><br />And, I kid you not, my word verification is WORSEST.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18287683.post-29228863754054797822009-12-10T14:02:34.235-05:002009-12-10T14:02:34.235-05:00wowzer.

You know how around here people complain as soon as it hits 30 degrees, then complain as soon as it's snowing? I think you can complain about one or the other. You'll never hear me complain about the heat, but I loathe winter and cold and snow with a vengeance.
