Quoth elsporko View PostBut the magic combination is living in a county that has both plows and is willing to spend the money to send the plows out on the road. Traveling on Christmas Eve it took me twice as long to get out of my county, and once I hit the border the roads magically were completely clear.

Our town is also crunched for money, and our road is literally the last one plowed out. Mrdrone is seriously thinking of getting a deuce and a half with a blade .. so after a storm you would see one lane plowed out towards his job, and at the end of the day one lane plowed back to the house....A friend of ours was heading to our house and got stuck in a drift well after the plows *should* have plowed the damned road, and he set off from this way to see if he could get her dug out, and he couldn't get to her [about 2 miles down the road from us] so he had to come back, and she was stuck in her car for 3 hours until the town bothered sending a plow out. [She is smart and had a sleeping bag in the car and was wrapped in it reading when the plow went past and she was able to dig the car out herself the rest of the way when mrDrone got there to help.]EVE Online: 99% of the time you sit around waiting for something to happen, but that 1% of action is what hooks people like crack, you don't get interviewed by the BBC for a WoW raid.

Quoth elsporko View PostWho buys milk to prepare for an emergency anyways? Wouldn't bottled water and canned good be better?
Good point.
If you're stocking up for an emergency, then why buy something that needs to be refrigerated? What if the power goes out?
Putting the milk out in the snow won't do. You'll just wind up with frozen milk.
It would make more sense to stock up on something that will keep for a while.“Excuse me. Is this bracelet real jade?”
“Ma’am, this is a thrift shop. The tag on the bracelet says $1.50. It comes with a matching mood ring. What do you think?”
“I don’t know.”
“Yes, it’s real.”

People behave this way during hurricane season here in Florida as well, and it's baffling. And a question for the parents here, do you really give your kids/babies that much milk, or is it just the SC's playing the baby card? I honestly can't remember my Mom drowning me in milk as a child; she also raised my nephew and I don't remember her giving him a whole lot of it, either.
And from experience, when we actually did lose power from a storm once, I never wanted to see milk, vanilla ice cream, or sausage patties ever again. We were forever eating the perishable food at meals to keep it from going bad.The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
