#683608 — We got 2" of snow... Apelanta and surrounding is officially shut down for days

As long as we have power and Internet - and a freezer full of frozen 
pizzas - I'm good.

For you, that much snow is apocalyptic; in 2017-2018, we got that much 
snow and -25c weather _every day_ for a month.

Yikes.  If you live with that for a while you adapt.  We get 2" once a 
year, so nobody makes an effort to prepare, other than running to the 
store for bread and milk (and frozen pizza).

We had a serious blizzard here in the early 90s - 2 to 3 feet of snow. 
Early that morning I crunched my way 3/4 a mile from my house to the 
interstate.  Stood on a bridge overlooking I-285.  Zero cars. Zero 
people.  Zero sounds.  Untouched layer of pure white snow.  No movement 
as far as the eye could see.  Eerie.

I've lived with it since I was born, so I don't have much trouble with 
it. I don't like it, but it doesn't bother me. You should see how 
comfortable I am driving in terrible, slippery snow conditions.

I broke my elbow a week ago walking back from the beer and wine store,
slipping on ice, I had figured if I weren't getting beer I'd be going
to McD's anyway, so same risk, but I sure got hit.  Had surgery on
Tuesday, seems to be healing well.

Ouch!

Hope you're following a good bone-healing diet, rather than just beer 
and McDonald's.

My family has treated me to some good food the last few days.  Can't
go anywhere on my own, at least till my boots are delivered, no way
I'm venturing out in my house shoes.

If there's a lot of ice on the sidewalks get Yaktrax or one of the other 
traction devices that fit on your boots or shoes. And wear them. I have a 
selection but fell on the ice and broke a hip because I was only walking 
to the grocery store and didn't put them on.

Heal fast and keep up any suggested therapy.

Shh, don't make such recommendations to him. We need for him to follow 
the Jeff Relf diet. How else will we replace our resident weirdo?

According to Relf's website, he hasn't posted to Usenet in 2 months.

Earlier I sent him an email, but no response.

I guess we might have lost a poster here then.

Why, oh why couldn't God have taken Chris Ahlstrom instead?
