669: Ternus, Take the Wheel

So this week, we had something happen in Richmond, which does not typically happen in December. And what we had happened was Good bagels? Oh, dude. Really? This is how this is the energy you're gonna bring to the show tonight. Please take note of who's antagonizing I am. I am you're still on my poo poo list, but now it's both of you. Both of you are on my poo poo list starting I mean, how do I not try that? Well played. Well played. I'm the chief derailer in chief. In any case, we had something very unusual happen. We got snow. And what is so funny to me so I haven't lived in Connecticut. I'm sure I've made this speech before on the show sometime in the last ten, eleven years, whatever. But I haven't lived in Connecticut since I graduated high school in 2000 in 2000. Went to Virginia Tech for four years. Briefly went back to Connecticut in the summertime for a couple of months while I was looking for work. And then I was down in Central Virginia, different part of Central Virginia, after that. So it's been twenty one years that I've been in Virginia. Far and away the longest I've ever lived anywhere. And, I really do not miss the snow. I'm good not having snow anymore.

So, it was, I believe, Sunday night, and they were calling for prepare yourselves, Northeasterners. They were calling for, I believe, three inches of snow. And by 4PM on Sunday afternoon, they had already canceled school from Monday. And, intellectually, I get why that is because, as I said, we just don't have the plows and the and the salt and the whatever in order to deal with it. I mean, we have some, but not nearly to the level that, you know, Massachusetts or New York has or Connecticut. But as someone who spent his formative years in Connecticut, where my recollection, probably incorrect, but my recollection was we were under a foot of snow between October and April. It's so funny to me that there had not been a single snowflake coming out of the sky by 4PM on Sunday, and they had already canceled school for Monday. And then they canceled school for Tuesday. And then today What? Wait wait a second. They canceled school for Tuesday on Sunday or on Oh, no. I'm sorry. On on Monday afternoon. I'm sorry. That was ambiguous of me. My apologies. And what was happening on the ground Monday afternoon that they can't canceled school for Tuesday? So they just hadn't …
