The BIG ONE


Well it looks like our Luck has run out here in Virginia Beach. Just watched the 11pm News and we are expecting 8-10 inches of SNOW. Last Storm in 2002 was 5-6 inches. Good thing it is on the weekend cause these "REDNECKS" can't drive for $hit in the SNOW. Coming from N.J. it is hilarious watching them slip & Slide and crash into one another. Hope fully they will stay home. Me i'm going to Hunker down til next week when it all melts. Have a safe weekend.  Mr. Muffler

The Big One........snow is the BIG ONE...........sorry but the big one is 7.0 earthquake.
I've been in snow and 80 mph winds but it didn't even compare to an earthquake.
New Joyse does it still glow in the dark?

We don't have Earthquakes here in Virginia and hardly ever see any SNOW this is what they call "THE BIG ONE" here. Now in N.J this would be considered a Dusting and yes it does glow in the dark in N.J.

Dude, where'd everybody go?
Say something bad about President Clown and they'll all chime............
The military big wigs just sat there lokking like WTF.............

Nazi Piglosi looked as smug as ever, think there was a tool in her panites........?
No earthquakes.........you aint missing anything, Ive been in a Volcanic Eruption
Portland Oregon......Mt Saint Helens. That was the wierdest thing I ever saw in my life.

A 6.1 quake in Slymar Ca............
A 6.9 quake in Felton Ca..........

2ft of snow Portland Oregon.
60mph winds the Colombia Gorge Oregon..........the gusts were 80mph.
At 80 mph the rocks on the street hit your parked car like a shotgun.......
A lot of aircraft were destroyed at the Troutdale Airport....

Then theres the yearly ice storms, no power for days, no heat, no lights, snow driven under the front door.......it was great.

Then there was "El Nino" my house's basement flooded three times that year, 57 inches of rain........in 3 months......

I've seen enough of the shizt to last me forever..........then when I lived in Los Angeles Ca the 1965 Watts riots were going on and of course I was right in the middle of it.

Army jeeps straffig the buildings with .50 caliber machine gun fire, shops, buildings blown out into the street or burning, people on every street corner, it was a scary.

Like I said I'll take a nice quiet, sunny day in the Sierra Mountains anyday.......
Old might be ugly, but it is comfortable.........

Cheers Dude, bottoms up...........

People can be pretty stupid in the snow. I spent 14 years working Outside year around in the Rocky Mountains Colorado, Wyoming, Dakotas, and Utah.

The funniest time I think was when SUV's were first introduced and they were upside down all over the highways in the winter.


If it gets bad enough they will even eat each other.

People who drive SUV's in the snow for some strange reason think they are safe and the vehicle will handle like a snowmoblie. They have no clue they roll over easier than a car and don't handle the snow very well even with snow tires.

 I remember " SNOW TIRES" when I lived in N.J it was a Big wintertime business and sometimes even Snow Chains. Most people had an extra set of rims with Snow tires so they could install them at the last minute when a storm was due.
