Metro-Detroit Warning:


We are surely going to have the mother of all snow storms this winter. Be prepared, ignore global warming facts. Don't believe a word you read in the Farmers almanac. Jerry Hodak at ABC, Chuck Gaidica on WDIV, Ben Baily at FOX, forget about the Doppler... just listen up.






Two winters ago I bought a snow thrower. I know most call it a snow blower ... but in reality, it throws the snow off to the side. I also think of that joke "Why did the snowman pull his pants down? ... Because he heard the snow blower coming".
So I prefer to call it a thrower.





I bought it towards the end of the season, like in March, after struggling with shoveling all winter. So that first winter I used it once. The snow was so slight, I probably could have swept it off with a broom faster. Last year I used it twice. Not that there wasn't much snow, but every time it snowed, I'd come home from work and the retired man next door would have my driveway cleared off.



I put it on Craigs list and have someone coming for it tonight. Metro-Detriot ... you have been warned.
