So much for that prediction

They weren't too far off the mark but there is no way we got 24 inches.

On another note, I gotta tell ya, we have become a society of complete wusses.

Why the hell did we have a travel ban?

I can remember back in the 1990s having my friend John come pick me up at the airport in his manly macho truck because there was two or three feet of snow on the roads. It was a slow drive back to Wilbraham but we made it.

There was no travel ban.

There was no road closures.

There were no "day long newscasts" with roving reporters showing us rulers stuck in the snow.

We were obviously less skittery and panicky back then.

In other words, we didn't have deflated balls.
