More snow.

NEPA natives are a strange breed. If they hear that there is going to be more than 4 inches of snow, everybody runs to the grocery store and buys bread and milk. This is a true story. Its not an exaggeration. Yesterday, I stopped at the grocery store to get a jar of jelly...something i do twice a week on my way to work. Normally, I'm in and out in 3 minutes flat. I walked in, and there were lines to the back of the store. It hadn't even started snowing yet, and now, I have to not get my jar of jelly because I can't wait in a long line on my way to work.

Now, what I don't understand, even in the face of dire emergency, when you were certain to be locked in your house for 3 weeks, why in the name of god would you go to the store and buy bread and milk? Bread and milk are the two most perishable food items that you can possibly buy.

Oh, and hey people, even if you can't possibly leave your house, even if you're stuck inside with no food, you can call the chinese people and they will deliver you food, or the pizza guy if you prefer. Those chinese people ALWAYS open their shop.

    NOVA people do the exact same thing, only when it's 2 inches of snow. We don't even have the hills that they have in PA so it's not so bad to drive in.

    Those Chinese people are more consistent than the USPS. I love those guys!
