Freaking snow.

I once drove from Hiram, Ohio to Eaton Township, Ohio (approximately 100 or so miles) in what became a level 3 snow emergency. I drove the whole way on the shoulder next to the barrier and DIDN'T KNOW that I was on the shoulder. That was nothing compared to tonight's blizzard.

I drove the last fifteen miles home from work totally unable to see the road. I work about 3o miles away, and at that last 15 mile mark I had to unroll both my windows and drive that way, or else I would have gone off the road. I actually did pretty good, until I got to my apartment complex, where I promptly got stuck in the parking lot and Bryan and I had to dig my car out.

Ted Strickland, the governor, has refused to call it a snow emergency.
I vote we stick HIM out on Lake road with all HIS windows down unable to see anything but an inch of snow in front of him, and see how he feels after two and a half hours in an economy car with frozen wiper fluid. I wonder if he'd change his mind.
