    Saudi Aurora got about 8? of Heavy snow that packed down from it?s own weight. Made it a a little tough with my snowblower, guess I need to up the caliber and get an assault snowblower.
    Still, better than shoveling says my lower back.


    The bad thing though, at about 1300 hrs. my neighbor texted me that I left the drivers window open my car in the driveway??..

    I?m sorry sir. You must specify snow height in units of random animals around here.

    I'm guessing you need to spend more time up here in the Springs area. You wouldn't be missing the gulls around here. This morning I watched a flock of seagulls (the birds, not the band) make a low pass over Hwy 94 just in front of me as I was headed to work.

    We got less than a bunny of snow today. Probably around a half inch of rain though. Nowhere for those little bastards to hide.

    I grew up in Lakewood during the 70's and 80's... Dr. John Pepper was the superintendent of Jeffco Schools, transferred in from International Falls, Minnesota. In the entire time I went to Jeffco schools, we had 1 actual snow day, and one day in 1983 when they let us out an hour early. Kids these days don't even walk to school, and they still get snow days...

    In other news, we got a solid armadillo and a half of snow at the house in Aurora, maybe a guinea pig at the shop in Golden...
    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Dr Pepper was the Superintendent when I was in school to. I thought the rumor was he was from Alaska. In the entire time I went to Jeffco schools I only remember one snow day too.


    Yesterday we got a good 14 inches of snow. Straight snow, not including drifts. It is great. However this morning some moron from Scottsbluff found out Hwy 85 was closed and decided to take backroads to Colorado. (by the looks of them to buy dope) They got stuck, they called a friend and they got stuck a mile away. I went out and asked if they were taking their kid to the hospital for a cancer treatment or someone to the hospital, because there was no other reason to be out with ground blizzards and unplowed roads. "no boss we just want to got to Denver". I told them because of their actions now the road was blocked so the road grader cant bust the drifts. I pulled the one vehicle out and put it in my driveway. It was fine, nothing broken, unstuck. He asked to borrow a shovel to go help his friend up the road get unstuck. He was wearing tennis shoes, a light coat, and no gloves. we gave him a shovel. They never got the other vechicle unstuck. He comes back and says he is going to go back the way he came. We told him not to and he wouldnt make it. 200 yards later....stuck. Now the snow damaged his lower fairing and he said a fuel line. He wants clamps, tools etc. I told him he got 1 chance for me to help him and he wasted it. I called dispatch and let them know there were 2 vechicles stuck on our road, but the road was impassable for a Deputy. They sent out the grader with the drift buster on it.
    The asshole tried to steal my shovel and then lied about it. He kept calling me boss. I assume he has spent some time in jail/prison. Then he also wanted a phone charger. How do people get this stupid?

    We had a wreck this morning and Hwy 85 got shut down and some lady told one of our firefighters she was going to go down Hwy 85 anyway. She didnt care if it was closed. She had to get to Colorado.


    tldr: unprepared people are stupid.
