Foot of snow predicted for Long Island and coastal Connecticut is supposed to get socked too.

Would be nice if Ford called on Saturday to say my van was ready to go play in the snow.

Eh, likely the snow would be falling already and the Hyundai would get stuck trying to get there.

Hi Brian,

I'm PWI (or working on it) and trying to figure out how I am going to finish a bathroom in Greenwich AND get a check to finish my Christmas shopping tomorrow.

A little snow tomorrow afternoon won't slow me down.

Too bad it's in hartford until Wednesday at the earliest. And it's got no body and we need to put in a dually rear and register it and insure it. So basically no way in hell it will be ready for this year.
my truck had a 9' fisher when i bought it. that was the first mod....ditch the plow!

well its been a long interesting evening, sorry ray i have no pictures.

im off to watch back to the future part III, then maybe some sleep.
