Morning world...My Goodness! The wind....she blows! Matt, don't take the dog to the park today!

BlackOps450 03-02-2018 07:59 AM

GOOD MORNING FTE :-jammin
Oh yea it is windy.

BlackOps450 03-02-2018 08:45 AM

I don't know what I'm going to do today.
No park for me and dogs today Bud way too windy. Have a great day FTE

tiny1 03-02-2018 10:07 AM

Morning Matt, Bud and fellow travelers. No park for us today unless you break out some cross country skis or snowshoes. Had about 8" of snow on the ground when I left the house this morning and some more is on the way. Should top out around 10-12".

BPofMD 03-02-2018 10:17 AM

That's what my F-I-L used to call nature's spring fertilizer! I called it a bunch of $hlt.

BIGKEN 03-02-2018 11:15 AM

Good afternoon Bud-land...and...wandering miscreants!!! Just a nasty miserable day here...sounds like it's the same all over the Northeast and Mid Atlantic!!!

BlackOps450 03-02-2018 04:01 PM

I'm glad I'm not working outside today :-X24 wind just blowing all around here

BleedMichigan 03-02-2018 07:56 PM

So I am slightly lost. Since I come from the Midwest the closings in Maryland make little sense to me. Why do schools close with a dusting of snow? I can understand today’s winds sort of. Otherwise my kids have had 5 “snow” days during which only one day was there actual snow. This is just very confusing. Also what’s with the drivers here who have no clue how to merge on the expressway? So hopefully everyone was safe today.

BlackOps450 03-02-2018 08:14 PM

LOL I drive everywhere in MD and I always hate driving south of 32 for that exact reason. Best just to be patient and prepare for them to come over even if they don't, not worth time and headache with accident plenty of experience on that. Maryland was just ranked top 10 worst drivers, I think we were 3rd worst in USA

BlackOps450 03-03-2018 08:37 AM

GOOD MORNING FTE Oo. :-headbang

BPofMD 03-03-2018 11:12 AM

Howdy world.... The wind continues to blow here so I'm gonna wait until tomorrow to go out and pick up the pieces of my trees laying in the yard.

Confused about MD school closings and drivers, Ben? I've been trying to figure it out since I moved here in 1975! Welcome to the club.

BleedMichigan 03-03-2018 07:05 PM

Yeah Bud I am very confused. Drove to Baltimore today and everyone stays in the right lanes. Someone trying to merge the guy in the first right lane doesn’t slow down or speed up to let you in they seem to just pace you. In Michigan people move over or they travel in the left lanes instead. I realize a lot of the ramps are short here and everyone seems to do 20 over but geez they could learn to not drive like jackasses. School closings are just as bad, I do not understand how the state mandates school start after Labor Day but end no later than June 15. That’s stupid, Michigan has done the start after Labor Day thing since I was in high school and it does not help tourism and it really doesn’t help with AC usage because the year just ends later. So yeah I have no clue to the school system here. Since I live in Howard County I must miss something because not once this year have the roads near me been bad enough to close school unless you have no ability to keep a car in your lane. It’s comical in some sense because my kids old district has had one snow day and that was the day after a weekend of 16 inches.

GOOD MORNING FTE :-bigparty

66fdtrucknut 03-04-2018 09:22 AM

Good morning , Md. The further south you live the worse it gets. as funny as it sounds, we don't see as much snow as the northern neighbors, add unskilled drivers, too many drivers on the road and way too many ambulance chasers looking for a lawsuit. I'm a school teacher, I understand. there are built in makeup days now, we lost most of our school break to make up days. The kids always want snow days, I tell them it's like deferring a loan payment, it doesn't go away. We had a bus accident a couple years ago which makes the district think twice.

CollinsCD 03-05-2018 05:52 AM

Good Monday morning Maryland!

67nukeford 03-05-2018 07:10 AM

Good morning Land 'O Bud, and all my fellow visitors, welcome to Monday!

BPofMD 03-05-2018 07:15 AM

Morning world....hope everyone now has electricity here on the east coast. I know not everyone in MD does NOT! Some were told in might towards the end of THIS week before it is restored.

67nukeford 03-05-2018 07:16 AM

Morning Bud, get pretty nasty out there, did it?

BPofMD 03-05-2018 07:19 AM

It did, Pat. Area got up to 70MPH winds.... not that bad in my back yard, but am happy for our underground utilities.

67nukeford 03-05-2018 07:19 AM

Wow! It was windy here this weekend, but, nothing like that!

BPofMD 03-05-2018 07:25 AM

...and we didn't get the worst of it! The NE coast really got it!

67nukeford 03-05-2018 07:26 AM

Yeah, saw that on the news.

fire240 03-05-2018 07:27 AM

Good Morning Bud, Matt and all of Maryland.

BPofMD 03-05-2018 08:19 AM

Hey Shaun....have yourself a great day at WORK!

fire240 03-05-2018 08:25 AM

I'm going to try Bud. Will be training a new person today.Then tomorrow. Train the new person some more until it is time to go to a training class.

BPofMD 03-05-2018 10:02 AM

OK...now I understand your statement here. ^^^

fire240 03-05-2018 10:26 AM

Yeah. Train the new pserson today. Then I spend all of about 2.5 to 3 hours training them tomorrow. Then I have to leave for a training class on campus from 1100-1500 hours.

BPofMD 03-05-2018 10:28 AM

I knew you were just another DOM like the most of us!

fire240 03-05-2018 10:29 AM

Pretty much Bud. I have to sit in a diversity training class tomorrow. Everyone at the university has to take the class. Tomorrow is just my day to take it. At least it gets me out of the office for a few hours.

tiny1 03-05-2018 10:52 AM

Morning Bud, Matt, Shaun, Pat, Ken, John and anyone that I missed. Hope that all is well.
