My gosh does everyone have Bron****is? My hubby is better but still a lingering cough. He just can't shake it.

I didn't see that video but I heard them talking about it on the news while I was getting ready this morning. Its been some strange weather patterns across the US hasn't it?

You should have seen that video... your jaw would have hit the floor. You saw I think it was seven vehicles not including the parked cars get totaled when gravity took over on a really steep hill in a residential neighborhood that was untreated glare Ice. What's amazing was nobody got hurt

Ice storms are really not rare in Pittsburgh or even in DC where I am now... not in the span of my life that I remember. And I'm 49. I grew up in the Pittsburgh area.

Unknown008 · Jan 19, 2011, 09:02 AM

Yep, that's the little guy. :)

Funny, you replaced 'c' in bronchitis by s and AMHD censored it :p

Unknown008 · Jan 19, 2011, 09:05 AM

Ouch Stringer... I'm afraid you'll have to resolve to eating only soup for the time being...

smoothy · Jan 19, 2011, 09:06 AM

Hey Smooth,

I also grew up in the Pittsburgh area. Greensburg, Monroeville, Penn Hills area.

You learn early how to drive in ice and snow if you grew up there, I have many stories about situations on ice and white outs.

What part of Pgh were you in?

What always bothered my Smooth was that it always seemed to take them forever to salt the roads. And there are a lot of steep 'hills' around Pgh.

No, I have bronchitis and a touch of pneumonia that I can't seem to kick for the last three weeks.

88sunflower · Jan 19, 2011, 09:14 AM

Smoothy, wow. I watched it. Wild stuff!

I almost moved to PA. I was down in Mechanicsburg for a short time looking for jobs and housing.

smoothy · Jan 19, 2011, 09:14 AM

THe never did get to the street I live on... I barely got enough traction on the ice to get out yesterday morning. If it had been a smooth rather than really bumpy ice, I wouldn't have gotten to work yesterday morning at all.

Yes it does, I heard it crack and that sound is awful. Now half of the tooth is loose and hurting like h*ll! I am taking pain pills but it is starting to swell a bit.

Update: I just spoke with my dentist he recommended another dentist as he is out of town until Friday. BUT no, I told him I will wait until Friday unless the tooth breaks away... crap, crap and more crap...

I am sitting here in my PJ's and robe seating my a*s off with a tooth hurting, where the h*ll is that other box of Kleenex?
