ha. I'm on a LJ group for Portland and you should see the posts. OMG there's an inch of snow!!! WE'RE STRANDED!!!!!

Scary thing is, as far as I can ascertain, they don't actually have enough infrastructure to deal with their snowstorms. And it ain't like it don't never snow there.....*shakes head*

If we ever got two inches down here the citizenry would be eating each other. Blood (slushy, icy blood) would run in the streets.

So the Yeti only go after those two ends of the bell curve? If you drive a mid-size you're okay? I'm wondering about the evolutionary logic behind that predatory strategy.

But most importantly, what will the yeti do to a subaru?

Does it make me a worse owner if I had to look that up...

I guess I just lost some geek cred. I am, however, wearing a shirt with a UNIX joke on it -- guess that makes up for it a little -- right?

Fortunately, the superbly nimble handling of our little Imprezas makes a great defense against the Wampa; we only have to outrun the nearest Tribeca.

I love you.

Also, we recently saw this: http://www.ukview.tv/movies4men/ToCatchaYeti

Oh my god it was awful. It was starring Meatloaf. At least it was free on demand and we had many laughs!

SURVIVAL MAY ONLY BE ACHIEVED BY PURCHASING A YEAR'S SUPPLY OF BOTTLED WATER AND TOILET PAPER.

Ah, and now I'm remembering that team-building exercise from the Skin Factory. We were supposed to come up with a survival strategy for a scenario in which our SUV was stranded in another killer NE blizzard.

The other members of my team did so badly that I told them that I would leave them in the vehicle and build my own snow shelter, returning later to eat their frozen bodies.
I don't think that was how that exercise was supposed to go...

At least this snow brings out the snark in people.
