The Great Blizzard of December 2008

A blizzard-swept Weekly Alibi. Much like the Donner party, some employees may turn to cannibalism if the storm doesn’t soon relent.

The snows are not predicted to let up until Thursday, three days from now. At this rate we are all surely in for great hardships. If I were you I would start rationing meats, lamp oil and marshmallows. See the weather report here.

A wagon train braves the harsh weather as it attempts to traverse Central Ave.

Sheesh! [ Tue Dec 16 2008 1:30 AM ]
Stue, this is why I have chosen to stay in for the evening and treat myself to Tecate, Tom Wolfe and shit-tons of reruns of The Office. Let the indigenous scaredy-pants drive five miles an hour and still manage to hit-n'-run whilst we live like, er, the Middle Class?

It's funny [ Tue Dec 16 2008 10:55 AM ]
Yeah maybe the roads were bad but I love how it sort of starts to snow for the first time and you see on the evening news the whole city already planning to open at 10am the next day. I love New Mexico.

Comparatively the weather in New Orleans is warm with clear sunny skies on this average December day in south Louisiana.

We now go to a shot of St. Charles...

looks like it's going to be the perfect day jazz and lime daiquiris by the pool.

I like temperate! [ Tue Dec 16 2008 12:40 PM ]
Like Nozilkoff is displaying above. Also, I try to not complain about the heat so that when winter rolls around I feel justified in getting my bitch on.

It's snowing here, too [ Tue Dec 16 2008 9:10 PM ]
but when it does, the homeless turn into snowmen. We go around sticking carrots on their faces. They seem amused.
