What did you do during the Blizzard of 2011

Especially on SB weekend! They'd better break out the inmates and chisels.

Hahaha....

Speaking of the SB, something came to mind earlier........

Jerry Jones sold over 1,000 "Outdoor" standing room only tickets to his outdoor pavillion facility where people could watch the Super Bowl there at the stadium on that big screen TV he has outside the stadium.

Price per ticket........$200.

Wonder how many people with those tickets are now thinking craaaaapppp.............:D

Left El Paso Wed, eastbound on 10, then 20. Hit ice around Odessa, parked for a few hours in Cisco, hoping sun would melt the ice, no luck, was solid [and choppy!] ice all the way through Dallas.
Dispatch was very proactive, reminding me to stop if conditions were too bad - was good to hear it, made delivery ontime. :)

Glad you made a safe delivery Cheri.

My snowblower crapped out on me, but given the amount of snow we had, it would not have kept up with the amount of snow we had...My buddy who has a plow saved me. Took the snowblower to its doctor (a retired guy who works out of his house in Bridgeview, IL) and he called me today, he needed to order some new parts...We're supposed to get some more later in the week 2-3 inches now sounds like cake compared to the monster storm we just had so I'm without the snowblower til next weekend. :(
