Why run with the crowd when you can run around in circles?

Weather Report

'TODAYS SNOW AND FLURRIES IN SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND IS JUST A TEASE FOR WHATS COMING TONIGHT.'
Since when did the national weather service become so provocative?

'THE JACKPOT...10 TO 15 INCHES... WILL PILE UP IN THE HEAVILY POPULATED AREAS…'
Who’s writing this stuff, some silly blogger? If I hit the jackpot motherlode of snow, what do I win? A snow blower? Vacation to Aruba? Spring tinted glasses? Or do I get to shovel to my heart’s content, or until my heart quits, whichever comes first?

'SNOW... WILL BE HEAVY AT TIMES BETWEEN 10 PM TONIGHT AND 10 AM MONDAY CAUSING NUMEROUS DELAYS OR CANCELLATIONS IN ALL SORTS OF TRANSPORTATION DEPENDENT BUSINESS. THUNDER MAY ALSO BE HEARD.'
Woohoo, thunder, just like summer, except no mosquitoes. Instead, it’s freezing white as the car skids into a mammoth snowdrift while the world comes to a rumbling end. Can’t I opt for the skeeters with my thunder, please?

'AN INTENSE HEAVY 12 TO 18 HOUR SNOW STORM IS ON THE WAY FOR MOST OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND…WHEN A NOREASTER DEPOSITS A 5 TO 15 INCH SNOWFALL ACROSS MUCH OF SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND... EXCLUDING THE COASTAL SOUTHEAST.'
Please please please let that be true, 'cause I am on the southeast coast and I truly don’t care to win this particular jackpot.

Spring is coming spring is coming spring is coming…Isn’t it? Will anyone be able to see it if it’s buried under white crap?
