ReplyDeleteHere in Wisconsin I've been seeing (online and on TV) all about the big East Coast storm all day. I'm sick of it. Never could figure out why a huge snowstorm in the Midwest rarely rates a mention outside the region, but a storm on the East Coast is somehow different--BIG news nationwide. You don't suppose it has anything to do with the locations of the New York Times, Washington Post,, USA Today and so forth, do you? Nah, they couldn't be that stuck on themselves.
ReplyDeleteFrom another Wisconsinite - I can see when they get 12 inches, and there just isn't anywhere to put it in New York City.
ReplyDeleteBut jeez, those East Coast wusses cry "storm of the century" three times a year. Afterwards you have to watch them pat themselves on the back for coming together and surviving two inches of snow. Last week I was driving 55-65 through six inches of snow. IN MY COROLLA. Big whoop.
Reason #3248 why I'll never live further east than Indiana.
