Dear Lord, why is my neighbor running his snowblower now? Sure, start it up to make sure it's ready for tomorrow, but, um, dude, I don't think you need to let it run for ten minutes, then start it up a second time - ugh, a third time - just to make sure. Anyway:
Bill Trippe isn't worried about the storm:
... Sounds impressive, but 28 years ago this week, we got through the Blizzard of 78. Now that was a storm; this will be a snow shower by comparison. Besides, I've got plenty of gas in the snow blower, and my roof rake stands at the ready.
Hmm, I wonder if people born after 1978 are as sick of hearing about that blizzard as people who moved here after 1978?
Kristie Helms reports that fixing your busted snowblower can really save some bucks.
John reports on Deep Roasted Flavor that he's prepared:
... Gary and I went out last night and stocked up on all the various grocery items we might need (Asian veggies, various curry pastes, tempeh, soy ice cream, etc etc), and today I got some more firewood, a 50-lb bag of ice melt, and some more vino. (Ah yes, all the bases are now covered.) ...
And please do scroll down his page to see a picture of his snowblower. Unless you're easily offended, that is.

I'm not sick about hearing about it. What I am sick of hearing are people give all blizzards years. I have even heard this called the blizzard of 06'. There will only be one blizzard of such and such year and thats 78'.
