So you're a total loss at the cocktail and long drink front.

Total loss. Absolutely.

Whaaat so cheap? Here they are about 2 dollars for one piece usually, now about a dollar when it's their season.

Imagine what else could be done: maybe a shirt with (bendable) microchips could also analyze the person's chemistry and figure out which chemicals a person is short in

I think that the government is doing what they can to get people off the roads and home before it hits. DC and Federal government are both shutting down at noon. Metro is operating through tonight but they will be closed Saturday and Sunday with their trains parked underground. No bus or train service this weekend.

I wonder if the government has ever been shut down by a snowstorm before.

Yes, plenty of times in the DC area. According to the OPM Archives, it was closed for 4 days in Feb. 2010.

Imagine the government is shut down and nobody recognizes it.

So, I guess this isn't such a big deal on that account.

At least they get paid. When congress causes a shutdown, nobody gets paid - except the congressmen.

I envy you. Question: What do you get when it rains in tiny strips (#48) at 270° air and 265° ground temperature?

Good to see a trend of people reading actual whole books, in contrast to the general unfocused crowds and their wild back and forth jumps in attention and focus.

Strange that supermarkets are depleted in waiting for the storm, but the products that people bought in mass are bread, coke and many perishables. EDIT: Good for me, more perishables left over for me: beans (in a can, of course), tuna, distilled/bottle water, etc. Let it rip.
