What can you do on a Snow Day besides hang out on PF?

Do you live in DC too!?

No, west of there. To me anyone who didn't grow up driving in the snow can't drive very well. The day I got my learners permit Mom made me do donuts in the 6 inches of snow in the school parking lot, then she made me the rest of the way home. I didn't really drive on clear roads for the first 5 months I was learning.

The idiots around here! The kids have had all these days off from school because it was...cold. So, I guess now they've used up too many days off, so when we have such horrid weather like today, the dingbats in the county had a full day of school for them. And, sure enough, the evening news is reporting a school bus accident that was a result of the weather. There's no way buses should have been out in today's weather!

That happens here, too. The administrators act like the snow days are perks for the teachers and staff and use them frivolously, but then when the snow days are all used up and some REAL storms show up, they get really brave about making the buses run because they don't want to have to tack on extra days to the school year and work a little extra during the nice weather in June. It's quite predictable.
