Got Eggs, Milk and Bread? It's Snowmaggedon!!
I figured it would be Murphy's Law. If I left the blower buried in the shed, we'd get a foot. If I pulled it out and got it ready, we'd get a dusting. You can thank me later for the lack of snow this time..

Got Eggs, Milk and Bread? It's Snowmaggedon!!
It took a while for it to start sticking on the roads and concrete surfaces here, because the ground was so warm. But finally, it's starting to get some buildup on the roads. I don't see how we're going to get 8-12, my guess might be 4" at best. Suppose to taper off between 3 and 4 PM.

Now they bumped it up to 8 -12 here. I guess it was a good thing to pull the snow blower out yesterday. I hope @silverado427 tested his snow blower too.

I kinda wonder, how do they get the deer to sit quietly, while they stick that testing swab halfway up into their brain?

We are going from a high of 62 today down to 17 tomorrow night. The ground is so warm, should be tough for the snow to stick.

PSA
Went out to fill the gas can for the "Global Warming" coming tomorrow. Topped off the tank in my truck at the same time from a half a tank. $3.38 for regular, $42 to half fill it. I don't normally even look at the price, because frankly, I can't control it. But this is getting nuts.. I'm just really glad I'm not working anymore. When working, I was on the road everyday, and filling up multiple times a week... I'd hate to have to deal with these prices now. Ahhh, I can hardly wait to see what the prices will be in a few months, when I need 40 -50 gallons in the RV every day...

Maybe not Snowmaggedon (although I've been getting warnings on my phone all afternoon), but those of us on the lower half of the state will see some "Global Warming" tomorrow. Got beer? Here's the chart:

TEST MY PREP!
Did you run it with a load on it, like an electric heater? Best to test with half the rating, if possible. Many gennys will run fine with nothing plugged in, but have issues when a load is put on them. Now, go fire up your snow blower and test it. We're in the 5+ inch band for tomorrow.

Does it have an option to pull start, or is the battery start the only option?

Where Did You Go / Are You Thinking Of Moving TO When You Leave NJ
That's exactly the issue I have with wifey and twisting her arm to leave, the grandkids. I've told her between technology today (where she can chat with them anytime) and that I'll take her on a road trip in the RV to come visit them when ever she wants, I can't get any traction.

the proposed new gun law for safe storage
Interesting... are they that stupid that they would piss off the active LEOs that are currently guarding them?

They would probably slide that exception in at the last minute.

Will You Ever Be Able To Legally Carry A Gun In New Jersey?
You mean like getting National Reciprocity, in2017, when the Republicans held both houses of Congress, and the House passed it, but the Senate wouldn't even bring it up for a vote? That hope?

All cool... the best part of these forums, no matter what the topic, is the ability to bounce around different ideas, in hopes it helps someone think of something they missed. Hopefully, no one goes out, no matter what the topic, and blindly makes a decision, without some personal reflection or due diligence. Just because "you read it on the Internet, doesn't make it true".

Absolutely agree. I have four different finance guys, but I still spend every morning bouncing around all the different finance and business TV and media sites, to get varied opinions on what's going on. You can never have enough information. I even don't take the single advice of any one of my financial advisors, because, opinions are like a'holes... everybody has one. At the end of the day, the financial decisions I make are 100% my problem.

Just coming back to post that. We just use these forums as a way to spin ideas and get different opinions. At the end of the day, everyone is personally responsible for their final decision. So, why do you think the I bonds are a bad decision?

Nice... One tip, if you put in $10K each today, you'll have to wait until after Jan. 1st to do the next $10K.

Yeah, I thought that input method was a little weird too, but it must keep the bad guys out. For someone who has some idle cash sitting around or has some money parked in Money Markets, this current return on the I bonds can make some coin in the near future.

Pelosi rejects stock-trading ban for members of Congress: 'We are a free-market economy. They should be able to participate in that.'
We now know why Pelosi didn't have an issue with trading. Notice the date of this thread then notice the date of her trades below: ...."Despite a populist grassroots movement seeking to ban Congress members from trading stocks, one which has attracted bipartisan political support, Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi - arguably one of the most prolific Congressional traders - said two weeks ago that lawmakers should be allowed to make trades while serving. “We’re a free market economy,” Pelosi told reporters during a news conference. “They should be able to participate in that.” We mention all of this because according to the latest Periodic Transaction Report covering Nancy Pelosi's latest trades, the California Democrat purchased millions worth of call options in companies from Alphabet, to Micron, to Roblox, Saleforce and Walt Disney. And while the presumption is that there Pelosi did not trade on inside information, something tells us each of those trades will be profitable. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/nancy-pelosi-buys-millions-call-options-google-micron-roblox-salesforce-and-disney
