May need to upgrade to a bigger/more powerful snowblower next year. Three car wide driveway is proving to be a bit much. Especially with the pile at the end of the drive.

The panic buying here in Charlotte over an ice storm when it is going to be 50+ by Tuesday is a little much. No meat or bread left at my store when I went this morning. It's the remnants of the Iowa storm.

May shovel drive after the hoop games. Been "channel" flipping between the WBB and MBB games. Did the sidewalk and neighbors pre-game......looks like they are gone (peeps with lives and stuff) since no shovelings and garbage cans are out days before pickup. Their house looks a little more lived in now.

Random: I was searching for some details about Hocus Pocus yesterday, and learned that Thackery Binx is also Tim McGee on NCIS.

Okay. Maybe that was only interesting to me. :D
I haven't watched since
Gibbs left
. Actually stopped watching NCIS LA and the Blacklist too. Think they have all run their course. I'll catch up one day.

Okay I need some help (read Wx is not wanting to do the obvious Facebook and wants input). What companies do you view as being unethical?

Like generally exploitative of its workers and customers day to day or in the headlines for negative things.

@CycloneRulzzz : I made it just past 10 AM today. I don't know if we had a pregame rush or not.

But I've recorded my New England classes for DMACC. They'll have that module ready tonight.
ISU still doesn't have us assigned to these classs. I'm pretty sure that won't happen before the class begins, so I'll introduce myself as the "name you haven't seen yet" and roll from there.

Our rush was decent but not overwhelming which was good because of the weather we were really understaffed.

@wxman1, Walmart, maybe not unethical but for as big as they are they don't seem to treat people very well either on the employer or Vendor side. This is just looking in from the outside. Never worked there.
