"The New York mayor’s office has fully embraced “Nemo,” tweeting “Fun fact: There are 6,300 street miles in New York City to be plowed and salted -- that’s like going from NYC to LA and back."
That figures, Major Mikey is a TFC... Twit First Class. Fun fact??? Not for people on side streets in the outer boroughs who won't see pavement until spring.

This could end up being the Oreo™ storm by next year. Color me suspicious.

Am I correct in saying that your U.S. weather people are now giving names to winter storms??
......stupidest thing i've ever seen....... a storm to remember named after a Disney cartoon.... I would've gone with Poontang myself....
Why,driving into a brick wall at 60 miles per hour, would I expect it not to hurt! :roll:

I guess that after one's power has been out for days and his roof has partially collapsed under the weight of snow accumulation, it's more of a consolation to imagine it was all just a passing visit from a friendly Disney character.
Not weather people, reality entertainment programming.Am I correct in saying that your U.S. weather people are now giving names to winter storms??

I've enjoyed island life for 17 years. That's 13 years more than the Confederacy was around.

Why does everybody remember Nemo as a fish when I remember him as captain of the Nautilus? Cummon, I'm not THAT old! Frankly the storm fit the captain and not the fish. Speaking of Jules Verne momentarily, 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea follows the same theme as Master Of The World, an attempt to bring world peace through use of superior weaponry. In both stories both ships and their mad captains meet their doom at the hands of their captives. There's a message here totally lost on a fish, even a flying fish won't get it.

20,000 Leagues Under The Sea -- wasn't that a TV reality show?
