That mirrors my experience pretty closely.

Home sick from school, watching the Prize Movie waiting for Speed Racer and Lost In Space to come on.

I'm pretty sure Lanegan was lit up on there from time to time. I didn't even know what drunk was back then, but I knew when Lanegan was having one of his "goofy" days.

P.S. Collinsworth is a worthless douche. I actually liked Trumpy as an announcer.

Great vids Lister!

Just a couple of days ago, I was trying to explain the severity of the Blizzards of '77 and '78 to a co-worker out here in Arizona. They can't even begin to fathom what it was like.

I remember the Blizzard of '78...going to bed the night before it was raining and 60 degrees. Woke up for school at 7 a.m. and the snow had drifted to just below my 2ND STORY bedroom window.

I climbed out the window. Tunneled with my hands to get to our shed to get to the snow shovels. Then I had to dig out the doors so we could get in and out. Missed 3 weeks of school from that one.

I should dig up some pics of my house back then. That was an incredible winter.

I remember those newscasters.

Come on Furns, I grew up in the Bula, the real snow belt.

I loved playing me some hoop on my court in the winter, there were times we had a 15 foot wall surrounding my court from snow.

I guess it's all relative Riff. That Blizzard in '78 totally blew my mind. We weren't used to that kind of snowfall in Sandtown. At the time I had a hot and heavy girlfriend (she was my first if you know what I mean) in Huron 9 miles away. 3 days after that blizzard, I decided to hell with it and decided to walk to Huron since the roads were all impassable.

I'll never forget that walk between Sandtown and Huron. There were backhoes about every 100 yards dumping the snow off to the side. Cleveland Road was like a 9 mile tunnel with 20 foot piles of snow on either side the whole way there.

Her Dad was none to pleased that my Arctic ass came walking up to his door that day. It never dawned on me he'd be off work (Huron High School principal) because of the snow. He was more than a little irked when his wife insisted he give me a ride home that night. I guess I wasn't thinking straight. Ain't no blizzard getting in the way of my jacked up hormones.

As for the 'Bula. I have an Aunt in Geneva so I can relate to what your saying. I spent several weekends up there over the years and what would be 2 inches in Sandtown would easily be 10 at her place.
