The Friday Morning Snow Storm
I actually felt bad for the snowplow guys. There they were, all buzzing around town, searching for something to plow, finding nothing but clear roads. There was a bit of snow sticking to lawns, but no customers wanted their lawns plowed.
Yep, Friday’s “snow storm” caused every school to close and, more importantly, cancelled all of Gideon Fountain’s carefully prepared house-showing plans, and for what? Essentially flurries, the sort of snow Vermonters would barely notice, let alone change their plans for.
Absolutely pathetic, and a sign that Americans, well, Greenwich Americans, get softer and wimpier every year. This despite nearly every household owning at least one 4-wheel drive vehicle. Driving in snow is what they were made for, dammit! If that makes you nervous, go find an empty, snow-covered parking lot and practice. If you fear snow, you are a sissy, plain and simple, and the world can be a very hard place for sissies. Now, get out there!

Sorry, no more skating, no more fun, all because some sissy-pants chiropractor or urologist or something, successfully sued the Town of Greenwich when he broke his leg whilst trespassing on town property.
At least the drought’s over.
Kamper:
Ha, don’t we wish! As I’ve previously noted, it seems that NO AMOUNT of rain/snowfall can ever fill our reservoirs again. We brokers just got yet another directive from the Town o’ Greenwich and (those geniuses at) Aquarion Water Company claiming “the drought continues!” Bunk, say I.
Perhaps a committee could study this.
AcheKay:
Bingo! In six short words, you have come up with the solution and we all thank you! (and yes, we do appreciate sarcasm in this blog)
Town of Greenwich should not be allowed to sell our water!!!!!
So:
Um, don’t be silly, shall we not? The Town of Greenwich cannot “sell water” that is owned by Aquarion. In fact, knuckle-head Selectman Marzullo actually accused the water company of delaying water restrictions “in the name of profits” (https://www.google.com/amp/www.stamfordadvocate.com/local/amp/Stamford-Greenwich-officials-question-timing-of-9965248.php).
Marzullo, like most Democrats, doesn’t like for-profit enterprises because, as we all know, government does things SO much better.
