kapkomet Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 30, 2011 -> 07:40 PM) Sounds like you guys are going to get a nasty ice storm out of this. Us too. My parents are here... they are supposed to connect through O'Hare on Wednesday. I think they're going to get to visit a while longer then they thought they would. It's supposed to be 8 degrees Wednesday night which is damn cold for here. It must be the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are talking at least 12 inches everywhere, with 16-20 projected lakeside, and higher squals possible in lake effect belts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 They are forecasting 40 degree here. I was just walking the beach in shorts and thinking about grabbing a board without a wetsuit it was so nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just drive out anyway and expect that the flight will be canceled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they're already here (Dallas) and have a connection through O'Hare going back to Indianapolis. I'm sure the flight will get cancelled but I wonder how bad they are about change fees in advance as opposed to after the storm hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 So I was supposed to go back to Carbondale this weekend but I couldn't make it cause I couldn't get my car out of the garage(true story) but one of my best friends who was back there visiting got jumped and got his face all f***ed up, facial fractures galore. As much as I love that place it's gotten so ridiculous the last few years, unfortunately I can't even count the number of times my buddies and I have been jumped down there the last 2 or 3 years. My freshman and sophomore years, we never had any problems and all the sudden it became a weekly thing for someone in my group of friends to have to defend themselves from something ridiculous happening.

There's no way you'll win either of these. My wife tried it in Baltimore, lost. Even though nobody else was at the intersection. Red light cameras are bulls***.

The party house we all hung out at a few years back was down there and literally the 2nd semester that year, every freakin weekend something crazy was happening. My one friend literally got beat up by 5 guys walking back home when they asked him if he was happy Obama won the election and he jokingly said "Who's Obama?" got jumped right there by all 5 of them while he was with his gf, f***in ridiculous.

iamshack Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 My guess is the only thing you could do is try to befuddle them on a technicality, such as raising questions as to when the last time the thing was serviced and maintained...and hoping they are not following proper protocol or unable to provide the required documentation.

Crazy, I have never gotten jumped but i have a friend and she was knocked out from behind and wokeup in some random guy's house. He told her that was passed out so they took her someplace safe... was realllly weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
