MEGA STORM of the Century Cripples Seattle

OK. Here is Continental's office and warehouse. But, it isn't in Anchorage, it is in Seattle. Seattle goes a little bit crazy when it snows. Everyone spins out and abandons their cars on the side of the street as if an A bomb has gone off. Buses leap of ledges like lemmings falling to their death into a river

In essence, civilized people revert back to cave men, hunkering around fire, storing goods like squirrels. The only thing that has changed is that the trees and pine cones have become Safeway and Toaster Pops and the fire may be a screen saver of a crackling fire (hard to believe, but you can buy it at Costco).

For those of you who are considering moving to Seattle from the midwest, heed my advice. Stay off the roads, rent a movie, avoid watching 24 hours straight of news showing Jim Foreman of KING TV news, in this year's artic parka, on an overpass talking about Blizzard 2008, Snow Blast 2009, or worse yet, MEGA Storm of the century.
