    The real question is, how could you be there and not go to Wegman's? I miss that place so much.

    I agree with you 100 percent. The magnificence of Wegman's cannot be overstated.

    Apparently the Patriots did put a serious dent in some Dinosaur BBQ and ordered extra for the trip home.

    The greatest grocery store chain in the history of the world. They're usually quite large and have eateries within them that are better than any fast food place (and they include everything from pastas to subs to chinese food).

    That's just wrong. I made the mistake of telling people in that office about carrying my suit and pants in the dry cleaning plastic on Monday, instead of zipping it in a suit bag. ... And now they all think I am a bit dim. First, for actually showing up there and then for losing my pants. It wasn't my finest hour, for sure.

    They finally plowed my immediate neighborhood, but did a half-assed job, so the plowed area on my street is wide enough to allow a smart car driving on two wheels--or a golf cart--to get through. As of last night, the street around the block from me hadn't been touched by a plow. I realize we are a bit remote. I live on the water. But I am not sure what would have happened if an emergency vehicle had to get down here. Someone dared them to plow by building a 4 foot snowman in the middle of the street and decorating him with battery-powered lights. The snowman was still there this morning, but was gone this evening and the good folks from sanitation had plowed in all the cars which are now barricaded by 8 foot banks. Thank goodness it is warming up and a lot of that should melt in the next few days. Bring on the floods!

    First big snow of the season -- yes, the season; only 1.5 inches since September -- about to hit the MileHigh area. Up to 10 inches in the city expected.

    From what is coming out it sounds like NY Sanitation union purposely did a poor job in retribution to Bloomberg laying off 400 union workers.

    One of things they did was to keep their plows higher so it did not pull up as much snow.

    Sounds like some heads are going to roll.

    BTW, no ' in Wegmans. They address this on their website.
    And yes, I am fortunate and cursed to have one in my town.
    The parking lot is always a zoo and you can't take 2 steps without running into someone you know.
    That said, the best grocery store.

    Some of them did go to the Dinosaur BBQ, a nice consolation prize (there's one in Rochester as well as Syracuse).
