Yeah but food chains might change over the course of the next 10 years, and my crops might not grow, but by all means we get to be lazy and not shovel snow.

I'm not holding my breath. It's rain out in the Midwest now. It's only going to be snow because it's happening at night.
Give it til Friday to melt lol
If it's a good amount, awesome. Not counting on it though. I'm not expecting my kids school to be open tomorrow, but we'll see.

Reply to comment by siditumart in Is a 78,000$ salary, before taxes, enough to live comfortably with my non-working wife in Storrs CT? by siditumart
We do it.
A bit of a smaller wage, but in this very area.
Our house is paid off though, and it saves us a lot.
I think you can do it comfortably as long as your rent isn't sky high.

That's not a long time, at all.
And you seem to be confusing the definition of capitalism, and production?
You can have the production of goods without capitalism.

This is exactly why my circle is like three people.
Fuck this mentality.
I'll take a down to earth hot mess of a friend over fake ass vanity any day.
Why have friends if you can't tell them how you feel? They..then..are not friends..

That's odd.
They must handle tickets differently then tolls?
I know someone who owes Mass so much in tolls, it's not legal to drive in MA for them right now. But their CT license is fine.

Yeah my kid is 9 now, and I worked many seasons with CT state Parks.
I don't know about all these luxuries, nor do I care. Connecticut is a great place to be. Been here my entire life.

I mean leftover Sandy money funded my first job after becoming homeless with my 3month old baby.
They used leftover cash to fund the widening/finishing of the airline trail in North East CT. This was in 2013, They still had left over federal funds from sandy.
Made $12.75/hr(more than minimum wage at the time) to help cut trees, drag em to chippy. Got CPR/first aide certified, and set up networking with the state parks for future jobs.
Because of that funding I got my son and I out of a shelter and into stable housing by the time he was 6months old.

Successful doesn't mean rich dear god.
Can we untwist this definition that success equals a rich man's paycheck?

Reply to Let's run a School Bus off of the Road! by 1mJustALurk3r
This kind of situation drives me mad! Nothing is more frustrating than impatient drivers being unsafe.
Where you gonna go? If you are stuck in a position going slower then ideal, you have to stick it out, suck it the fuck up and drive safely. Tailgating is just going to piss you off more. Rediculous.
Back winding road? The bus will turn off at some point. At the very least likely at the town line, chill and accept the moment. People are so self important. Very frustrating.
