6:00
Suddenly, the
dream I'm having about wiring the
Air Force Academy with
cat 5 is met with the addition of the
idiot college dropout
DJ on the local
pop radio station. His monotone voice seems distant, and he's just rattleing off a list of cities.
Why? I slowly come out of my restful
slumber. A glance at my window shows that there is a lot of
snow on the ground! As I begin to get up and look at it, I realize what's going on on the
radio:
SCHOOL CLOSING ANNOUNCEMENTS! I turn the radio up and listen intently.
I'll repeat the list one more time. In Illinois: Alton, Astoria,
Quincy Catholic schools, Quincy Christian, Quincy College- erm, I'm sorry, Quincy University.
Huh? Why are all the
Quincy schools out except for us?
And Quincy Public schools.

The weather really isn't that
bad. We've only got about 1½
inches, which is
nothing for us
hardy midwesterners. I've gone to school with b4 inches before. I think the superintendant must have been watching channel
10, where the idiot
weatherman Cory McCloskey predicted that we'd get
8 inches combined with freezing rain and high winds. Oh well, I don't care. I'm posting this and then leaving, 'cause I've got to go break out my
Flexible Flier.
