Spanking Child With Wooden Spoon Not Child Abuse, Says State Court

[gopiscrap]

230. OMG even two inches oif snow in a night is a huge thing here in Tacoma WA

if we have more than 4 to 6 inches at a time schools are closed for a week, business shut down, govt workers are told to stay home. My wife is a teacher and is worst than the kids...if there is even a chance of snow, she is up at 5 listening to the tv waiting for her District to cancel class. One time and only one time we had 21 inches in one night and everything was closed for about 8 days. It was great!!!! It really is like a festive party at the park 4 blocks from where we live, the whole neighborhood is out there laughing and playing. Part of the problem is that Tacoma is totally made up of hills and we don't have the snow removal budget because of it's rarity. My wife once worked for a Catholic school on a steep hill and they got a new principal from Montana where it snowed a 100" a year. He rufed to close school for the 1 we had and a car slid into the house at the bottom of the hill. He never heard the end of it and from that point on just the mention of snow would close the school. I laughed my ass off.

On the flip side if it gets to 95 here, we have a heat alert and businesses with air conditioning start sending their kids home. It usually rains for ever her. One year we had 103 days of straight rain. One the first sunney day it was only like 65 and everyday was out in shorts etc.
