Forecast: Freezing Rain, Sleet, Snow, Locusts, Dead Fish and Frogs.
NO Green boxes distributed around town with sand/salt. NO sand left at the DPW. See what happens Amherst voters when you don't support the Override!

UPDATE 3:30 pm I'm not one of those who wish bad things to happen so you can say "I told you so", so I just called 911 to request they get ahold of SOMEBODY at the DPW to refill the sandpile. After all, if the forecast is correct they should have an army arriving about now.
UPDATE: 3:45 pm. Damn, that's what I love about our 911 emergency response professionals (and the DPW)! We now have a MOUNTAIN of sand available,so 'come on down' folks . Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow.
UPDATE: Monday 6:00 am. So I gave up counting after 100 the numbers of cars and trucks coming to get sand last night (my home/office overlooks the pile). Maybe the DPW should reconsider the ban on Green Sand Boxes around town?
Thanks Larry. It takes a village.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's what we have, a village, a village complete with the village idiot. You know who I mean.
Thanks for making the phone call.
Yeah, well if somebody ended up in the hospital or worse after their senior citizen spouse had come to the DPW looking for sand and found none, I would never get over it.
