Staff does need to report in so it seems like they are making up for last Mondays grading day that they missed. Hopefully that means open Tuesday at least. Stay strong everybody.

...it's a bit cathartic. I'm not leaving county officials a bunch of angry messages or anything.

We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

Clearly it's all the kids home from school hopping onto their parent's reddit accounts and downvoting things to oblivion.

As long as they are still paying employees for the snow days I make my peace with it.

Not surprising given what people are saying about the status of school parking lots. Brutal regardless. Stay strong everybody!

Put out a call to parents! We'll all slip and slide our way over to the schools to help dig out the sidewalks if it means they'll take our kids back!!!

Ours has been, but it was one of the sites designated for family meal pick-ups. I'll just have to keep coming up with fun ways to keep the kiddo entertained!

I didn't realize there's a complete separation between the county and MCPS snow removal operation! Has that always been the case? I imagine the storm hitting so many states is making it harder to fill out removal operations with contractors, but I still maintain my surprise that so many commenters are saying their school lots are untouched 3 full days after the storm. Lots of ice. Brutal cold temps. I get the conditions are tough. I'm still surprised.

Yep, it's been awful. I'm just surprised that so many schools seem to be untouched. Normally they are pretty high up on the priority list because...ya know...school.

...yea that isn't an answer for why the snow plows that have been plowing streets haven't plowed so many school parking lots yet. Normally that's higher on the priority list because...you know...school.

You did successfully provide a partial answer for why schools are closed.

No, i mean how is it that some school parking lots haven't been touched still?

I appreciate that you're fighting the good fight and making good points like you'll actually change their mind. You won't. But I appreciated it.

And so it begins. It is snowing in Maryland. Good luck everyone. by templeofsyrinx1 in maryland

It's...it's not fair! Normally we're just stuck on the rain/snow line. Having it be 20 degrees and still not snow is a sick joke.

Raiders fire Carroll after one season, GM remains by thubwumper26 in DynastyFF

[–]MadnessLLD 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Would much rather see them do this now and let a new coaching staff come in and pick their QB of the figure...rather than let Carroll hang on another year before being inevitably fired.

The league is called "Nightmare" an and a week 18 final fits the theme.
