Over 16 inches of snow in NJ

Rockaway, NJ received 16.4"!! We were not prepared for this amount this early and as the trees still had a lot of foliage, they are all sagging and breaking.


So let's see, so far this year in Northern NJ:

Earthquake
Hurricane
Flooding
And now over a foot of snow in October!

What's next, the Jets will win the Super Bowl???

I'm not sure of the science behind it all, but you can be sure it's global warming,

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

In defiance to the weather gods, Mrs. Z-man and I cooked some steak on the grill oustide, just as the snow was beginning to accumulate:


They were delicious!

No time for charcoal. Remember - I'm in Jersey -- if you don't get it done YESTERDAY, its too late! My only complaint about microwave ovens? They take too long to cook!

"Remember - I'm in Jersey"

I'm in SE PA. Somewhere along the way I "deprogrammed" the urgency out of a lot of things.

Besides, freshly formed hamburgers just taste better over a good charcoal fire.
