Snowmageddon? Think again

Check out this list of historical snowfalls in the Midatlantic states.

Notable Snowstorms and Blizzards



Listening to the media you would think that the area has never experienced snow like it is currently experiencing. What it boils down to is that our current modes of transportation cannot deal with this issue. Add to this our dependence on power supplied through lines and it becomes a monster of a storm instead of a normal event for the region.

Walgreens as a Sex Shop?

oh this is a great article. who knew walgreens could be so much fun!


I was going in to pick up some allergy meds, but I got distracted — very distracted, in fact – when I started to notice a funny pattern.

First, there is a surprising variety of "personal massagers." "Quiet and powerful ones" in a Skittles-worthy array of colors. Multiple surface versions that boast the ability to be recharged. The "Comet Massager" that looks like it’s related to a Pixar space creature. The little guy even lights up.

If feet are your thing, there’s the foot spa and the foot massager. Or if you want to massage other parts, you can try out the "soothing five motor cushion massager." Saddle up! One massager comes complete with a warmer, and several of them have all sorts of interesting nubs and bumps and edges. Come on, that is no back massager.
