  1. Highland Falls is in huge trouble. Radar estimate of over 4” on top of the 10” from the other day and still coming down. This is surreal up here. .
  2. I know we will turn the corner this week into winter well into March. Just that you are running with clown maps days in advance since November when NYC Ave high was 50 throwing out accumulations and arguing why with nothing but a way off clown map to back you. You become chicken little after awhile. I know you love snow but the board has to be somewhat fact grounded to prevent it from becoming unreadable.
  3. Which means like every other storm that you insist will lead to accumulations in NYC, there will be almost none.
  4. Yes but in statistical reality to balance out the well above decade of snowfall eventually you have to have below normal winters. It is normal
  5. It rains every year that weekend. Our buses come back with more mud than a pig pen. It's uncanny how that weekend rains almost every yeat
  6. Big difference between people telling you FU to every Cadet saying "thank you Sir". Much more pleasant work environment and more rewarding.
  7. Every year on 9/11 Fox News does a 2 or 3 hr special called Day of Terror. If you ever get to watch it, after the first tower falls and you see the dust filling the street, the first thing they cut to is an interview with me asking me what just happened. I ran into the reporter 2 blocks North as I ran for what I thought was, my life as it started collapsing in front of me. Every year somebody calls me to tell me they just saw me on TV. Try not to think about that day but I guess that interview will follow me as long as there is a Fox News
  8. Thanks. Tell you the truth if I was 20 and in College again today, I don't know if I choose to be a fireman instead. These are sad times regarding community respect for LE in the inner cities.
  9. Actually the Apple may not have fallen far from the tree as you like he promote an uncomfortable environment...
  10. Thanks. 7 minutes from my house. Sure beats 90 min to Chinatown on good day
  11. Would've been special if the kid who never attempted a FG hit it 3 ft left. He would've been treated like a rock star for his 4 years. In that place particularly, that is a good thing.
  12. Yeah. He was an idiot. You don't double down with that. Just say last thing I saw a few days back was a big ugly potato thing that looked like it went to Alibama
  13. Tough guys. This one though is the nicest man you'll ever meet. He's the first African American.
  14. Working in Cadet training at West Point for my retirement career, I am old enough to remember a military purge of top hierarchy in 2008-2009 by the new POTUS who decided that decades of experience was expendable if you didn't have a gentler liberal viewpoint when it came to waging war. This unilateral action was much more dangerous IMO than any removal of an executive branch cabinet member or administration head that was dismissed for political ideology reasons. This also occurred with the dismissal of selected Federal Prosecutors. If we are going to throw around the "F" word, let's not be hypocritical to what recent predecessors partook in.
  15. Maybe Trump threatened to assign them to Muslim Outreach duties in the Middle East like Obama did to NASA.
  16. Doesn't hold a candle to Obama at a banquet honoring a Marine "Corpseman".
  17. I'm with you. It's been sunny and 70s here both days and that's perfect for outdoor activities. Who wants to sit on the deck sweating with 70 dews, I don't get. People who still live at home with their parents and don't worry about paying to have the central AC going constantly I guess.
  18. You have a Merry Christmas and Happy New year too.....
