Snowpocalypse2 is good one; another is Snoverkill, heard on Kojo Nnamdi’s program, followed by a Rockville booster saying we’ll pull through this because our great community is pulling together. Oh yes, and you don’t need togo out to buy bottled water, because our city water is the best. Yay, Mayor!
