    I was born in a small town no one has heard of called Silsbee. 7.7 square miles. There was a former WWE wrestler, a WNBA player, and an NFL player born there.

    It's pretty wild. Looks like pure snow but it's straight ice. Need crampons to walk on the sidewalks.

    In Oregon City my driveway is a sheet of ice. Had to go pick up my mother's medication, didn't go last night hoping it would thaw today.

    Since we're out we're picking up a few other things... Stay home if you can.

    Also, Mount Shasta has UFOs. It's crazy there at night.

    Had some pipes burst in the other wing of my building. Flooded 8-12 apartments in that wing. Water has been turned off. Not a biggie for me. My apartment is safe. Feel bad for those whose apartments got flooded. They all had to leave.

    Apparently, the pipes burst in an empty apartment on the top floor. Got to cold and blam. The fire fighter I talked too said he had been dealing with the same thing all day, and it was always high up leaking down in to other apartments.

    Wow, glad your apartment didn't get flooded.

    Me too.

    Alarm went on and we got out. My wife and son sat in the car. I came back in a few times to check the apartment and get a few things just in case. I offered to help try and save things for those whose apartments got flooded. There was just a bunch of water cascading down the side of the building.

    Had to wait forever for the fire department and longer for management. The fire department couldn't get in for a while to turn off the water. Tennant's were trying to save their pets. It was crazy.

    Hope everyone is doing good.
    I walked in the door around 3:30 last night from the airport.
    My son walked in at 4:30 from LA!
    Whole family is together finally.

    sidenote: it kinda funny to see NBA players attempting to scrape ice if their Range Rovers and Bentleys for the first time. Most has never used an ice scraper before… HA!
