gwynhefarOk, now I'm actually ticked off.
This is final exam week at LSU. I kept waiting for an announcement that the University was closed -- after all, all the other schools in a three parish radius have already closed. Instead, what I get is a text message saying that the University will remain open, and exams will continue as scheduled.
WTF?!?!?!!?!
It's *snowing*. In Baton Rouge, Louisiana. There is snow *on the ground* and *ON THE STREETS*. People in Louisiana don't know how to drive in the snow. People I know who have lived here for 40 years have *NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT*
[Oh, and a branch just feel off a tree onto my neighbour's car. At least it wasn't a very big branch -- doesn't look like it really damaged the car. Anyway, back to my rant.]
All the bridges across the Mississippi have been closed by state police due to ICY CONDITIONS. And yet the University is still holding exams. Guess if you live west of the river you're shit out of luck.
There will be deaths from this, mark my words.
