On the radio they were saying we should name the storm after him. He'd probably be so excited.

How did this go viral?

I guess just people sharing it on facebook/twitter?? The video is one day old and has 106,000 views! So basically everyone in the city has watched it

I think it was 99.1 that had a contest to name the storm and they decided on "Frankie's Blizzard". He must be excited They should have hired him to do live weather updates!! Another favourite entry of mine was some man who called in and said, "I think we should name the storm Judy after my ex-wife, because it is mean, nasty and big around!"

one guy said we should call it the Dunderdale ... it's coming, there's nothing we can do about it, it will cause a big mess, we will have to clean up after it and there's nothing we can do but ride it out. (something to that affect)

not necessarily MY opinion but it caught the guys off guard and was funny even if it's not actually true

I've warmed up to her since her Muskrat Falls speech. It's easy to forget, sometimes, that - whatever our political views - we're all Newfoundlanders. Seeing how beaming she was, especially when she hinted at righting an historical injustice, made me happy.

Still, her government hasn't done much else I agree with.

Yeah she's a bigillion times better than any other present alternative ..

but anyways like I said it's not my opinion it's just funny because there are people who think like that. I mean it is a BIG job and it's hard when the ones you need to suck up to, everyone who votes you in hates them lol and there are tough decisions to be made as well .. yes she is MUCH closer to harper than I'd ever agree with but she is the poor soul who had to some after our Danny

Well, you see, the guy on the right used to have the tallest building. But now the guy on the left has the tallest. But that guy's building is cheating, really, because it's just a big spire. But, technically, it's enough to make that one taller. So he's laughing, and the other guy is crying over losing the title.

I understood signals building thing, I just didn't get how it related to a snowbank, haha

I think the rainbow cat is like "Neon Cat" or something?? It's some youtube thing I think. Anyway, I'm off to bed as well...





Or am I just lurking in the shadows or a snowbank near you??
