WHOA!!!!!!!!1 NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!! IN ALL MY BLOODY YEARS OF GOING THERE, NO MATTER HOW BAD IT GOT 97-01, IT NEVER CLOSED, NOT EVEN FOR 1/2 A DAY!!!! NO CLASSES CANCELLED!!!!
And today, for a measly 15 cm + 5 overnight?!! You've got to be kidding me. GO and TTC are fully operational!!!!
Wow, I think there's something going on behind the scenes there...even YORK is open, I believe. |

Weird that they just made the decision around 10:30. |
oh ok, I checked the news at 7 am and all these other unis were named but not U of T or York. That's pretty messed up. |

Wow. Never in 8 years eh? Jesus, though I can only recall a few times UW closing in the winter months, NEVER EVER in 8 years seems surprising!
haha thanks for sharing that tidbit Margs.
Hope your day improves.
I'm highly disappointed w/ things in Collingwood -- we got jack ... naught save for a wee bit of snow... 2-3 cms? Jack all. :(
I wanted a proper Canadian winter day!! :happy2: |

Usually one school closing every 2 yrs or so... Last one there was hardly any snow. Someone flinched big time on that one.
Ah well. Pre drinking for tonight's PRoom show has begun already ;) |

It didn't take me that much longer to get to work... but going home might be different. We are stopping at 1pm. YEAH! |
Your and everyone else's company, lol.
Last storm, people left early with their managers' support to avoid the traffic. Guess what.... employees of ALL COMPANIES left early, making a 2pm drive more hazardous than any other time.
I left at 5pm and I breezed home. |
