Departing oakland at about 12:15 am and getting where ever the fuck we can get.

    I think we have most people's phone numbers. Tthis should be interesting. If you can think of anything else we should bring (besides lube - we thought of that) please chime in. Hopefully our planes will land. Basom is so ready to kill it, it's not even funny.

    I have lots of floor space at my apartment. Just thought I'd put the offer up in case you doods come through Sacramento.

    Dammit, I want to ski Kirkwood on Saturday, but none of my friends are doing a day trip. Sunday I'm busy doing other stuff...I think. If anyone is doing a day trip, PM me.

    Oh, and screw this weather. It's not happening.

    9 PM. Still working. Going to work all night. If all goes to plan I think I can pull a day trip out of this...

    I should finish work tomorrow @ 4 or so. Jam home for quick combat nap. I've now got a buddy's suby so i'll caravan with Team Core starting with Arthur Gonzarelli around 9:30.

    Hopefully get to Tahoe before sun rises. Ski whatever is closest to where we are stuck on the highway. Mainline redbull, call AAA, turn around and head for San Francisco.

    More as this develops. Safe travels to everyone.
    You know, there's like a butt-load of gangs at this school. This one gang kept wanting me to join because I'm pretty good with a bowstaff.

    I guess you need the subie so you can get back? This blows. Can't you sabatoge the deal or something?

    Did you draw straws to see who gets to play the part of the inflatable fuck-pig, or will you all be taking turns at it?

    Morning update from elevation 6300' = heavy heavy snow. Repeat of last wekened this time when seeing across the parking lot was an impossibility. Radar is sold green and yellow all the way offshore.

    Caltrans says:
    [IN THE SACRAMENTO VALLEY & SIERRA NEVADA]
    CHAINS ARE REQUIRED ON ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT 4-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLES WITH SNOW
    TIRES ON ALL 4 WHEELS FROM 3 MI EAST OF GOLD RUN (PLACER CO) TO THE NEVADA
    STATE LINE

    EASTBOUND TRUCKS ARE BEING SCREENED AT APPLEGATE (PLACER CO) - DRIVERS MUST
    HAVE MAXIMUM CHAINS IN THEIR POSSESSION IN ORDER TO PROCEED - PERMIT LOADS ARE
    PROHIBITED

    WESTBOUND TRUCKS ARE BEING SCREENED 5 MI WEST OF RENO (WASHOE CO) - DRIVERS
    MUST HAVE MAXIMUM CHAINS IN THEIR POSSESSION IN ORDER TO PROCEED - PERMIT LOADS
    ARE PROHIBITED
    So no real restrictions on passenger cars yet. As hardrider says, it has begun. (But why must he keep shooting his dog?)

    good luck with that. You'll have a much easier time getting crack.

    One option - if you can convince/bribe/beg Shoe to pick some up today, you can get them when you stop by in Folsom (sorry Shoe...).

    Doubt it would come with chains. I don't think the rental agencies like them cuz they can mess up the car if put on wrong. Not as much as sliding off an embankment, though.

    When I picked up the rental in Spokane for the BC Summit, I had to drive back and ask for an ice scraper!!

    On the good side of the weather news. The NWS has been reducing their predected wind speeds but not their snow totals.....

    The only chains these guys are in gettin in Folsom is if they get locked up in Folsom State somehow on their way through....[/cue Johnny Cash]

    Actually, I might have chains already sittin around that fit. I used to have a Pathfinder...when I sold it, I kept the chains just so I had them to throw in the back of the Subie if I ever got asked if I was carrying them. I never, never have to throw them on (even in last weekends monster), but just use 'em to get through checkpoints. I wonder if they would fit the Exped? Even if not, you can just carry them around in case you get asked if you are carrying them at a checkpoint. Usually, they just nod and let you through, but ya never know...

    However, if you actually do want chains for actual use, drop me a PM, and I can grab some today...cost + 80% special just for you guys.

    hertz doesn't do chains or snowtires. and they are fucking us a bit on mileage too since all of their big rigs are being taken, which sucks. but since we are going where 5 to 8 feet of snow may fall, you could tell me that you were going to put my balls in a blender and i wouldn't get that bummed out.

    i will get chains here in chi-town for the rig today. what info do you need for that? tire size?

    shoe, you da mang. if i can't find chains, may we borrow yours for visual aid purposes?
