Just got an email from my condo complex. They are saying the gas/heating company will be switching from gas to oil because of forecasted temperatures. And that we will be without heat for a while. The heck.

Wasn't aware that there could be gas heating problems in the cold?

They KNEW this shit was coming and decided to wait until NOW to switch over??? What the ever loving fuck is wrong with those people!?!! To leave people without heat right in the fucking middle of hell!! IDIOTS!
 Quoting: ~Jazzy~


Some serious incompetence. This condo complex apparently has huge water pipe, freezing-bursting issues too. Which have happened in much warmer conditions than currently. Heats on for now, i turned that bitch up as Sim suggested ( good call ) At least we are on the top story so we're safe from water leaks.

 Quoting: Master of Nothing


I'm not aware of any preference of heating source re gas versus oil. I've lived in a lot of houses in various climates and have used both without problems. I'm sorry this is happening to you now, glad you have the heat turned up on high before they stop the system. Why they waited until the coldest month of the year to do this is anyone's guess but I'm betting on a combination of stupidity and incompetence.

Stay warm my friend. hugs

Did they realize and predict this level of flooding? It looks like those cars and road are going to be a large block of ice later.
 Quoting: -Haun-


I'm wondering if those cars were all driving at the time because we have parking bans everywhere. You can't park on the street.

just found this poem I wrote about 30 years ago....hf


I feel the grip of the storm
Hanging on to me
My life goes up then down
Like a ship on the raging sea

It's been awhile for my feet
To feel a solid ground
Cold water rushes through my heart
I am sinking, I don't want to drown

It used to be so easy
to abandon this old wreck
Let her fall to the oceans floor
without looking back
Things have changed, I have changed
I feel I know this ship
She handles a storm better than any before
She was built upon respect

Still any vessel without the tools of navigation
Shall surely drift off course
Into cold waters, in need of salvation
Before things get much worse

wisdom brings knowledge
And courage brings strenth
These are the tools for repair
Awareness comes to those who look past the horizon
And believe their already there
Those deceived by what they see
Stay trapped in the storm named despair
 Quoting: -Noahsdad-


Nice poem and ironic timing of the find. hf

NWS Boston Verified account @NWSBoston
26 minutes ago

We appear to be near the record high water level in #Boston. However, it is within a few tenths of an inch and this will need to be confirmed with the NOAA's National Ocean Service (NOS) @noaaocean before we can confirm or deny whether the record was tied or broken
