And here on the local news, within five minutes, they had gone through the usual "It Sucks Here!" doom and gloom news, so they started talking to kids about how much they were earning to shovel sidewalks/driveways.

We probably won't get a whole snowcalypse, but the news tonight will be full of, "Will Dallas see a snowcalypse!?!" "If Dallas has a snowcalypse, are YOU prepared!?!" "Dallas may not get a snowcalypse, BUT IF WE DID HERE'S HOW THINGS WOULD GO HORRIBLY WRONG!!!!"
"Next up on Crap There's Weather Watch 2007: How to fend off invading Yetis. Do YOU have enough plywood and castor oil? After these messages."
