Additionally, AWD and 4WD is only good for moving, for stopping all cars have 4 wheel breaks. Don't drive like a maniac because you think AWD will save you.

As a state employee, I can tell you that many of us are hoping for the Gov Granted Time Off.

Who is excited for the state to be underwhelming in their snow plowing efforts? Sureties in life: death, taxes and CT officials not dedicating enough resources to snow plowing

Reply to Whole Foods by ElizaSeaME

I live in MA and I go to a lot of Whole Foods when I travel to CT, since I don't really know the local stores. I find they are all a little different. For example, the Whole Foods closets to me has a crap meat department and the prepared meals section always looks like I missed a busload of tourists; the trays are empty and the counters are messy. So I go to one much further away and plan errands convenient to that store.

I was just in West Hartford and stopped at one store, looked for some things I normally pick up, and they didn't have it. So I went to my usual place later that day.

I guess I should be happy I live within 10 minutes of 3 different Whole Foods stores?

I didn't know people straight up traveled for groceries. (I know, I know, they sell some specialty items I suppose.)
