Boston weather babes gleefully predict the end

Column by Michael Graham of the Boston Herald where the Mayor has issued a edict requiring everyone to stay home: As I write this, I’m watching a network of weather babes gleefully announcing that we will all soon be crushed to death by an avalanche of unstoppable ice pouring down from the heavens. Perhaps they’ll be wrong, and the snow will miss Greater Boston. Or perhaps they are right and, as a Democratic congressman predicted for the island of Guam not long ago, Boston will be “capsized” beneath a mountain of snow. But either way — whether you’re reading this and mocking the pre-storm panic, or you’ve been forced to burn this paper as a heat source out of sheer desperation — I have one simple request. Shut the (bleep) up about the Blizzard of ’78.  Michael Graham
