Denver Weather Report: It's snowing.
Contributed by: Brendan Leonard/YourHub.com   on 10/26/2006

"What's the weather like? You got a window? Open it!"
-- Robin Williams as Adrian Cronauer in Good Morning, Vietnam

Say what you will about power to the people and that the government doesn't ever do anything for the average Joe. If the sidewalks in my neighborhood are any indicator, my tax dollars are in good hands.

I started what is normally a 30-minute walk to work this morning and discovered the people in my neighborhood weren't really getting after it as far as shoveling sidewalks was concerned. I can't really blame them; when it's dumping snow, why shovel the walk two or three times, when you could just wait until it stops and shovel it once?

So, I half-skated and plodded through about four inches of snow, jumping puddles and piles of slush, and navigating around sagging tree branchesall the way to the Capitol building, where the sidewalk had been cleared minutes before. It took me an hour to get to work.

The good news? I did not get splashed with gutter water by passing cars, although there were many opportunities.

How was your commute?
