My total once came to $19.95 and the cashier jokingly said "good year". I mentioned how it snowed a lot that year and caused the local middle school to collapse. I went on about how the town changed a lot since then.

The cashier hesitated for a moment and said "I wasn't born yet". Suddenly, my hair all turned gray.

That was about 10 years ago now

Ouch, that's rough. It's like you can hear your own bones crumbling to dust.

'95 was good, so I'm told, but the '98 ice storm was a doozy

Oh boy. Let me tell you. It was.

Nothing like walking uphill to school in a blizzard, just to find out the school is closed, then having to walk uphill in a blizzard to get home.
