Posted By: <b>Jeff O</b><p>And a happy Festivus to you as well, Rob. <br><br>I started my feat of strength early, attacking my ice-filled gutters after Seattle got dumped on with 9.5" of snow in about four days. I know, I know... those of you in the Midwest and Northeast are unimpressed. But I can promise you that this town goes into lockdown after the first flake falls so hey, cut us a break.<br><br>I will be airing grievences at work tomorrow.<br><br>Jeff
