Fuckin BRUTAL. Have not seen in 20 years. But let me relate:
I think I was 46. The coldest day in CHICA history. The temp was 14 below and wind chill of minus 36. Youusses all member,propably not as you all young SHITS not born yet.
So it a SATURDAY and already by this time CHICA had about 40 inches of snow. I tells me customer I gonna work a half day and leave at 12 noon. I wears for dressing absoulty nuttin as customers crank up heat to stay warm and I sweat to death when workin. And me truck has a very fine heater. Sooes I leave at noon and ARLINGTON TRACKSIDE is on me way home. I arrives bout 1PM. I'm wearin blue jeans and a hooded sweatshirt and a wind breaker. No gloves and runnin shoes. Sooesses I goes upstaires and starts to imbibe and bet. And I CAN'T lose. Me wallet is bulgin with moola and I have to use me front and pack pockets to stash cash.
So I decide at about 6:30 PM to call it QUITS. Time to head home. I says to meself,JOHHNNY BOY don't drive,take a cab. This back in day when ARLINGTON,boomin. RESTURANT downstaires has a recepshionist that seats and will call a cab for one. I tells her,call me one. She goes they quite busy and they will arrive in 1/2 hour. So I goes and stands in mini-lobby waitin. Were it be warm.
So ARLINGTON also at time has a big room on first floor where they hold weddin receptions. So I'm standin off to side,dressed like a PIG and in walks the BEST MAN and his girlfriend or wife and he drunk and he says to JOHN FRANK ARMY: Can't have you standin here when the GROOM and his LADY walk in. JOHN FRANK ARMY says: Can you repeat what you just stated. HE doooeess. MR.FRANK graps the fuck and shoves him against the wall. LISTEN FUC: Don't ever FUC with me. I'm waitin for a CAB. Him and his other go rushin in and get SECURITY. They comes and says I must wait outside. I explains I'M waitin for CAB and wind chill is 37 below zero. Now JOHN FRANK ARMY pissed. HE determined not to drive. I tells them FUC YOU,I will walk home. That 22 miles away. And off I go.
UNbelievable. I treks. No one out that night drivin. and there no were to walk but on road as the sides were loaded up by snow plows. Talk bout frezzin to death. 3 peoples in cars came by walkin along wilderness roads and not a one stopped to offer me a ride. No one was out drivin that night.
So I made it 19 miles and me goal was to get 21 where there a 7-11 and I could get a cup of coffee. At mile 19,the BARRINGTON HILLS police department stopped me and said what the FUC you doin. They goes you can't walk on a state highway. I goes FUC OFF. They throws me in back of squad and takes me to station. They goes NO ONE is out walkin on a night like this. They want me ID. I goes I'm to frozen to reach into pocket to get it. They do. I explains what happened at TRACKSIDE and SECURITY kicked me out while waitin for CAB. I says run thru my pockets and see all the cash I got includin me wallet.
They GOES; NO way in hell you walked 19 miles in this weather,dressed the way you are. They calls SECURITY at ARLINGTON and finds the TRUTH. They come back to me and proclaim.YOU weren't lyin,YOU THE MIRICLE MAN. NO one could have done what you just did. I tell them. I'M ARMY,and all ARMY can do it. They drove me the rest of way home and knocked on me door. ANDREA answers and says,WHAT HE DO KNOW. They goes: THE IMPOSSIBLE.I crawed into bed and needed 3 comforters on top to heat up. Should have headed to ER. ANDREA next afternoon goes: Wonder if you will make the news. I goes,Not if RLD has anythin to say bout it.

I don't think I could do that again NOW. Don't have to. ARLINGTON gone,thanks to CHURCHILL.

We are closing in on almost 30 inches by midnight tonight. Then it clears out. I can't remember a storm that lasted this long. Just got my driveway plowed by a neighbor. To much snow for us to shovel.

Tough beat on the wire. $8 place

   Sorry bro

I'm so exhausted I put the wrong emoji there before 

Watching it live, I thought he held. Tough beat. Still a good pick.

There are not many tracks tonight. Will that lead to a good Monday handle?
WP #8 in the opener. Was blocked and looked to have some trot.
