Oops, wrong blizzard year
Chip,
You're right, it wasn't a typo, but I do remember having trouble keeping that Chevy on the road in bad weather. In 1978 I was driving a '76 Audi Fox which also wasn't too good in the snow. The '82 Monte was even more of a nightmare, and I had a few bad commutes in that car over a few winters along the same route. I guess I had that car on my mind, since with that one I do remember sliding on Route 80 on my way home in a snowstorm and almost kissing the concrete divider. Talk about a white knuckle ride. By then I too was working for MA Bell in Cedar Knolls, 32 miles from home and had no office closings - they expected you at work and even gave you grief if you arrived late despite the road conditions, and of course there was no such thing as an early dismissal.

Reason: grammar
