Years ago when I was still in Maine,I called my Chili Bowl host in Tulsa (We were Knoxville Nationals room mates at the time) in the middle of winter to find out what he had for plans later that year. So he tells me "we're having a blizzard here in Tulsa right now,everything is shut down". So I asked him how much snow does Tulsa get for a blizzard?? Well, he says,you know about 4-5 inches!! I says is that all??? So then he asks me how much snow do we get in Maine to have a blizzard,and I told him at least 2 feet and the wind blowing.

So when ever we got a snowstorm later that winter I always called,and depending on snowfall,I would tell him we were having a "Tulsa Blizzard" or we were having a "Quadruple Tulsa Blizzard" and so on.

Yesterday I called him and told him we were having a "2 1/2 or so Tulsa Blizzard" !!!
