1
00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>It's night time with Dan Ray. I'm telling you Easy

2
00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Boston's News Radio.

3
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:11.000
<v Speaker 2>All Right, we're gonna stick with this topic. Okay, we

4
00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:15.240
<v Speaker 2>had we thought about doing something dealing with the cost

5
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:19.879
<v Speaker 2>of now television scream streaming, streamflation as we call it,

6
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:24.160
<v Speaker 2>where it's so much more expensive to get things like Netflix,

7
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:28.519
<v Speaker 2>Discovery Plus, Peacock, Disney plus, to name a few. We

8
00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:31.160
<v Speaker 2>going to talk about cord cutting, but I think we're

9
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 2>gonna stick with this throughout the hour, and then at

10
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:36.880
<v Speaker 2>eleven o'clock we will switch at the twentieth hour and

11
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:40.759
<v Speaker 2>we will go to our Super Bowl predictions and we

12
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:45.119
<v Speaker 2>will have a prize available. Okay, so whoever comes close

13
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:47.759
<v Speaker 2>to prognosticating, you got to pick the winner of the game,

14
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:50.960
<v Speaker 2>and then of the group who picks if the Eagles win,

15
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:53.039
<v Speaker 2>the people who choose the Eagles. If the Chiefs win,

16
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 2>the people choose the Chiefs. I'll explain the ground rules

17
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:57.920
<v Speaker 2>after the eleven o'clock news. But you have a chance

18
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:01.280
<v Speaker 2>to compete and have a won't cost you anything, and

19
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:04.120
<v Speaker 2>who knows, you might even win. A nightside, I think

20
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.239
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna put another coffee munk up on the on

21
00:01:06.319 --> 00:01:08.439
<v Speaker 2>the table. We gave away a couple last hour, but

22
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:10.799
<v Speaker 2>we'll make one that people will earn. Okay, going to

23
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.760
<v Speaker 2>take a quick Uh, I think, yeah, we got full lines.

24
00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:17.159
<v Speaker 2>Let's stick with this, Rob. That's that's Rob's call as well.

25
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Let me go next to John and dead him. John,

26
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.439
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you calling back. You were next on nightside. John,

27
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:22.040
<v Speaker 2>go right ahead.

28
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:25.519
<v Speaker 3>Hey, I wonder I gonna mention the high school, but

29
00:01:25.560 --> 00:01:27.319
<v Speaker 3>after the original call, I feel I kind of have to.

30
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:29.680
<v Speaker 3>But A I was a sophomore at Saint colum Kill

31
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:30.719
<v Speaker 3>High School there in Brighton.

32
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.599
<v Speaker 2>How about that you probably knew new Maureen who knows?

33
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 3>Probably did? It wasn't that big a school. Yeah, but

34
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.200
<v Speaker 3>remember having three straight weeks off of school stay which

35
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.159
<v Speaker 3>around the vacation week. And uh, my mother worked at

36
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.719
<v Speaker 3>same as this hospital in Eternity, and we never saw

37
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:54.799
<v Speaker 3>her because nobody could. The nurses couldn't drive to the hospital.

38
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:57.680
<v Speaker 3>She was in walking distance, so she wish she was

39
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.480
<v Speaker 3>there all the time. And never remember my parents from Italy.

40
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:04.000
<v Speaker 3>So my mother, typical time mother would tell her people like, hey,

41
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.040
<v Speaker 3>I got to go home and feed my family, so

42
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.439
<v Speaker 3>they would let her go home. She'd come home, feed us,

43
00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:11.479
<v Speaker 3>maybe take a nap, every now and then and then

44
00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 3>right back there. So we highly saw her, you know,

45
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:17.280
<v Speaker 3>during that time. But and we lived on a corner

46
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 3>where they apparently used to plow all the snow and

47
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:24.479
<v Speaker 3>you couldn't see off the second floor. It was just

48
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:27.240
<v Speaker 3>the mountain of snow in front of the second floor window.

49
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that was see. I saw a snow pile

50
00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:36.680
<v Speaker 2>like that in the well in the winter at twenty fifteen.

51
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 2>They didn't know where to put it. It was just

52
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:41.919
<v Speaker 2>so much. I mean, at one point I think they

53
00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.639
<v Speaker 2>were dumping it into the Atlantic Ocean, but then there

54
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 2>was some question about whether or not it was legal

55
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.159
<v Speaker 2>to dump it into the Atlantic Ocean and all that,

56
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:54.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, so they stopped you, you would know.

57
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.960
<v Speaker 3>To spend the night when I thought it heard over

58
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 3>the years that a lot of weather people during that

59
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:03.840
<v Speaker 3>time we weren't even predicting your store. They were basically

60
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:07.120
<v Speaker 3>saying it was a dusting, was it, Bruce? If I

61
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:12.199
<v Speaker 3>say Bruce Waggler was a w BZ with Bruce.

62
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:16.400
<v Speaker 2>Schwaggler don kent. I think Norm McDonald probably was still

63
00:03:16.400 --> 00:03:19.479
<v Speaker 2>there at the time. It was a Barry Burbank may

64
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 2>have just been starting as a young weather guy. At

65
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>w b Z. They we had another young guy named

66
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.319
<v Speaker 2>Joe Reardon who didn't stay there too long. So and

67
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:31.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, the the other stations had their weather people

68
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:35.479
<v Speaker 2>and you know, they it became pretty competitive in terms

69
00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:38.960
<v Speaker 2>of who predicted the closest. I think Bruce did a

70
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 2>pretty good job on it. Don Kent had no none

71
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.759
<v Speaker 2>of the technical stuff, but Don Kent always seemed to know.

72
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:49.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, Don was was one of the great weather forecasters.

73
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.240
<v Speaker 2>If you I don't know if if you remember him,

74
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.479
<v Speaker 2>but you should remember him if you were sophomore at

75
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:58.560
<v Speaker 2>Saint Column Kills, Don was working bs.

76
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.280
<v Speaker 3>Question was that the pot stands. Did they get stuck overnight?

77
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? They did. I think I think that a lot

78
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:10.159
<v Speaker 2>of them ended up sleeping at the garden because the

79
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.719
<v Speaker 2>storm came in, uh and it really wound up. And

80
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, they they were there at the game. I'm

81
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.800
<v Speaker 2>sure someone will call tonight who were who who were

82
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.360
<v Speaker 2>were at the bean pot game and and we'll tell

83
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:23.639
<v Speaker 2>us some stories about that. But I at least they

84
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:26.240
<v Speaker 2>had food, and they had some heat there, and they

85
00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 2>had places you know, you could look. It was okay,

86
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.720
<v Speaker 2>you could sleep in a chair. I'm sure some decided

87
00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:35.560
<v Speaker 2>to go home. Uh, and a lot of the kids

88
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.800
<v Speaker 2>who would have been there for the bean pot. I

89
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 2>don't know at what point they stopped the MBTA from running,

90
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:46.000
<v Speaker 2>but that's it was. It was an experience I remember

91
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:50.279
<v Speaker 2>as a younger kid. There were snowstorms when I was

92
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:53.879
<v Speaker 2>in elementary school and high school in the fifties and sixties.

93
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:58.319
<v Speaker 2>There seemed to be more snowstorms in that era of

94
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 2>my life. Then, yes, I got older, but the big

95
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:06.360
<v Speaker 2>one was always nineteen seventy eight, the Blizzard of seventy eight.

96
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:10.279
<v Speaker 2>That's for our generation, and I would count you in

97
00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:13.839
<v Speaker 2>our generation. You're a baby boomer technically as well if

98
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.600
<v Speaker 2>you were if you were softmore in high school in seventy.

99
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:22.720
<v Speaker 3>Eight, we were building tunnel. We were little kids building

100
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:26.639
<v Speaker 3>tunnels everywhere just to get to the side fork and

101
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:29.680
<v Speaker 3>definitely different erar.

102
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 2>Good stories, John Good. Good to hear your voice. Please

103
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.319
<v Speaker 2>continue to listen and call Knights at any time. Okay,

104
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:40.319
<v Speaker 2>thank day, Thanks John. Talk to you soon. Let me

105
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:42.040
<v Speaker 2>see why I can get one more in here before

106
00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:43.480
<v Speaker 2>the break. I don't want people to have to wait

107
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:45.959
<v Speaker 2>too long. Let me go to Florence in Groveland. Hi, Florence,

108
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:47.639
<v Speaker 2>you were next on nights. I get you right in

109
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:48.480
<v Speaker 2>here before the break.

110
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 4>How are you, hi, Dan?

111
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:52.279
<v Speaker 5>How are you doing great?

112
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:54.439
<v Speaker 2>Doing great? You were around in seventy eight.

113
00:05:54.480 --> 00:06:01.199
<v Speaker 6>I assume I wanted Dan, I wish live in. We

114
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 6>were living in a condo community in North Andover and

115
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 6>to get to our condo, all the different buildings in there,

116
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:18.360
<v Speaker 6>you had to drive in off the main highway and

117
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 6>down in. It wasn't all level, it went downhill, and

118
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.439
<v Speaker 6>of course my condo was way down the back at

119
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:34.480
<v Speaker 6>the bottom, okay, And when we got that storm, you

120
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:39.920
<v Speaker 6>couldn't get out. You could not get out. You felt trapped,

121
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:45.600
<v Speaker 6>and you couldn't even drive out because the side road

122
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:50.959
<v Speaker 6>along the condos, all the condos was where you go

123
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:54.800
<v Speaker 6>in and out, and you had to wait for their

124
00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:01.879
<v Speaker 6>plow to comment, you know, and plow the roads, and

125
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:07.079
<v Speaker 6>then somebody else coming in and plowing all the walkways

126
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:11.800
<v Speaker 6>where so people could get out of their front door

127
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.279
<v Speaker 6>and try and walk up to the road.

128
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:18.879
<v Speaker 2>All right, So well the circumstances, Look, it was one

129
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:23.519
<v Speaker 2>of those storms that everybody was inconvenienced. How when how

130
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:25.800
<v Speaker 2>long did it take you to finally get outside? After

131
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:29.399
<v Speaker 2>the storm started on Monday, lasted right into Tuesday, well

132
00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:32.480
<v Speaker 2>into Tuesday. When did you finally get out of the house.

133
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 6>About three days? Yeah, about three days?

134
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:37.240
<v Speaker 5>Not bad.

135
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:41.959
<v Speaker 6>And you know, I was going to say, Dan, when

136
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.360
<v Speaker 6>my mother had me, she told me they had a

137
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:50.240
<v Speaker 6>big snowstorm and had a tough time getting her to

138
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:54.720
<v Speaker 6>the hospital to have me. So I have always called

139
00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:03.720
<v Speaker 6>February blizzard month, and if we don't get snow December January.

140
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:08.959
<v Speaker 6>I always tell everybody, you can be sure we're going

141
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.079
<v Speaker 6>to get the snowstorms in February. You cannot get through

142
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:15.079
<v Speaker 6>February without it.

143
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, let me tell you. I don't know if we're

144
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:20.000
<v Speaker 2>going to get a blizzard, but we're going to get

145
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.240
<v Speaker 2>a legitimate snowstorm for what the weather guys. We talked

146
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 2>with Bob Larson last hour. Ye can well see how

147
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.319
<v Speaker 2>it works out. And maybe there'll be a blizzard later

148
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:30.639
<v Speaker 2>on this month. We still have about three weeks left

149
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.879
<v Speaker 2>in November, so you never know. Maybe it's a Valentine's Day.

150
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:35.519
<v Speaker 2>They're talking about a big storm at the end of

151
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:36.159

00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

177
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:56.879
<v Speaker 8>I think it, d Dad, I'm naming you damned the goat.

178
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:03.679
<v Speaker 2>Well, I appreciate the designation. There's there's been a lot

179
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:06.039
<v Speaker 2>of people. I don't know how many people have been

180
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:09.080
<v Speaker 2>on this beat as long as I have. But we're

181
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:12.080
<v Speaker 2>in a we're in year eighteen doing the show and

182
00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:14.559
<v Speaker 2>still enjoying it as much as when we started in

183
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:18.080
<v Speaker 2>twenty oh seven, in large part because of listeners like you, Terry.

184
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:20.080
<v Speaker 2>So I thank you for your loyalty, both as a

185

188
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Well, I know what goat stands for. It's a good thing.

189
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:33.159
<v Speaker 2>It's the greatest of all time.

190
00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:37.919
<v Speaker 8>So as I would never I would never throw anything

191
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:38.879
<v Speaker 8>else your way.

192
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 2>So which big snowstorm do you remember the most? Everybody

193
00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:45.639
<v Speaker 2>is saying the blizzard of seventy eight.

194
00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:50.720
<v Speaker 8>I remember, yeah, I certainly remember that one well. But

195
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:54.840
<v Speaker 8>you know, my first one on keepe Cud was very interesting.

196
00:10:55.279 --> 00:11:00.080
<v Speaker 8>When I first bought my little place down here, everybody

197
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.919
<v Speaker 8>said it never snowed on Cape Caught, you know, that

198
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:08.440
<v Speaker 8>always has been the message. So the first snow storm

199
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:15.399
<v Speaker 8>happened on it was Thanksgiving nineteen eighty nine, and oh

200
00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:20.080
<v Speaker 8>my goodness, we had about twenty inches and I was

201
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:24.840
<v Speaker 8>looking out my picture window and down the street came

202
00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:28.720
<v Speaker 8>this is what they had. Then, this is really true.

203
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:32.639
<v Speaker 8>A station wagon that had a little prow in front

204
00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:37.039
<v Speaker 8>of it trying to prow a main street, and I

205
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:40.480
<v Speaker 8>was like, oh my goodness, you've got to be kidding me.

206
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:44.519
<v Speaker 8>Clearly thinks we're a little better now. But you know,

207
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:49.240
<v Speaker 8>certainly our DTW works very hard and they're very labor

208
00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:53.080
<v Speaker 8>and so and I'm very grateful for them for way

209
00:11:53.120 --> 00:11:55.320
<v Speaker 8>back then. That's what they had.

210
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:56.879
<v Speaker 2>That was it.

211
00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:04.039
<v Speaker 8>Well, that was it. Well, it was comical. It also wasn't.

212
00:12:08.360 --> 00:12:11.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

213
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:15.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well I've seen snowstorms down there in recent years

214
00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:18.720
<v Speaker 2>that were pretty big. In twenty fifteen, you've got we

215
00:12:18.799 --> 00:12:20.480
<v Speaker 2>got a lot of snow in the cape, if you

216
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying this.

217
00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 8>We did yump, Yeah, yeah we did, we did.

218
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:29.559
<v Speaker 2>But it looks like I don't think this would be okay,

219
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:31.519
<v Speaker 2>this one. You're not going to get killed. You're not

220
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.440
<v Speaker 2>going to get killed by this one. As far as

221
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:34.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be.

222
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:40.000
<v Speaker 8>Okay, I honestly would rather a little snow versus ice.

223
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:44.919
<v Speaker 8>Oh yeah, ice, you know, yeah, you know. And this

224
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:48.799
<v Speaker 8>little thing that happened a couple of days ago. You know,

225
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:52.200
<v Speaker 8>I've known three people that sell on their you know,

226
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.559
<v Speaker 8>doing little things like getting out of their vehicle because

227
00:12:56.600 --> 00:13:00.559
<v Speaker 8>they couldn't see that there was ice underneath and foot

228
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:05.919
<v Speaker 8>and you know those things are really tough anyway, and

229
00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:06.679
<v Speaker 8>none of.

230
00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Us are getting any younger. And that's again yeah, absolutely, well, Terry,

231
00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.480
<v Speaker 2>you have a great weekend, stay out of the snow

<v Speaker 2>Let me go. Next we get Alex and Millice in here. Alex,

242
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:42.720
<v Speaker 2>how are you, sir?

243
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:47.279
<v Speaker 9>Hey, how are you doing? Dan Greening? I remember the

244
00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:50.080
<v Speaker 9>blizzard of seventy eight. My dad had the coffee shop

245
00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:55.600
<v Speaker 9>in Dorchester, so we lived in Rossendale and back then,

246
00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:59.919
<v Speaker 9>I guess they had restrictions about driving, but a police

247
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:04.360
<v Speaker 9>police had stopped, uh stopped us. But then they they

248
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:08.440
<v Speaker 9>said that's fine because we had you know, uh serving uh,

249
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:11.240
<v Speaker 9>you know, we had like an establishment. And I can

250
00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:14.639
<v Speaker 9>remember the mound of snow that covered the storefront. It

251
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:18.200
<v Speaker 9>was it's on Dorchester Ave. And I know, I mean,

252
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:20.120
<v Speaker 9>I'm not sure if you know that area. Of Saint

253
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:25.399
<v Speaker 9>Mark's over there, Yeah, on the corner Seemn Roads. And

254
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:28.600
<v Speaker 9>we made a trench to get into the doorway. So

255
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:30.399
<v Speaker 9>reminded me of the Panama Canal.

256
00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:33.320
<v Speaker 2>That's timely.

257
00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.320
<v Speaker 9>And uh we finally opened up and my dad had

258
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:41.399
<v Speaker 9>uh had you know, started uh you know, uh getting

259
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:44.279
<v Speaker 9>the coffee ready, and you know customers were coming in.

260
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:45.799
<v Speaker 3>Uh. And uh.

261
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 9>The other thing about this storm, Uh, I don't think

262
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:51.159
<v Speaker 9>uh you know, I'm not afraid of snow because we

263
00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:53.559
<v Speaker 9>got the snow blow up. But we pre ordered these

264
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:56.399
<v Speaker 9>win They have a wing that found at our church

265
00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:59.600
<v Speaker 9>for Sunday for the game and they're pre paid, so

266
00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:02.159
<v Speaker 9>I hope, uh, you know, they don't cancel that because

267
00:15:02.440 --> 00:15:03.039
<v Speaker 9>I'll be out.

268
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:03.320
<v Speaker 3>Of the wing.

<v Speaker 3>You know.

271
00:15:09.080 --> 00:15:10.919
<v Speaker 2>Who's gonna win? Who's gonna win? Do you think?

272
00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:14.559
<v Speaker 9>I think it's the Eagles. So the reason for my

273
00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:18.320
<v Speaker 9>you know, why I want the Eagles is I'm not

274
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:22.120
<v Speaker 9>a fan of Taylor Swift and associates Taylor Swift with

275

288
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:00.639
<v Speaker 10>but I hate the ice. Well, I been in bed

289
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.799
<v Speaker 10>for two weeks now. I fractured my petella slipping on

290
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:04.600
<v Speaker 10>black ice.

291
00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:11.919
<v Speaker 2>My brother. Let me tell you, I know a little

292
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:17.000
<v Speaker 2>bit about what you're going through. My brother I fractured

293
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:23.639
<v Speaker 2>his kneecap last summer and it's been a long recovery.

294
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:24.679
<v Speaker 2>How did you fracture?

295
00:16:24.720 --> 00:16:24.759
<v Speaker 11>It?

296
00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Just fell on ice.

297
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:29.759
<v Speaker 10>I fell on I saw as I got out of

298
00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:31.559
<v Speaker 10>the car. I even had a cane, and I was

299
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:35.799
<v Speaker 10>going to thees pharmacy and I saw that there was ice,

300
00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 10>but I I didn't see was the black eyes. And

301
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:43.080
<v Speaker 10>when I got to the curb is that's when I

302
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 10>slipped and my knee went right down onto the curb,

303
00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:51.120
<v Speaker 10>right on my patella and and but you know what,

304
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.440
<v Speaker 10>like I have an unbelievable freshold for pain because I

305
00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:58.159
<v Speaker 10>needed help getting out. But when I got up, I

306
00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.320
<v Speaker 10>went into the pharmacy to pick up a prescription and

307
00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:02.919
<v Speaker 10>the woman said, I say, no, I just fell. And

308
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:04.119
<v Speaker 10>she said to me, no, what am? I Let me

309
00:17:04.200 --> 00:17:06.599
<v Speaker 10>get the manager and the cay said to me, is

310
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:08.559
<v Speaker 10>there anything I can do for you? I said, well,

311
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:12.160
<v Speaker 10>I could use a band aid and so, and I

312
00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:14.920
<v Speaker 10>still didn't like do anything. I got in the car,

313
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.400
<v Speaker 10>I drove myself home and then it wasn't until I

314
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.599
<v Speaker 10>was going to go to a WA condo meeting that

315
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:22.759
<v Speaker 10>I realized I couldn't get up.

316
00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and so this happened how long ago? How many days?

317
00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:28.720
<v Speaker 2>How many weeks ago?

318
00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:32.079
<v Speaker 10>Having done the twenty first of January.

319
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you're into this now about two and a

320
00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:39.599
<v Speaker 2>half weeks. What have you had to have surgery yet?

321
00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:44.200
<v Speaker 10>No, they're hoping that I don't like. I have X

322
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:48.039
<v Speaker 10>rays again on the tenth of February, and I'm just

323
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:52.799
<v Speaker 10>in the in the doctor that I saw see somehow,

324
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:55.400
<v Speaker 10>people say to me, I look too good, you know,

325
00:17:55.720 --> 00:18:00.240
<v Speaker 10>like I can't believe I'm seventy six years old. That

326
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:02.599
<v Speaker 10>the guys said to me, Oh, you know, the other

327
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:05.279
<v Speaker 10>guy sent over the X ray. We'll get Joe to

328
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:08.160
<v Speaker 10>come in and put a brace on and I'll see

329
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:13.160
<v Speaker 10>you in three weeks. And and you know I was like, okay,

330
00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:14.440
<v Speaker 10>And then well, if you can.

331
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Avoid the if you can avoid the surgery, obviously, you know,

332
00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:20.119
<v Speaker 2>if you have to have it, you got to have it.

333
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:22.400
<v Speaker 2>But if you if, if they can simply brace it

334
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:25.400
<v Speaker 2>for you and you can nurse it back to hell.

335
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:30.160
<v Speaker 10>Oh definitely, believe me, My dance card is full as

336
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:34.720
<v Speaker 10>far as surgeries go. So between Halven, you know, seven

337
00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:40.759
<v Speaker 10>elbow surgeries fresh gme, no, but I but I do.

338
00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:43.880
<v Speaker 10>I mean, everyone said, gosh, I can't believe that. They

339
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:45.799
<v Speaker 10>and I just said from the neck up, I look

340
00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:46.440
<v Speaker 10>pretty good.

341
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:50.519
<v Speaker 3>But forgetting that happens.

342
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:52.920
<v Speaker 2>To all of us, Alice, and it doesn't this getting

343
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:56.960
<v Speaker 2>old stuff. It's way overrated, way overrated.

344
00:18:57.880 --> 00:18:58.119
<v Speaker 3>But I.

345
00:18:59.839 --> 00:19:03.359
<v Speaker 10>I started looking bad well when I was when I

346
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:06.640
<v Speaker 10>was like forty two, because I was misdiagnosed with something

347
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:10.920
<v Speaker 10>that caused me to have brittle bones. And so but

348
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:13.759
<v Speaker 10>you know what, Dan, I already know where I'm going

349
00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.559
<v Speaker 10>after this life. So I just figure out it's between

350
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:20.839
<v Speaker 10>that now and the time that God decides to take

351
00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:23.359
<v Speaker 10>me home that I have to, you know, get through.

352
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:26.880
<v Speaker 10>So I'm I'm actually, I'm so glad that I have.

353
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:30.440
<v Speaker 10>I have two transistor radios. One of them is on

354
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:35.880
<v Speaker 10>always on DZ, and the other one is sports talk

355
00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:37.880
<v Speaker 10>radio because occasionally.

356
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:38.519
<v Speaker 9>I do have to listen to that.

357
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:41.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, that's okay, as long as you're listening night side,

358
00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:42.960
<v Speaker 2>that's all I can. That's all I ask.

359
00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:47.160
<v Speaker 10>Okay, oh yeah, right, But getting back to Actually, I

360
00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:48.119
<v Speaker 10>was listening to.

361
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:50.920
<v Speaker 3>WBZ during the blizits of seventy eight.

362
00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:54.519
<v Speaker 10>What happens. I was working at Children's Hospital, and I

363
00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:57.759
<v Speaker 10>think that they regret I was working in day surgery

364
00:19:58.119 --> 00:20:02.119
<v Speaker 10>and they sent us home because they really did not

365
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:06.400
<v Speaker 10>know that this bad store. People were beginning to call

366
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:09.200
<v Speaker 10>up and say that they're you know, because they come

367
00:20:09.200 --> 00:20:12.559
<v Speaker 10>from all over the place to come in today surgery

368
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:15.039
<v Speaker 10>or for any of the surgery the day surgery, you

369
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:18.160
<v Speaker 10>come in that morning, and we were getting all these cancelations.

370
00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:21.720
<v Speaker 10>So then they said, wow, the schedule's wiped out, you

371
00:20:21.839 --> 00:20:24.319
<v Speaker 10>might as well go home. Well, I think that they

372
00:20:24.400 --> 00:20:28.079
<v Speaker 10>regret that because you know, other places in the hospital

373
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:33.839
<v Speaker 10>nobody could get back in. So I and I try

374
00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:36.119
<v Speaker 10>to go in. I lived in Peevity, and I lived

375
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:38.799
<v Speaker 10>at like the bottom of a hill. Trying to get

376
00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:43.240
<v Speaker 10>into my driveway and then also my apartment. My my

377
00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:46.119
<v Speaker 10>apartment was like kind of a basement apartment and the

378
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.960
<v Speaker 10>door opened in so I actually had to ask a

379
00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:53.240
<v Speaker 10>neighbor to come so that, you know, like I was

380
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 10>fuck in there because I couldn't get the door open.

381
00:20:57.559 --> 00:21:00.559
<v Speaker 10>And so, but then I was listening to the to

382
00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:03.720
<v Speaker 10>bes and I, you know, at least I didn't lose power.

383
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:07.799
<v Speaker 10>And so they I heard them talking about saying, if

384
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:11.480
<v Speaker 10>you live near a hospital or a nursing home, you know,

385
00:21:12.880 --> 00:21:16.720
<v Speaker 10>you know, you're a healthcare professional. You know, maybe they

386
00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:18.680
<v Speaker 10>could use your help. And I go, well, I don't

387
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:21.720
<v Speaker 10>even have a nurse's uniform because I worked in the OA.

388
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:24.000
<v Speaker 10>And so I said, well, I'm going to go up

389
00:21:24.039 --> 00:21:27.799
<v Speaker 10>to JB. Thomas Hospital, which was two blocks away from me.

390
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:32.240
<v Speaker 10>It took me about an hour to walk up there

391
00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:35.079
<v Speaker 10>because I had to walk in the street. And when

392
00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:37.880
<v Speaker 10>people were talking about it was way it was like

393
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:42.839
<v Speaker 10>at least waste time, or maybe above that, it was dangerous.

394
00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:45.160
<v Speaker 2>It was dangerous that people couldn't see you. They come

395
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:48.400
<v Speaker 2>around the corner and you could be you could be hit. Absolutely,

396
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:53.559
<v Speaker 2>I was. I walked in those streets too, not it was.

397
00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:55.319
<v Speaker 4>I don't think anybody was driving.

398
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:57.559
<v Speaker 10>But but I thought, okay, I'm going to go I'm

399
00:21:57.599 --> 00:22:00.720
<v Speaker 10>going to go up there because you know, I got

400
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:02.680
<v Speaker 10>let off of my other job, so I'm going to

401
00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:06.200
<v Speaker 10>say somebody, I can help somebody. So I get up

402
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:09.640
<v Speaker 10>there and I just said, sorry, I don't have a uniform.

403
00:22:09.680 --> 00:22:11.640
<v Speaker 10>But then they go, no, listen where you know, you

404
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:13.640
<v Speaker 10>got a license. You know you can help us. And

405
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:16.599
<v Speaker 10>then there was a classmate of mine that was working,

406
00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:18.640
<v Speaker 10>and I said, oh, I'm so glad you here because

407
00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:21.400
<v Speaker 10>I said, I don't you know, I've never worked here

408
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:24.519
<v Speaker 10>on Earth, but you know I can, I can do something.

409
00:22:24.519 --> 00:22:26.119
<v Speaker 10>And she and I said, and she goes, well, I

410
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:30.880
<v Speaker 10>don't work here either. You know psychiatry, you know, and

411
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:33.119
<v Speaker 10>so so well, good.

412
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:35.720
<v Speaker 2>For you, good for you. Did you get paid for

413
00:22:35.799 --> 00:22:39.160
<v Speaker 2>that time? Was that volunteer work? Well?

414
00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:42.039
<v Speaker 10>Then they did pay us, because I think they figured

415
00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:43.880
<v Speaker 10>they had to because we were you know, we were

416
00:22:43.920 --> 00:22:47.279
<v Speaker 10>given pain medications and sure, you know, things like that,

417
00:22:47.359 --> 00:22:51.960
<v Speaker 10>so we couldn't be a volunteer, you know, they wouldn't.

418
00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:54.839
<v Speaker 2>I hate to do this see Alice, but I mean

419
00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:57.440

<v Speaker 2>way you go here, either get it done or give

425
00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:13.039

00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:09.759
<v Speaker 3>twenty eighteen. The Eagles won the Super Bowl. Whoa last

449
00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:35.039
<v Speaker 3>was living in Philly then working. I was snowed out

450
00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:39.200
<v Speaker 3>of Philly and had to spend three days in Chicago.

451
00:24:39.359 --> 00:24:44.319
<v Speaker 3>What were you What I was? I was? I was

452
00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:49.039
<v Speaker 3>a reinsurance underwriter for a Dutch reinsurance company for life

453
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:53.240
<v Speaker 3>Life all right. So when you talked medicine or when

454
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.440
<v Speaker 3>you have a doctor on, I'm always listening because that

455
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:02.359
<v Speaker 3>was my profession for fifty years. Now I'm retired. I'm

456
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:05.720
<v Speaker 3>retired here in South Carolina. My daughter lives about twenty

457
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:08.720
<v Speaker 3>minutes away with my grandchildren, and we have them.

458
00:25:09.359 --> 00:25:12.519
<v Speaker 2>We really perfect. Was what was the temperature? Let me

459
00:25:12.559 --> 00:25:14.799
<v Speaker 2>guess you were in the sixties today.

460
00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:18.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, sixties and windy. If you wanted to go to

461
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.359
<v Speaker 3>the beach and fly a kite, you had a great day. Tomorrow.

462
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:24.359
<v Speaker 3>I think we're supposed to be in the seventies. But

463
00:25:24.480 --> 00:25:27.319
<v Speaker 3>I noticed that Boston's going to get a little slammed.

464
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:30.519
<v Speaker 3>And like I said, I know how old you are,

465
00:25:30.599 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 3>so just be careful, will you all?

466
00:25:35.319 --> 00:25:38.200
<v Speaker 2>We're all going to be careful. Oh yeah, I'm still

467
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:41.440
<v Speaker 2>I was in the gym today. I'm I'm in pretty

468
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:47.119
<v Speaker 2>good shape for for all shape. I was shoveling snow

469
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:48.680
<v Speaker 2>this morning. We had a little bit of snow, so

470
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.359
<v Speaker 2>I was out, uh you know, cleaning off driveway this

471
00:25:51.480 --> 00:25:53.519
<v Speaker 2>morning and doing a little bit of light snow and

472
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I'll do something a little bit. Well, yeah, we'll be fine.

473
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:59.039
<v Speaker 2>We will be fine.

474
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:02.559
<v Speaker 3>I really do as you said earlier, getting old ink

475
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:03.200
<v Speaker 3>for the week.

476
00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:07.720

514
00:27:57.480 --> 00:28:00.559
<v Speaker 5>It's okay, Dan, Like you said, when when we were

515
00:28:00.599 --> 00:28:03.759
<v Speaker 5>in school, I remember we have three four snow sums

516
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:07.079
<v Speaker 5>a week and today you don't even see that. And

517
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:10.359
<v Speaker 5>I was only twenty one years old when we had

518
00:28:10.359 --> 00:28:13.279
<v Speaker 5>the blizzard, and I'll never forget that time because we

519
00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:17.599
<v Speaker 5>were outside getting quitting and ready, and when I seen

520
00:28:17.640 --> 00:28:18.880
<v Speaker 5>that snow coming, they said.

521
00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:20.279
<v Speaker 11>It was only gonna be a little bit. I said,

522
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:22.160
<v Speaker 11>this is not gonna be a little bit. This is

523
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:24.680
<v Speaker 11>gonna be more than a little bit. And it took

524
00:28:24.759 --> 00:28:27.160
<v Speaker 11>us like a couple hours of cleaning our own yard.

525
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:30.240
<v Speaker 11>And one of our garages had a flat roof. We

526
00:28:30.359 --> 00:28:33.680
<v Speaker 11>wrapped their shove almost snow off the roof. So my

527
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:36.279
<v Speaker 11>dad was cleaning out the yard and most of the

528
00:28:36.319 --> 00:28:37.519
<v Speaker 11>time he says, where am I gonna go?

529
00:28:37.559 --> 00:28:40.759
<v Speaker 5>I'm not going anywhere. So he made a pad down

530
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:42.680
<v Speaker 5>from the front of our house to the one part

531
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:45.559
<v Speaker 5>of the main road. And it was like, I don't know,

532
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:48.319
<v Speaker 5>two o'clock in the morning and I was watching loose.

533
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:50.200
<v Speaker 5>I looked out of the woodow. I said, yeah, dad,

534
00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:52.759
<v Speaker 5>look it. I don't know how they did it. The

535
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:55.640
<v Speaker 5>fightingmen were running down through that snow on the bargain,

536
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:01.680
<v Speaker 5>and it came to find out that one of our

537
00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:06.240
<v Speaker 5>clients down the street had a heart attack, and I

538
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:08.519
<v Speaker 5>guess they couldn't find a machine, so there was a

539
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:11.200
<v Speaker 5>machine that came later behind them. When they got to

540
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:13.319
<v Speaker 5>the front of our house, it was shocked that it

541
00:29:13.359 --> 00:29:15.880
<v Speaker 5>was plowed, and they said, if we hadn't done that,

542
00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:18.759
<v Speaker 5>the husband would have died. So they put it right

543
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:23.359
<v Speaker 5>up on us and the firemen. And another thing.

544
00:29:23.599 --> 00:29:28.799
<v Speaker 2>You guys, you guys, that's hey. I'm I'm glad your

545
00:29:28.880 --> 00:29:30.799
<v Speaker 2>dad was on the ground and you guys were up

546
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:33.279
<v Speaker 2>on the roof because you wouldn't want it to reverse.

547
00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:35.200
<v Speaker 2>You were good kids to be doing that for your dad.

548
00:29:36.400 --> 00:29:39.119
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, yeah, I did a lot, believe me. When

549
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:40.799
<v Speaker 5>I was a young kid and I wasn't afaid to

550
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 5>do it. And even then my dad even put me

551
00:29:46.200 --> 00:29:48.319
<v Speaker 5>in a large truck call of snow, we'll hollow stow

552
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:51.359
<v Speaker 5>for the city looting, and we were getting all the

553
00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:54.680
<v Speaker 5>snow and dumb it at the Cold Springs playground. Yeah,

554
00:29:55.720 --> 00:30:00.200
<v Speaker 5>and then I was loaded with snow and of the

555
00:30:00.279 --> 00:30:03.920
<v Speaker 5>truck's lots of break. But I know how to handle myself.

556
00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:06.440
<v Speaker 5>When I stopped that truck and I call my dad

557
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:08.440
<v Speaker 5>and then my dad put me behind the back. Gough.

598
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:05.279
<v Speaker 12>and he was a doctor. He tried walking to the

599
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:07.880
<v Speaker 12>talk in the hospital. He was trying to got Boss

600
00:32:07.920 --> 00:32:11.160
<v Speaker 12>Street going to kind of go to work, and didn't

601
00:32:11.160 --> 00:32:13.480
<v Speaker 12>he have a heart attack and die and snow bank?

602
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:19.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, no, you see it old right by

603
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:19.680
<v Speaker 2>my house.

604
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:23.359
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, they said fireman had to come down on ledgs

605
00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:26.440
<v Speaker 12>and everything and hold how old?

606
00:32:26.519 --> 00:32:31.759
<v Speaker 2>So he died during during the blizzard, the blizzard.

607
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:33.319
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, he fell into a snow bank and had a

608
00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:33.880
<v Speaker 12>hot attack.

609
00:32:35.359 --> 00:32:37.599
<v Speaker 2>How old a gentleman was he at the time? If

610
00:32:37.640 --> 00:32:39.519
<v Speaker 2>I could ask Christine, roughly.

611
00:32:39.880 --> 00:32:41.319
<v Speaker 12>Like sixty six?

612
00:32:41.519 --> 00:32:45.079
<v Speaker 3>I said, Oh my goodness, what a loss.

613
00:32:45.799 --> 00:32:51.000
<v Speaker 12>Yeah, that was the first time I've ever It was devastating.

614
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:51.279
<v Speaker 1>You know.

615
00:32:51.640 --> 00:32:53.920
<v Speaker 12>The fireman couldn't even get the fire trucks down the

616
00:32:53.960 --> 00:32:57.240
<v Speaker 12>street or anything because the clouds couldn't come down because

617
00:32:57.240 --> 00:33:00.720
<v Speaker 12>it was on a dead end street. All our names

618
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:03.480
<v Speaker 12>were helping each other. We all had sleds and some

619
00:33:03.599 --> 00:33:06.079
<v Speaker 12>people com polls. I'm going up and down on you

620
00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:11.359
<v Speaker 12>know this, you know, getting chopping for everybody, back and forth.

621
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 12>I remember it was quite something.

622
00:33:14.759 --> 00:33:17.720
<v Speaker 2>What a traumatic experience for for you know, you would

623
00:33:17.720 --> 00:33:20.400
<v Speaker 2>have been seven years old at the time. What a

624
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:24.839
<v Speaker 2>traumatic experience. But there's a guy who obviously was not

625
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:27.039
<v Speaker 2>going to allow anything to prevent him from getting to

626
00:33:27.079 --> 00:33:30.279
<v Speaker 2>where he needed to be. Yeah, you know, it's a

627
00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:33.559
<v Speaker 2>tragic it's a tragic story, but it's inspirational. Folks from

628
00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:37.160
<v Speaker 2>that generation. They they they weren't going to be stopped.

629
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:38.680
<v Speaker 2>He was a doctor and he knew he had a

630
00:33:38.759 --> 00:33:42.079
<v Speaker 2>job to do. But what a sad boy. Yeah, that's

631
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:45.559
<v Speaker 2>that's a that is an absolute downer. But thanks for

<v Speaker 2>sharing the story because it just shows you know what

633
00:33:48.640 --> 00:33:52.319

634
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:55.440

655
00:34:48.000 --> 00:34:50.440

656
00:34:50.519 --> 00:34:52.199

657
00:34:52.239 --> 00:34:55.199

658
00:34:55.239 --> 00:34:58.159
<v Speaker 4>and bring medications to houses, so they were really happy

659
00:34:58.159 --> 00:34:59.800
<v Speaker 4>they were doing that, but they weren't pleased that we're

660

00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Good friend John in Brookline. How are you, sir?

693
00:36:17.519 --> 00:36:20.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm doing well? Three things seconds to bring up quick

694
00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:24.039
<v Speaker 3>about the blizzard of seventy eight. Sure, I was shoveling

695
00:36:24.199 --> 00:36:26.159
<v Speaker 3>snow in front of my house and asked for long

696
00:36:26.239 --> 00:36:30.000
<v Speaker 3>avenue and a police officer. We didn't get along anyway.

697
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:33.880
<v Speaker 3>You're gonna arrest me for throwing snow in the street,

698
00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:38.360
<v Speaker 3>And I responded by saying, well, I only can think

699
00:36:38.400 --> 00:36:41.159
<v Speaker 3>of one other place to throw it. And that was

700
00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:44.159
<v Speaker 3>the end of that argument. But then down comes a tank,

701
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:48.920
<v Speaker 3>a National Guard tank, taking the Duke in town to

702
00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:53.480
<v Speaker 3>Governor de Gacas. Oh my goodness, it was so he

703
00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:57.000
<v Speaker 3>was used to the tanks, as we know. He wasn't

704
00:36:57.039 --> 00:36:59.360
<v Speaker 3>in the tank. He was in a in a National

705
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:00.519
<v Speaker 3>guid truck behind it.

706
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:04.239
<v Speaker 2>Didn't He definitely looked better than he looked in when

707
00:37:04.280 --> 00:37:07.320
<v Speaker 2>he was in the tank. I think it was in Michigan, in.

708
00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:12.039
<v Speaker 3>Perry Street and come down there. And then the third

709
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:15.599
<v Speaker 3>thing was two days after the storm, they had some

710
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:19.679
<v Speaker 3>sort of a group, an environmental group, stopping the trucks

711
00:37:19.719 --> 00:37:23.320
<v Speaker 3>from dumping snow town trucks in the Muddy River.

712
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:27.119
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, I mean I remember they were dumping snow

713
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:29.800
<v Speaker 2>into the Atlantic Ocean and they had environmental groups who

714
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.000
<v Speaker 2>were upset about that as well.

715
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:33.639
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I remember that big view. But it was

716
00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:36.960
<v Speaker 3>quite a storm. But so that's I know that he

717
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:38.719
<v Speaker 3>was not in the tank. He was in the truck

718
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:39.199
<v Speaker 3>behind it.

719
00:37:39.280 --> 00:37:42.400
<v Speaker 2>But well, those that's great stories. That's great. Yeah. I

720
00:37:42.440 --> 00:37:44.760
<v Speaker 2>interviewed him in his house on Perry Street. He's still

721
00:37:44.760 --> 00:37:46.719
<v Speaker 2>doing fine. I saw a picture.

722
00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:50.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, ninety years old. He's still walking around the town.

723
00:37:50.400 --> 00:37:51.400
<v Speaker 3>He does very well.

724
00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I think he's not I think he's ninety two. I

725
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:57.000
<v Speaker 2>think he will turn ninety two this fall.

726
00:37:57.039 --> 00:38:02.079
<v Speaker 3>He's Yeah, he's still picking up papers and stuff like that.

727
00:38:02.079 --> 00:38:05.079
<v Speaker 2>That's okay. He was the real deal.

728
00:38:05.159 --> 00:38:05.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

729
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:09.679
<v Speaker 2>Well, hey, John, appreciate your call. Thank you, my friend.

734
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:22.239
<v Speaker 7>all Janet.

735
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Janet, welcome.

736
00:38:24.960 --> 00:38:27.280
<v Speaker 7>Welcome, thank you. So I have a great story to tell,

737
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:31.280
<v Speaker 7>so sure. My grandfather, my grandfather, Grandpa Sullivan, bought a

738
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:35.039
<v Speaker 7>house on seven thousand Situate with his World War One

739
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:39.559
<v Speaker 7>bonus money, and we lost everything in the blizzard of

740
00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:43.920
<v Speaker 7>seventy eight. We have pictures. We saw the water coming up.

741
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:48.400
<v Speaker 7>Everything was destroyed in our house, and our house actually

742
00:38:48.440 --> 00:38:54.119
<v Speaker 7>floated into our backyard. My dad couldn't find anybody to

743
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:57.280
<v Speaker 7>fix our house. He walked, he watched it. He saw

744
00:38:57.360 --> 00:39:00.960
<v Speaker 7>everybody kind of doing everything the same high. He said,

745
00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:04.280
<v Speaker 7>something's not right with this. And he had to wait

746
00:39:04.280 --> 00:39:08.599
<v Speaker 7>a while to get somebody to fix our house. And

747
00:39:09.119 --> 00:39:12.440
