Hasn't been much funny in Marblehead for the past few months. There's been one murder, and a lot of snow complaints. A LOT. Things got funny again today.

Sunday, Feb. 15

At 7:49 a.m., a caller reported their vehicle’s mirror had been clipped.

At 8:47 a.m., a CO issue was reported. Is that a carbon monoside issue, so some other problem? Enquiring minds want to know.

At 10:36 a.m., a woman called to complain that a town plow had just undone the clearing of her driveway that a private plower had recently finished. She said she would send the bill for her private plowing to the town. She called back two hours later to say that the town “sucks” and she would be contacting the governor. My presumption is that she is a recent immigrant from Florida or perhaps Arizona, where snow is nearly unknown. You just have to put up with this stuff. And as for the town "sucking", perhaps that's because there are lots of incomers.

At 10:49 a.m., a town plow driver complained that a resident was blowing the snow from his driveway into the street.

At 11:28 a.m., a caller reported that the driver of a yellow cab stopped in the middle of the causeway, got out of the car and urinated. It would HAVE to be a yellow cab, no?

At 12:13 p.m., a neighbor snow dispute was reported.

At 12:31 p.m., a town employee reported he had been threatened and chased over snow removal by a landscaping crew.

At 1:40 p.m., a 30-foot-by-30-foot hole in the seawall opened. To let all the fruitcakes out?

Monday, Feb. 16

At 7:16 a.m., a woman called after her car became stuck in a snowbank.

At 10:29 a.m., a smashed back window was reported on Laurel Street.

At 11:55 a.m., a plow driver became stuck. He reported that residents were yelling at him as he attempted to shovel himself out.

At 4:03 p.m., a woman reported that a UPS truck slid into her vehicle, damaging it, but the UPS driver left the scene.

At 10:42 p.m., water was “gushing” from a house on Orchard Street.
