Woman: Oh, I wish that bus would come! My feet

are freezing!

Man: Have you been waiting long?

Man: I've been calling the weather report all day since it started to snow. They're still predicting one or (to) two inches but we've got at least three inches already. My shoes are full of snow.

Woman: Well, that's typical. Remember last year when they predicted four inches of snow and we ended up with four feet?

Man: I wasn't here last year, but we had the same thing in Detroit. We were supposed to get a little rain one night, but when we woke up, guess what? There was six inches of snow on the ground and it was still coming down hard. I didn't go to work that day.

Woman: That sounds wonderful. Oh, look, there's the bus. Thanks anyway.

Man: That's okay. Another time. Boy, am I glad to see that bus!
