What snow? [:'(]

EXACTLY!

everyone keeps predicting we are going to get socked this year because of la ninya but so far its not been much more than a light dusting.

And yet, Seattle was nearly paralyzed by that light dusting...[8|]

Hey, I'm a southern boy and I laugh at the way people freak out in the snow around here. You'd think they were living in Mobile or something, the way they have no clue as to how to handle the snow.

"Gee, the roads are treacherous. I think that I'll just get out and walk, leaving my car parked right in the middle of the freeway..."

When I was a student at UGA and we had one of our rare snowfalls some kids were throwing snowballs at passing cars and were arrested by the campus cops. The charge? "Making terroristic threats"!!!

Oh woof ! Imagine how I feel. Move from Cali to Mobile Bay [edit] in the bloody "sunbelt" - hello ! [] and there's frost (and ice) on the back deck. Abby the Hamster dog gets me up at 0:dark:30 going lick, lick, gotta pee dad, lick, lick, so out we go and woof, it's a sudden awakening and 'hello, why am I skiding toward the edge of the deck?' and 'hello, why has my vascular system suddenly shut down?'. Meanwhile, Abby is wandering through all the crispy grass going "Daddy, I gotta poo, what IS this stuff ? can I dump on it ?"

Hi all,

ORIGINAL: sprior

BTW, we here change our car tires to "winter" tires in early November (from "summer" tires). IIRC there is no such switch in England (and the "winter" tires are virtually unknown). Is this true / correct?

That is correct. I never switched in Chicago and nobody I knew did either.

No winter tires in Chicago?!?!?

But the winters and snow there are regular and harsh! [X(]


Leo "Apollo11"

Pfft....Chicago winters are only harsh if you're a fairy. [;)]

Morning Tithe...

Have a good day, T. I know. Tall order. Remember it is Friday. [;)]

Work day from HELL is FINALLY over. It's been one of those days where no matter how hard you work, you don't seem to get a damn thing done.[:@]

Well, dude, that's where you're wrong. You managed to A. Stay employed for next week, B. Get paid for the day's work for today and C. Go home after work. Pretty good.

Hey, a UNP tithe por moi...[&o]

Leo: I wanted to say thanks to that heads up re: the NASA finding. It was fascinating reading the eventually press release and very interesting build up to the release. Thanks for bringing it to my / our attention.

Sorry if my post offended you. It was an attempt at humor. Spent many years at school in Maine and Massachusetts. Spent lots of time and bucks in Summit County. In Cali, Big Bear was 2 hours away and Mammoth was a weekend trip. Alta, Utah was a cheap plane ride away. Know about snow.

Again, sorry if my post offended you. If it was the hamster dog's pooping or peeing that offended you, I'm sure she will be sufficiently chastised.

Enjoyed the story. Reminds me of an incident with my former dog when he saw snow for the first time. Good memories.

I can relate....i nearly killed myself yesterday morning stepping out onto our frost covered back deck. Almost ended up flat on my back....all to let the ***** pitbull out.

Speaking of pitbull......latest incident....somehow Miss "DUH" 2010 managed to lock herself in our bathroom and proceeded to attempt to chew her way out. Fortunately i was the first to come home as GF would have committed Pitbullicide had she been the one to see the wood splinters and fragments all over the floor. Scratch one door and door frame.

I have no idea who that is or what he's done.

NBA player who went from Cleveland to Miami (can't really blame him for geographical/terrain reasons). The manner in which he did it was the issue more than the actual changing of teams.

The Nike ad campaign and the spoofs of it are unintentionally hilarious for the former and just hilarious for the latter.

If only i'd been blessed with the ability to dribble. I'd be a billionaire.
