Would Plaster City work? Very little snow here but damn it's cold. At least we will get our early Christmas present late next week. All I want for Christmas is a new Gordini!

What the hell is "snowed in".....?.........we went to get wood for smokin sausage 30 inches of it to walk through. Roads with no salt or plows......still made it to watch "bowling". I mean unless your door opens out and you are a nudist....you're not snowed in. And I made it out to uncle Nicks house to get my miter saw back to do frames for these pirints .........and that guy is what most folks call "avoidable".

I'm sorry if my post seemed insensitive to all of you folks snowed in right now. I was out doing my Christmas shopping in shorts and flip flops today and... oh snap there I go again!

It's ok Will. All this weather does is intensify my desire to move back to Arizona. BTW, what's with y'all wearing Parkas when it's fifty degrees in December.. that's T-shirt weather.

Fine, I'll admit it was in the 30's last week and I was whining like a little bitch.

Shorts and T-shirt for me today also. But, it has been mid 20's at night for over a week. My avocado tree suffered lots of damage, but it does most years and come back.

Don't bury your beer in the snow to keep it from freezing that's a myth.. plus if you have too many you don't find it until spring.

I read somewhere that if too many entries finish the world's toughest race for the next year the ASO charts a more difficult course. Last year had a higher percentage of finishers than usual...
