How is it that you have snow in phoenix?

That was pretty funny wasn't it Crono? there were so many morons on the road!

I'm also a wierdo who likes to shovel snow, but it's not just the rareity of it. I grew up north of Boston, and I enjoyed it even then.

I pity da foo who thinks Detroit is in Canada. lol

Tracer: Yeah it was funny as hell. It's like "hmm, I'm not moving . .. I know I'll HOLD the pedal down, maybe that will work . . . hmm doesn't seem to be working, there's a lot of smoke, I'll try it a little longer see if it does anything later . . . hmm . . . down to the rims . . . maybe the hot metal will melt the ice . . ." seriously A lot of people in Oregon do NOT know how to drive, such as going to Portland on 26 while they're doing construction. . . . .why are people going 35? I mean there is a 2 foot barrier between the road and the construction . . . they couldn't break though even if they wanted. lol

But the thing that pissed me off the most durring the whole "Winter Storm 2004" bull, was Vira Cats . . . I just think she's a bitch. (She's the mayor of Portland for those who have no idea what I'm talking about). There's no particular reason why I think she's a bitch . . . she just is. that bitch. [addsig]

I pay no attention whatsoever to local politics. *shrugs*

What I thought was most entertaining is portlands complete inability to deal with the weather. I can understand not clearing all the roads, but they didn't even clear I-5 or 84!

Tracer: I know . . . I swear we have morons running certain parts of our state.

Brasso: Yeah, Oregon in general is pretty liberal . . . unless you talk to the hicks who live in Tillimook. . . .

However, most people who walk down the street are social assholes, at least you don't hear men yelling at women and grabbing them while they walk down the street, I mean women run half of Oregon, so lol.

Also, wanna know why they didn't start widening 26 until late '03? The last transmission director we had wanted the "max" (A light rail train that runs from several parts of oregon to other parts) to gain more money, so he wanted to make traffic WORSE so it would force people to ride the train. Now heres the thing. . .the max costs about the same as parking downtown, and it's slower then driving (even in traffic) . . . so why the hell would I take it?? His other reasoning was for people who shop! yeah because you always want to goto a furniture store (such as Ethan Alan, not that I shop there) and lug it back on a packed train with smelly construction workers and little dumb ass skaters who never take a shower to "rebel".

You know what you should think when you drive past a newly built skate park? "Look at all those individuals . . . . oh wait" the damn things are packed . . . wtf are they rebelling against? rebelling? I'm confused.

[/rant] I appologize for the ranting, hopfully it was entertaining. [addsig]

Snowflakes in photographs look strange because they reflect the flash.

It hasn't properly snowed for years here in the UK. Sure we've had a bit here and there but it's usually gone by the next day.

I remember maybe about 10 years ago that when it snowed it snowed - not as bad as what you've got at the mo Andrew, but enough to stop you getting to work. Once, we had no power and no water cos of the snow, and we all had to go to the local swimming pool to get water from it - which we then had to boil (if we had gas cookers, heh).

Wouldn't mind a bit of snow right now though, work is a bit crap and I need an excuse to stay in bed and wallow in self-pity

i have little interest in reading 3 pages about snowfall, especially since i just spent 3 days driving across it to Michigan and back

it was a mess out there people, and if you don't have to travel, please stay home, snows and/or ice in the levels i saw kill people.

stay home, drink something warm, or something that simulates warmth and enjoy the view, preferably from behind a double pane of glass
