Moderator: Edi
Too much, there's frozen snow from a week ago on the ground, it's cold outside, I hate it. UGH!

Just the right amount of snow....none at all.aerius wrote:Well, it's been snowing for almost 36 hours now where I live, and the snow is still coming down good. I am now happy, it's cold, it's windy, and it's snowing good. And my GF's sister is still stuck at my house but that's another story. I haven't seen this much snow in over 10 years, this is wonderful. Finally, a real winter. So...how much snow are you guys getting?

It's more than enough snow, enough that I couldn't get home and had to stay with my sister's BF. And for letting me stay over at his place and eating all his food I have to help him shovel his driveway. And it's a 2 car driveway..bastard...

Yes, the world covered in ice is very beautiful under the streetlights.
Until, of course, the weight of the ice on the power lines knocks out all the electricity. Which seems possible tonight, the way it's been sleeting.

They've been giving out weather forcasts saying "It's going to snow tomorrow!" for like the past 5 days. I am most unimpressed as it usualy snows on Dartmoor anywhere between Yule and Feburary and also because I like snow, it is fun to leave in my sisters bed and melt so when she looks in, she blames the dog.
Don't look at me like that.
I can be a complete child, but atleast I admit it.

I love snow. I want to move to Quebec so I can live in it most of the time and learn how to speak French fluently at the same time. RAH!!

Oh I hate it, woke up this morning and over the night it's been snowing like hell, real fun to get up at 07:30AM and shuffle snow in order to get the car out.Zaia wrote:I love snow.

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."
Where you are do they schedule enough regular school days so you can have a few snow days without having to make them up in the spring?Fighter of Foo wrote: enough for a Snow Day!!!
Thanks to snow and ice, I had no school today. bwahaah!
One of my schools had 9 snow days one year. While it did snow a lot the main problem was because most of the kids lived out of town and had to be bused in.
We had to make up some of the days during spring break and some more at the end of the school year.

There's an easy way out of that. Tell him he isn't getting any closer to a threesome with you and your sister by making you shovel snow.muse wrote:It's more than enough snow, enough that I couldn't get home and had to stay with my sister's BF.

Notice that I didn't say promise him anything just let him know this isn't a mark in his favor.

Whoo. a couple of mm of snow on the roofs. none on the grounds. Typical.
