Always amazes me how many idiots you see driving the rear wheel drive 5.0's or any other comparable beast. They actually look suprised when they're stuck. Everywhere I look there's one in a ditch, or blocking traffic. Morons. - Sun, 26 Nov 2006 1:06pm

It was kind of weird waking up from a crazy night to a strange, white world. For a second I questioned "where am I?", but then I soon realized I wasn't on some planet but at home surrounded by snow.... So I just got back from a walk in it; I just couldn't resist. Got soaked and all but it was well worth it.... Next time I'm wearing my combat boots out there though... so my feet won't hurt like hell.

Damn I wanna challenge someone to a vicious snowball fight. - Sun, 26 Nov 2006 5:10pm

I saw a drunk guy walking down the middle of Craigflower tonight. He was singing Roy Orbison songs and picking fights with trucks that couldn't get around him. Then he started crying out about how no one understands him. So I decided to send a few snowballs his direction. Ha! My poor wife, apparently I am quite immature. - Mon, 27 Nov 2006 11:48pm

You should have seen the looks I got from people for playing in the snow alone while I waited for the bus yesterday. Sheeeeesh.. I finally have real snowboots (it was all the talk about galloshes on here!) and damnit, I'm gonna play!
I will however, need to get some proper waterproof mitts in order to be more prepared for those impromptu snow fights.. rotten kids. :)

I managed to get myself involved in a snowball fight between strangers today. There was three people (two adults and a little girl), two passer-byers with suitcases, and a couple pushing a stroller and me. Was a quick one, but one thing was clear....I can't throw a snowball if it was worth my life. - Wed, 29 Nov 2006 10:18pm

Very cool pic. Tonight on my way to my door (which is down a concrete tile hill) I just squatted down and let gravity do the walking. I had to grab on to random things to get UP it today. I really need to talk to my landlord about the miracle of salt. - Sat, 2 Dec 2006 1:33am
