Hating the Snow

I'm sitting here hating the snow today and I cam e across this site that I thought was pretty cool. Just thought I'd post it for anyone else who's stuck wishing they were somewhere warmer.

In New England it's snowed for a total of about thirty seconds so far this season. Has to be a new record for least amount of snow received in CT by December 8th...

Last night I put my studded winter tires on and insulated my veggie oil lines. Bring it on, I love the snow!

If I can be on my boat in a tshirt, I'd just as soon have snow up to my waist

We have only had a dusting in Ohio. I am ready for it now. Plows are mounted to ATV and tractor, cars are waxed, skiis are ready to go on airplane, new clips are ready to mount ski rack to Audi, snowmobile is fueled and ready.

Bring it on, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

About the only thing I like about the snow anymore is snowboarding. Here in Michigan it just seems to stick around too long.

Man, I really hate this time of year. MI in the winter is unpleasant, at best. Maybe I'll be able to find a job in a warmer part of the country and move out of here once and for all... I want to deive the Porsche year-'round.

I was just thinking how fun it is to drive in the snow this afternoon. Clicked off the stability control and tried out my new Michelin all-season tires - I had Blizzaks last year. The all-seasons REALLY suck. Nothing quite like flying into a parking lot with FWD and using the handbrake to slide into one's parking slot though!

I'm sure this fun will all wear off in about a week and I'll be ready for a trip to AZ.

I hope to spend exactly 10 days this winter in snow - skiing at Big Bear. ~2 hours drive and back home to more liveable conditions

+1. If I want to see snow, I'll turn my head to the east. If for some crazy reason I actually want to be IN it, I'll go to it. I don't want it coming to me. Ever. Again.
