    I want at least one foot + snowstorm this winter. So far, it doesn't look like we're getting it. :(

    I need a day off work, darn it!
    Ludicrous gibs!

    I am with you. I finally said to hell with shovelling snow this year and purchased a snowblower. $600 later, we have had about 2" of snow in the last 2 months.....

    That would have made some decent audio upgrades if I would have just spent it differently. I want some snow to show for my effort dammit.....

    Ugh. I miss Spokane a lot at times, but driving around in the snow was never fun. The South Hill was a big **** in its own during the winter.

    Well fortunately for me I am the project manager so I don't have to physically be there.

    I've checked with my tech who landed today and the trucking company. Everything looks like is still on track. We're installing Seattle's Best Coffee self service Kiosks into Albertsons stores in Spokane and Coeur D'Alene areas.

    LOL.....yeah, looks like she soaked the wall and melted a good size area of snow. Well I guess she'd held it for awhile. Would you want to have to go outside to pee when it's 34 freakin' degrees? Your stream could freeze and the resulting icycle could stab you in the **** :eek:

    Woke up this morning, looked out the window and saw it was raining. Okay, that's cool... got around, stepped outside, nearly busted my **** walking down the front porch stairs. Damn freezing rain. Drive to work was only slightly interesting. Didn't even have to put it in 4wd, and with no weight in the back, you can tell there wasn't much to speak of. Still, I'm sure there will be multiple accidents due to people being IDIOTS and not knowing how to drive when it's the least bit slippery. And this is PA we're talking about! It happens every year, not just some freak occurance every 15 years or something....
