Bleh. You guys should see what we Saskatchewanians do when you get 30cm (1 foot) of snow! We go driving in it! Yes, absolutely. Even I do. We're canucks after all and we go through the harshest winters than the rest of Canada. Luckily, we aren't the ones with record snowfalls but got dang close to record cold temperatures in December. Ouch! I hate frostbites but it's fun when you can do all kinds of things with snow....... don't even think about it! LOL

Hahaha. Had a funny discussion with a customer today about how guys like yourselves go through the shut down at the "threat" of snow. Man, I never had a good laugh in a long time about snow discussions. Maybe you guys should come to the heart of winter in Canada which is right here in Saskatchewan, or better yet, Manitoba. If you can survive our six months of winter, you can definitely survive it down south.

Hahaha. I saw something that I really admired on the CNN news today. Someone driving their halfton dragging a person on a toboggan behind them. That was classic man!

By the way, I want all your freakin' snow! You guys can have our ice fog. You'll see what it did to my darn truck!

Global warming? Heck, we still get -45 temperatures here in Saskatchewan. Global climate change does make sense because there is a shift in weather patterns but Saskatchewan has always had screwed up weather because of where we are located in North America. We've had summer during winter and winter during summer. 09 got pretty close to that. We had 30 degrees (95 for you across the border) in the middle of September and October which was super rare. Our summer months of June, July and August was rather very cooled this year. Never got above 25 once. There were three nights we actually went below zero. BBBRRRR!!!!

Right now, there is a major fluctuation in temperature hitting both end of the scales for winter temperatures. We dipped to the -30s and now we ended up at near zero in places of Saskatchewan. Heck, right now, I'm reading that it's -9 in the area I deliever to which is in the very southeast corner of the province and it's -16 here. Normally, it's a 3 degree difference, not 7!! LOL Gotta love what mother nature can do to people.

We got about 4" of snow down here in the ATL yesterday and that is all that's been on the TV since yesterday afternoon. Having lived in northern Illinois it cracks me up to see how these southerners are with the threat of a "snow storm".

BTW, getting ready to go play my first game in the snow. It should be wet and cold so it'll probably be an abbreviated day of play. Hopefully the paint is ok and my gun works well.
