i love the ------- snow.

last year it snowed here in portland pretty well for a couple weeks. I was driving a geo metro hatch with studs on the front and that car was this ---- in the snow. I had so much fun.

I would roll thru the unpopulated sidestreets and just set the ebrake and leave it, slo mo drifting simulation kinda.

Actually, I just started a business with a partner, we opened up about 7 months ago. I work there 7 days a week, Monday through Thursday 11-8, Fri and Sat 10-9 and Sunday 11-6. Except for today that is, lol. So, it is kind of necessary that she remain working where she is, because I am taking home no check from the business, everything goes back into it. So I guess your idea is not too far off.

Actually, that is the only thing I do like about the snow. My wife and I were coming home last night(in seperate cars) and I called her on her cell, told her to pay attention to a certain road when she got to it. She called me back a few minutes later and said she saw my tracks and I hate some pretty good ones going. I pretty much locked the ebrake up down the entire length of the road and just kept swinging the car side to side, it was a blast. But that is totally differnent than being stuck in this ----.

Say hello to Larry Bird :P

RUSTENBURG holy crap.

my mother grew up there for most of her life. I spent seven years of mine in johannesburg.

the only memories of anything remotely like snow was hail, and even that was meagre.

such a shock living on the we(s)t coast and overnight getting 36". totalled about 40" that week.

where'd the sun go?
