    ....You haul. Since just before Christmas we have had about 43" of snow here in the shadow of the Rockies. Almost unheard of. BTW, I'll even help load it.

    It looked pretty crazy when I flew over it too...such a definitive demarcation line....snow...no snow...none of this gradual blending.

    Waited to be sure, but since it is 01/06/07 here and 60*F, no thanks. If I never see another winter like this in Syracuse, I will at elast have the pleasant memories of this one :)

    Since i was told by my bone doc that i couldn;t ski any more about 10yrs ago, no use for that white crap :)

    Up here we haven't had ANY snow, in fact, I think it's only gone below 0 a couple of times, and thats at night. Unheard of here in T.O. I think BCGray is getting just deserts out there for bashing us. :cry :p :D

    Hey BirdBath here in Lotus Land(Nirvana) aka B.C. the vestal ladies peel my grapes fresh from the vines every morning, and just be Thankful that we were gracious enough to send our "Excess" warm weather your way:D :cool You and your daughter were started to look just a little pasty;) LOL

    Just wish you characters back East hadn't been so greedy, and sent such strong winds are way. Dang it blew some of my coconuts of the tree's:cry

    I think BC has been known to slightly distort the truth on occasion:p . In this part of Lotus Land, we've been getting snow every week, with more expected later today. I'll take a picture later. Hasn't been as cold as usual. Many vehicles in the ditches and several accidents. People need to get winter tires, on all four wheels.

    Now as you all know by now; Sibeer is my neighbour and lives on the other side of the Mountains from moi. But you see his time is one hour ahead of ours, because they don’t know whether they are Albertans or British Columbians, now due to this confusion the Weather Gods have chosen to give Sibeer and his clan Alberta weather as punishment, sorry no Coconuts for our Sibeer in the “East” Kootenays:p LOL …….Hey Sibeer Happy New Year to you and yours, from the gang in the “West” Kootenays.:cool

    Now BirdBath is another story; he lives “Back East” in the Big TO, now being the kind, generous, intelligent soul I am, I will simply say that the folks that live there are just a few bricks short of a full load. So no Coconuts for you too BirdBath, and I’ll give you your “Cold” weather back.:p :D Heya BirdBrain Happy New Year to you and yours, from the good folks here in Nirvana/Lotus Land:cool

    Ehh Strange1, you can keep your snow this year. We're due for a big one sooner or later in Quebec though thanks for the offer. ;)

    Just to clear up any confusion, BCGray lives between the Selkirk Mountain Range to the west, and the Purcell Range to the east. I live between the Purcells to the west and the Rocky Mountains to the east. The Continental Divide splits the Rocky Mountains and is also the border between British Columbia and Alberta, so there is half a mountain range between Alberta and me, which unfortunately isn't enough to keep the Albertans out.:D Now it is true that our weather is similar to Alberta's (colder in the winter, hotter in the summer than the rest of BC), and it's true that we share the time zone with Alberta (we only do that so it doesn't get dark by 4:00PM like where BCGray lives) but we certainly know that we are NOT ALBERTANS:puke ;) .
    Anyways, Happy New Year to you too BCGray, and everyone else.
    I think this cartoon pretty much sums up this thread.

    this seems to fit better here then in the jokes



    As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out
    of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker
    lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are
    losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down
    the street.

    When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again.
    She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the
    trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says
    brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your
    load!"

    Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the
    street.

    At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of
    breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck
    door. The trucker rolls down the window. Again she says " Hi, my name
    is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"


    When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light.
    When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs
    back to the blonde. He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it,
    he says...

    "Hi, my name is Kevin, it's winter in Minnesota and I'm driving the
    SALT TRUCK!"
