Post by: ConfusedUs on 2003-11-20, 06:53
Who's ready for some snow!? I want to go sledding, as I've never been.

/me prays for snow

/me has seen snow once in his lifetime.

The temperature is getting cooler at least.  I love cool weather.  :D  I'm also extremely glad Arizona is dry as Florida's humidity causes the cold to gnaw away at your bones. :P

On a sidenote, I wonder if Pho ever puts on a sweater...

Hehehe.  First fallen and fresh snow is beautiful.  The novelty seems to wear off for me after a few months though...  Have fun sledding!  Don't forget the hot cocoa!

Aye. I like white Christmas', but other than that, I don't care for it much after spending most of my life here. See, here in Nebraska, there's several types of snow, and ALL of them suck to drive in. I'm surprised we haven't had snow yet. We've been having some really weird weather this November. Today, it was in the 60s, when the wind chill should be about that, only negative. And Monday I believe it was, there was a tornado that touched down near Bennet which is about 15 miles from here and we had pouring rain and hail. Talk about freaky.

But have fun sledding. And remember, you can't come home til you can no longer feel your legs. =P

Birds don't have sweat glands.

Nah, there's just one type of snow - soft, white death.  It's the ice that gets you.
I always have to laugh when I hear reports of cities in the south (or coastal areas I guess for that matter)  that shut down after getting a "blizzard" of 1 " and people are crashing into each other by the hundreds cause they can't figure out they shouldn't drive 75 MPH.
In DC the city shuts down for half an inch.

Phoenix:  Er... actually I was more in reference to your constantly being engulfed in fire and how snow would affect you, if at all.

General:  We never had snow to slide on back in Florida... all we had was mud. :P  The one time I did see snow I couldn't really go sledding simply because the area I was residing in wasn't particularly hilly.

I lived in Florida when I was younger. Loved the weather.

Dna ... hehe, yeah. I always loved that too. Or when ppl freak out when they see hail for the 1st time, I go out and play in that shit. What's the worst is when it snows, but it's not quite cold enough so it melts, and then freezes overnight. Then it snows the slushy now (where it semi melts) on top of the ice the next day b/c it's still not quite cold enough. Talk about fun driving times !

As long as you stay away from the curbs.  Of course, even they're not enough to keep you on the roads sometimes.
I think I still owe someone a new lawn, from back when I was in high school.
