Losing ... all ... motivation ...

[Than_Bogan]

So much effing snow around here. Really just makes me want to hide inside and play video games.

 

Trying to imagine summer buoys to help me get over to the gym.

 

Sorta working.

[Horton]

What is this "snow" you speak of?

[GOODESkier]

Yes, please, send that snow west. BAD-SNOWLESS-BLEAK NON-WINTER here in the Northwest.......

[Horton]

80 here today

I like to think of shoveling snow as a good cross training work out. Like skiing it's something you can't get in the gym. It's been working well lately considering we've had over 40" fall in the past week. I was pretty fried by last night though after clearing a space on the curb for the garbage and recycle containers.

Snowed 5"" of powder yesterday. I am trying to figure out how to handle an Arctic Cat F1000 without hurting myself!!

@horton calls my cell last week to leave me a message about his skiing in the CA sunshine in a shorty, while Western WA is grey and raining and we're wearing spacesuits... it's just not fair.......

[MISkier]

If you're talking about snow, the direct or eventual water source of many ski lakes, the supply that does not require pumps, water diversion/lease expense, op-ed articles, government permission, or special interest approval, then I am for it.

 

But if you're talking about snow, the breaker of backs, destroyer of automobiles, interruptor of water ski season, and general purveyor of icy discomfort, then I am against it.

@Klindy we got around 40" of snow here in the past 7 days. It set all time records for snow fall in a week. I am with @Than_Bogan. The snow shoveling does get you sweating though.

In Boston we have nowhere to put the snow ,you shovel it somewhere and then someone shovels it back. 55" in 10 days. Beer consumption has sky rocketed though that may also be down to a last minute interception. Holding out for first weekend in March and Orlando trip.

[rayn]

Tell me about it.

 

I had a trade show I was attending in Miami: Monday night - Wednesday afternoon. So I had my ski all packed ready to go to McGinnis Monday morning, Wed afternoon and Thursday morning. My flight from Boston to Ft lauderdale at 6am got cancelled because of the @#$% snow, I kept trying to get out on Monday until finally at midnight they cancelled the flight I was on because the didn't have enough flight attendants to go. No other options would get me there in time for a meaning appearance at the show and then I saw it is highly likely T-Storms on Thursday anyway.

 

Talk about depressing. It was within my grasp. But NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

By the way, for those of you that did not recognize any familiarity of my previous position on snow, I must give original credit for its form to a lawmaker profiled in the link below:

Pardon my departure from the topic.

Believe me I am very sick of all this snow as I sit stuck up here my senior year at school in central Maine and all I can think about is when I graduate moving south or west

[Dano]

@Horton that pic looks like paradise. You be making a lot of ballers jealous. Especially us north of the border.

[Than_Bogan]

@MISkier I appreciate you pretending there was a "topic" here...

[slvrbulit]

After shoveling all the snow and drinking way to much beer I than spent way to much money buying new ski equipment that I probably didn't need.

[Than_Bogan]

@zyokes Any chance you're at Bowdoin? I highly recommend taking Bill Silver's occasionally-offered class if you have the slightest interest in how computers really work and how to take advantage of that as a programmer. (WHAT? YOU DON'T!!?? INCONCEIVABLE!)

[zyokes]

@Than_Bogan nope I'm up at the University of Maine in Orono
