I have to tell you, I got a real chuckle over all of my old high school classmates in Indiana, Virgina, North Carolina, etc. being so tickled about a white Christmas.<br /><br />In keeping with the Whiners blog - you darned flatlanders know nuttin' about bad weather!Just My 2¢https://www.blogger.com/profile/01870976662057532723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-59919050336364127342009-12-28T21:50:35.110-05:002009-12-28T21:50:35.110-05:00Nice one.

Must be a dairy, but even those I worked for as a kid usually had a bull around. In that case, you go feed your cattle. Cattle. "Livestock" also works. -- LyleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-25902773537094296672009-12-28T08:08:12.633-05:002009-12-28T08:08:12.633-05:00I don't get it either.

I sold my compact pickup and bought an SUV; I refuse to use CFLs; I fly airplanes burning leaded gas; I'm even going to go buy a chainsaw with a (gasp!) two-stroke engine!

We had snow forecast about a week ago and I went out and put already-chained-up tires on one of the cars just so I wouldn't have to get up the next morning and hang iron while the nasty white stuff was coming down. Gone are the days, I guess, of just jumpin' on the car and seein' how far I could drive before I had to get out the chains and adjusters. Or take my ol' '70 Bronco and challenge myself to drive the whole six miles to work without havin' to get out and lock the hubs.<br />Makes me realize that just 'cause it's raining today doesn't mean that I can't go out to the gully behind the house and try out the two new magazines for my Beretta.<br /><br />wv: pantiess- I shouldn't get mine in a twist over a little cold and wet weather.<br /><br />Rob J.
