Well we got some snow last night.It's going to be COLD, REALLY WINDY,and RAIN,and SNOW.For the next week.Someday I'm moving to place that dose not get below 50 at night.The wind here gets really bad,it's not uncommon to get winds to 50mph in the city.So even if it's ok temp,when the winds blowing you still cant drive the stang.Well ok I know there are alot worst places to be.But thenks for letting me VENT.

Scoop,

Dave, thats not nice to tease me like that.Being only 36 I have many years to work still.But as soon as the kids are set up.You'll be hearing from me.

I love sleepers,its great to see the look one the guys face in your mirror.

Still no snow here in Maine yet. But it is pretty chilly.

You know you live in Maine when it's in the mid-40s and everyone is talking about how warm it is for November.

Steve,
We have been running in the upper 60's low 70's for high temps. Had to put some shorts on today.

Ron,
Work is a four letter word especially when I have the duty this weekend. Makes things a little tough when my parents and sister are here visiting. Of course, we haven't touched the Stangs. To busy playing on M&M and looking through mustang books. Dad just ordered parts to rebuild his power steering and exhaust system on his '66 GT Vert. So we spent plenty of time scanning and printing info on the power steering rebuild. I told him he needs to buy a full set of the Jim Osborn manuals.
Take care Ron and don't get snowed in.

SCOOP, try living in the northeast in Febuary when during the day it is about 15 degrees with a noreaster storm blowing in,it is f****n cold. It did make it up to 60 degrees today even with the clouds. Hope the cold & snow stay away for most of the winter. I hate snow. PS snow is a 4 letter word. HA HA.

Connecticut doesn't get any weather! I used to be in daily contact with CT at my last job, and they never got any snow, or cold. We'd be 20 below and windy and they'd be saying "...It's real cold here! We're down to 35 degrees..."

I 4X4ed up the mountains (Mt. Arrowsmith) and took my daughter skiing yesterday in six inches of snow! Sunny, Cold, clear, crisp, a view of the Georgia Strait and the mainland; what the heck are you guys complaining about?

Me thinks you were talking to the wrong people Steve. We may be a few degrees warmer but we get just as much if not more snow !!!

Not according to the ladies I spoke to in the Stratford offices. They used to actually say "I wish we got as much snow as you guys do!" It was always just raining there while we were playing eskimo patrol.
