Canadian Winters

Well, say, about 10000 truckloads (pure snow!) which we can easily accomodate. But you have to supply the trucks!

Of course it's colder! I'm live closer to the North Pole!!!


Oh!
Regarding Peaches4U's photo, that is not a very flattering photo BJ! Hee, hee, hee!



Uguel

 

For anyone that knows what snow snakes are that is a good reason not to sit to long with your pants down. In a cold outhouse.

 

It may not be flattering, but it is true, been there, done that. Except for actually freezing of course. If you have never experienced it, I hope you never have to, especially where you live.

 

I know what you mean!
It's like that when we go skiing at the National Park!
No women would dare put on any lipstick in there!

Uguel

 

Wouldn't the "lipstick" be called a "popsicle" by then?

 

I might have to pass on the 10000 truck loads of snow. No trucks just a loader. Since I can't have snow I might as well dig a swimming hole

Quite right!

ANW, you'd be better off with just one load of snow.
We pay to get rid of it here!



Uguel

 

I guess I could just have a snowball fight with one load.

 

Uguel - it may not be flattering but it sure brought back some memories for him.

 

hmmm.....

 

just see the difference

 

*smartass*

 

Yes it did. More like a nightmare!

Well. it's starting to feel like a Canadian Winter around here. This whole last week our daytime highs have only been from 0 to +15F, with windchills of -20 to -30F. Lows between 0 to -10F. Just had ice and then 5" of snow on the 25th. Saturday night, Sunday, and Monday expecting major snow storm. Snowfall amounts of up to 16"+. Another major snow storm coming Wednesday. No snowfall prediction for that one yet, but their saying that it will probably be more powerful and dump more than the first one. Since I work for a municipality plowing snow, I probably won't be around much for about a week, maybe 2 after Sat. night. Yes, I'm the lousy bast_rd that plows the snow back into your driveway after you've just spent 4 hours shoveling it out of your driveway. Sorry. It's just my job man.

So my friends, Wish me luck.
Pray that nobody foolish,
Pulls out in front of my truck.
If you see my coming down the road,
Pushing snow with a heavy load.
Please don't pull out in front of me.
It's too hard to stop, let alone see.
Just wait for me to pass you by,
Then in my tracks you may safely drive.
On the salt and sand that I will spread,
Then your car, won't act like like a sled.
Just wait for me and take your time,
My 20 ton truck can't stop on a dime.
I'd hate to hurt any of you,
It's something I couldn't live through.








Oh, P.S. To all my special Canadian friends. I know you're all very kind hearted and generous and love to share and everything, but sharing your weather, Gheeeeeezzzzz!!

 

Well, BJ, with the connections you have at work, can you arrange a good deal for me to purchase a snowplow for my backyard?

Seriously though, be careful out there and come back as soon as you can safely manage.

Here is a small selection of snow plows. From low tech

 

To high tech.

 

Now you speak!
The high tech one is the right for the job here!


Uguel

 

I had a hunch that would be the one you might like to have. The other one didn't seem to be real practical for heavy snow. Besides being a lot of work.

 

Well since our Indian friend wimped out on driving the "Snowcat", I'll drive the plow. I can plow the snow off a sleeping dogs back at 50MPH and not even wake him up!

 

Here he is.

 

OK folks. You can stop sharing now. I'm really ready for it to get warm. Really I am. I wouldn't joke about something like this. Please, take the cold weather back. I'll give you some yummy cookies. Really I will. Peaches, I know you like cookies. Uguel, I'll give you enough so that you can have some for yourself and the puppy too! I bet he just loves cookies, and he's really cute. And I wont give NewGuy any. Really, I promise. Guys? guys? hello? is anybody there? Please, please with sugar and fleas? I'll do anything. Guys?----Hello?----Ahh come on guys----wake up----please?----I'm freezing----I feel like a beetlecicle----I can't even go to the bathroom without freezing my you know what off----It's warmer in my freezer that it is outside----The flue from my furnace has icecicles frozen on it----People?----Hello?----I know you're out there----Uguel?----Peaches?----snowbound?----Acadia? Man I'm really sorry for turning you into all of those things. Really I am. I wont do it again. It took me 2 hours to type this because my fingers are so cold. Please Guys----guys?----Hello?----Ahh come on, quit being so mean----I'll be good from now on ----I promise----I'm begging----HELP!!!

 

Good Morning BJ


It is -19C here in Toronto this morning. We would still like to share this glorious weather with our american friends.

Especially the ones in Kansas.

Would u like more?




snowbound

 

AAAAAAAHHHHH!!! NO NO No more. Please not that. Name your price. I'm desperate. I just want the cold and snow to go away. I'll be your best friend. I'll help you to moderate the forum. I'll punish the bad posters so it'll be less work for you. Please, take it away!

EDIT: I'll even bow down to you and kiss your ahh umm feet.

 

Here in southwest Oklahoma we got four inches of snow day before yesterday it was really pretty. We don't get that much snow very often. Just to rub it in to you folks that have a full blown winter going on our snow was beautiful but the next morning it was all gone all four inches. That is the way to enjoy snow. (24hrs)
