Default This Winter WEATHER SUCKS!

Nine inches of snow on Veteran's Day, then 9 degrees F this morning. Not even close to actual Winter yet...... sucks!

Every mother's idiot son/daughter forgot how to drive when roads are covered in snow causing accidents galore. Some clown in my neighborhood bounced of the bridge guard rail leaving our street, then another one did it again???? My buddy in the body shop business is lining up work.

To make things more fun, my winter beater has tires that are toast. Ordered a new set of Coopers Saturday, should be on the winter ride tomorrow or next day.

Always the 1st snowstorm of the year has a huge increase in business to the body shops. The main thing the H3 is still undamaged. These record low temps, is what I can't stand, temps as low as 3°F local this am, in November? My body could use some of that global warming rhetoric right now.

New Cooper shoes for the beater, excellent!
My beater has new shoes, ABS and 4x4 but all that didn't really help with the ice in Pontiac. Glad to have steel bumpers, full frame and 7000+ lbs around me with all the idiots out there.

Don't anybody hurt themselves bothering to learn that climate and weather are NOT the same thing. Just because the average global temperature IS rising, does not mean there will be no cold weather.

One would have to be a mental midget not to understand that, but then again there are plenty of mental midgets in denial. An example by way of quote from such a mental midget: "Drill baby drill." Another one that perhaps some would recognize?: "The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive." Or like when another mental midget brings a snowball on the floor of the Senate to demonstrate ...... that climate change is a hoax, but actually showed..........it snows in February. Nuff said.

Snowed again this morning.................. this weather sucks!

Oh lets not get into the climate change debate. Otherwise we will be on to abortion after that. It was a balmy 26 in my neck of the woods yesterday morning. No snow though.

You are exactly correct. My comments may have been offensive to midgets.

So you had to wear socks this week?
