...Now back to m/D complaining about golfing on a December morning in FL.... :bustingup

No ball chasing for this ol'fool today; the only idiots out there are the vacationers/renters, whom feel they must play. They kept the track closed until ~10:00 ish, and ran sprinklers to dissolve the frost: carts and feet kill frosted grass.

Haven't played since Xmas day, and I am chasing it tomorrow with my local club geezers.

You could stop by our Mtn Joint, K/B, but it's in the mtns of NC, not WVA. And, there is no water or heat, but you could keep an eye on the resident mices for me. ;)

I was only sort of complaining: it's weird to look out at sunny skies and wilted palms and tropicals, while it's damn cold for us that have acclimated from Mtn temps to SW FL climes. Hey, it's free to beef, isn't it?! :D

76 days till clock change!

L, You aren't the only one wondering where the plows are hiding:

Christmas Blizzard of 2010: City much too slow to plow, critics say

I would help you shovel, if I was there. ;)

I'm with you on Daylight Savings Time.

I hate new jersey. North Carolina did a better job clearing the roads. I sat on Morris Ave for two frigging hours trying to get a mile because the two lanes became one, and people from Jersey can't play nice.

I have never had so much road rage in my life. I can't wait to be back in Maine where they can actually clear snow for a couple weeks before battling it again to get back to school

all I can say is I would rather be in SW FL at the mo . it has been below freezing here for 8 or 9 weeks .
we got 18 inches of snow 6weeks ago and the temp dropped to - 10 C daytime and - 15 C and lower at night . the heating was running constant . a thaw began yesterday but not yet enough to melt all the snow . enough to give the heating a rest as the house does hold heat in the stonework . the X5 has been very cosy in it`s new garage throughout the weather . the old 7 series has been magnificent on it`s winter tyres . no frozen doors or windows .
some of our motorways closed during the worst weather leaving thousands stranded for more than 24 hours . the transport minister was forced to resign for leaving folks to freeze in their vehicles .

a couple of vids one of them shows idiots baling before a low speed impact .
