Gary, I used to live up in Yellowknife and every winter we got involved in the dog sledding. Its a pretty incredible activity. Although i am not a huge fan of the bitter cold, I just cant seem to get enough snow… but… talk to me in January when my back and shoulders are sore from shovelling and I am looking for a massage LOL * * * We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another ---

Sue? I hate you. I’m insanely jealous. I ADORE snow (AND cold! Winter is my absolute, hands-down favorite season. I HATE WARM AND HOT!) ## _sigh_ It’s finally cooling off…can’t wait til we have to turn on the heat 😃 – O p a l C a t [www.opalcat.com](http://www.opalcat.com) ---

It’s not snowing here. In fact, it’s a beautiful, warm, sunny day. I haven’t seen a Halloween as nice as this in quite a while. It’s usually much colder. I like snow, as long as I’m watching those big, fat flakes fall outside my window, while I drink a steaming mug of hot chocolate and read a good book, on Christmas Day. Otherwise, I hate it. ---

My name is Suzette, and I love snow. That’s right. I don’t love shoveling (but since I had back surgery, I NEVER EVER have to do that again!). I love to walk in it, watch it fall, feel it crunch when I walk in it, make snowmen, frolic and otherwise enjoy it. ## Yeah, Sue! I’m totally jealous, but here in upstate NY, I expect we’ll be seeing it within weeks (especially because it’s been warm here lately.) Winter loves to creep up on us…70 one day and 20 the next. I’ve already had bad frost at night, so it’s comin’! Zette (busting out my gloves and snowsuit) A friend is someone who likes you even though you’re as ugly as a hat full of assholes.

PCW: Sorry, hon, but it was the roadrunner’s evil eye that always made those fine Acme products fail. damn bird. Besides, if my catapult went up, we’d **all** be sucking snow. And if **I** can’t win, **nobody** wins! 😉 * * * You say “cheesy” like that’s a **BAD** thing. ---
