Blizzard envy

You probably know by now that cold, white death is raining down upon the northeast where a winter blizzard -- it's funny how those things always seem to happen in the winter -- is hitting.

Admit it, Minnesota, we're all feeling a little jealous over not having the excitement...

I admit to being jealous about the snow. I want a huge snow every other week for the rest of winter. I love it.

Nice Video!

I'm with David. Give me a good snow fall every 7-10 days.

Damnit, on what can we hang our cultural superiority as Minnesotans if not on our ability to endure worse winters than the rest of the country?

More seriously: I have snowshoes. They need use. I'm with David and BJ-- bring on the snow.

I don't only want a huge snowfall, but a snow day to go along with it. A straight up governor calling off school and closing all state offices snow day. A three feet of snow in 24 hours type snowfall would be great, and Sunday night would be excellent timing since I have a Monday morning meeting. Can someone do that for me?

more snow, less rain. If this keeps up I'm going to have to move to Saskatoon.

Since when do winter storms have names? Orko? Puhleeze.
