...to Boston.

10th March and 78 degrees. I'm leaving work early to go work on a tan /images/graemlins/grin.gif

You're in the Bay area, is that correct?

That is indeed correct.

You stink. I was out with the snowblower at 5:00 a.m. yesterday. Standing temp was -2F. Wind chill was -27F. I now have an "inny."

But were you lucky enough to have the wind blow it all back in the damn driveway while you were at work so you do it all over again when you got home?

There is no going back to a normal life after we have been exposed to this technology.

Do what I did. Go to Home Depot. Get 50' of dryer hose. Attach it to the outlet on your house where the dryer exhaust comes out. Cap the en and run it down the driveway. Poke a bunch of small holes in the hose and let your dryer run on hot. Move the hose every few minutes. Your driveway will be clear in one dryer cycle.

This morning I slipped on the ice while digging out my car.

But I live in Cambridge, not Boston /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

When I lived in the Bay Area I always missed the East Coast when Autumn rolled around.

So I would drive up to Sonoma.

If it wasn't for the fact that I now live in the Bay Area (where its 78 degrees today BTW) this would qualify as possibly the most useful advice I've ever read on 2+2.

More snow friday night I heard. Just giving everybody a heads up.

Somehow I love shoveling, the worst part about winter here is definitely the road salt. I have to take the highway to work and my truck just gets covered in it. And whenever I get around to washing it, it snows again within a few days.

In Colorado, they are mostly using magnesium chloride. It does a wonderful job of melting the snow and ice, but your car will only get about 10 miles per gallon --
of windshield washer fluid. It leaves a lovely dirty brown film on every square inch of your car.
