Drop shipment for Jester!

[dalesys]

18 inches of the greatest snow on earth. From my yard to his bar.

Frog knows what the ski resorts got.

We also had the power out for 6 hours...

[Jester]

Good luck getting it here.

Tomorrow's forecast calls for 78F. Which is what we call "chilly."

But tomorrow, while it is 78 and partly cloudy, I'll be on a lovely catamaran for many hours, being served food and beer by others (role reversal of my typical workday), while I watch sleek boats with engines more powerful than some Third World countries racing towards and around the catamaran at ridiculous speeds.

I LOVE powerboat race week! Doubt I'll even think of Dale's idle snow threat as I lounge on the boat's deck sipping mimosas and enjoying the view of girls in bikinis.

Yes, I know. Enjoy hating me. I can handle it.

EDITED TO ADD:

This is what the races look like at the start. See the one catamaran in the middle of all those boats? Yeah....that's where I'll be. Because we're the start line.

And here's a view from the air as the boats whip around that catamaran at high speeds. Yeah, that boat in the middle? Again, where I'll be. Because we're Turn 3.

(Amusingly, I think that the first photo was taken last year, and I'm pretty sure if you look at the magnified photo, you can see me near the back in a white t-shirt taking pictures with my phone.)

Try dumping it down here...forecast tomorrow is in the high 20s in Celsius.

And my Scottsdale buddy has been whinging all week, so I just sent him the current temps --- Me, 57F, Him, 39F. Happens very rarely.

Yes, I know. Enjoy hating me. I can handle it.

No hate here. I COULD be living there, but choose not to.

That storm dropped almost 24" at my place. I missed a day of work because it was coming down faster than I could shovel it.

[lordlundar]

Wow, kind of grateful I got away with only a foot.

And as become an annual tradition:

*ahem*

GET BENT JESTER!

Was that too much? I never know...

Just because you live in another hemisphere, we will get to you later BUT we will get to you.

Oh by the way how was Rocky Horror????

didn't get a chance to see it. Was busy at school for a visit that day, then got home and collapsed on the bed from exhaustion.

Oh and you can try and get me, but by the time you do, you'll be basically heaping down a big shower of niiiice coool water.....

Also, slush balls and snow balls work wonders when it's very warm down here.

It's cold enough at high altitude... and it won't have time to melt as it is "drop-shipped" (shovelled out the back of the C-130)

Trust me, in 40C heat, just about everything melts quickly....also, it'll actually be more or less beneficial as a means to cool off.

No snow here in Pennsylvania either. Looking outside, it's about 65F out and sunny. Perfect MG weather...if the car wasn't off the road with ignition issues

Shovelling takes too long. Press it into 4 foot cubes (really tamp down, and partially thaw and then refreeze, the first 6 inches, to make a built-in pallet), and use the rollers in the floor to unload them rapidly. Also, forget the C-130 - if you're going to that much trouble, get a C-5.

I feel the same and I don't even have any snow...

Pass the rum, Jester?

Remember I said we will get to you later say like in 6 months. THEN we will air drop as much snow/ice/whatever I can find as possible in your vacinity.
