You took the words right out of my mouth - I live in the Chicago burbs and yes it does snow here and we go through this every year - and what worries me is there are more distractions in cars these days so it's only going to get worse.

Mike, that's exactly what my friend who lives in Granite Falls told me when I visited him during my two weeks at Fort Lewis. He said they are by far the worst drivers in the rain and he's from the Midwest.

Slow day here it seems. Trying to find some motivation to start some projects around here. I need to redo a room but have to remove border and a palm tree decal from the wall first. I hate removing wallpaper. Then I have to repair the walls from nails and prime them. Before Hunter was born, we made this his nursery room and painted Flintstone characters all over the room. Now I have painted and painted and those darn stone age people bleed through over time. Gonna try some Kilz and primer this time. Sounds goofy but they really looked cool. Too nasty to go out.

I'm about 15 miles South of JBLM and drivers around here are nuts. I hate having to go anywhere near the Tacoma/Lakewood area. The drivers around there are just plain crazy!

Oh geeze. 2005 Grand Prix GTP with the Comp-G package for sale in Nashville. Why couldn't have this (or the 04 Intimidator) been for sale 5 months ago? Wow...

Lol I know I'm not offended Rick. Shoot, I can dish it out as well for that matter.

I could go for some beers. Preferably Guinness (developed a taste for that lately) but I'd still rather have my Maker's Mark

Well, I got the trunk cleaned out so far. Main things I need to get out of the cabin are my CDs, my Gortex, small medic bag, and my golf clubs (that I haven't had a chance to use in months). I'm gonna thaw out before I do that part though because it's still only 26 degrees outside.
