So today is a snow day at my work, but I didn't check my email before leaving the house. So now I'm here at work. :(

    the real question is...why are you still at work?

    I don't have a life. Work is actually kind of exciting.

    Yea, London is right in the snowbelt of Ontario.

    Whenever there is a storm or snowstorm and I pull up the radar, I can see a belt going right through London and pretty much avoiding everywhere else.

    Sweet! I don't mind the cold or snow at all, as long as it's not raining and windy.

    Stumbled upon this piece about snow earlier:
    http://www.guardian.co.uk/austria/article/0,,1964968,00.html

    Austria's hills aren't alive with sound of skiing

    For the Austrian village of Hochfilzen it was a disaster. As it prepared to welcome the world's best cross-country skiers and shooters for a biathlon event this weekend there was a problem: no snow.

    With climate experts confirming that the Alps are in the grip of the warmest temperatures for 1,300 years villagers borrowed some snow from a nearby mountain, trucking in snow from Grossglockner, Austria's highest peak, 20 miles away.

    I was out of breath when I got here walking through all that unplowed snow. I said screw it and stayed at work.

    probably a good choice.

    when i left work last night the roads were horrible. i counted 8 cars in the median of the highway between work and home. then when i got home i realized the plow had gone by and left a nice pile of snow at the end of my driveway, and i didn't get a shovel yet. i was planning on getting one this weekend. i ended up using my oldest sons snowboard to push enough of the snow away so i could pull the car in.

    i really hate snow.

    Yeah I guess eh...we do get our fair share but nothing really yet..
    Yeah the snowbelt at times gets crazy snow..Didn't it snow like 4 feet in Buffalo in October or something? WOW

    Apparently I'm not good at eye-balling, it's more like 2 ft or 2 1/2 ft here. I've heard different stories.

    Buffalo get's hit just as bad as London, it's in the same belt I think.

    Haha, I hate that the plows dump snow at the end of drive-ways. I used to live on a main street and every 45 mins I'd have to go out and shovel that crap.

    My work never closes. They just tell you to use your best judgment as to whether you can make it to work safely.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Bitte sehr & danke schön! Aber ich wunsch viel Schnee fur alle Bergen, nicht nur dieses. No idea if this German is correct at all, but it's an attempt. I just wish when I go boarding the snow will be good and this is a 1 time thing.

    I don't know, but I understood what you meant.

    I've never been snowboarding and my cousin is a level 3 instructor instructor instructor or some crazy thing.

    Haha, something like Mayor Mayor Mayor in Catch 22? I've been boading just once, but it's addictive! I also have 2 friends who are instructors, no fun watching the video's we shot since my jumps are good when i get air time at all, yet they seem weightless..

    How come u speak German?
