They must like me or something. Of course when it's a brisk 47 degrees outside with running cold water.... *brrrrr* Yes, you can't have my dad's '72 Nova that my coats on. :-)

Right now they have studs on, I told them:
"It hasn't snowed, and I doubt it will, you're tearing up the road I have to pay for...."

So I'm putting the good 'ol borbets back on Tuesday I think.

How was people's weekends too? Seems like I've been gone for a few days. :-)

Default I think I'll move to SoCal in a year or two...something about

always having the weather be nice. Appealing. IO can't go outside for more than 2 miutes without having my .... retract to keep warm.

I could certainly deal if it was always sunny and 70* to 90*.

Default d'oh

that is a downside. Plut it is a completely different culture from NY. I would be out of my element. Or I would by a Honda Insight and become a hippie. I need a change of pace anyway...I think starting over somewhere far from here would be the best thing for me.

Default I'd find it hard to live on the west coast

I'm very attached to the northeast. I think NYC, Boston or DC are the places I could live and be happy. From visiting the west coast, I don't think I'd be as comfortable out there. I think Norcal is a little more my speed.

47 is brisk? LOL. Try polishing your exhaust tips in 8 degrees
