Whoa - I envy you that! No snow here - at all.  It's pretty to look at, but shoveling it or having to drive in it is a bitch! Har har, Smitty. L.A., huh? Why don't you explain earthquakes to those of us who don't get that concept? ;D |

Earthquakes: they don't come quite as often as one would expect, but they're still pretty standard here. It is a concept that involves the ground shaking due to tectonic plate movement.

I see. Ground shaking or snow falling. I think I'll take the snow.
Rain, huh, Termination? Are you in Seattle? The land of rain and coffee.

You know, I knew that you were in Canada, just slipped my mind for a moment. Rain & coffee? I thought Canada was the land of beer and hockey?  |

It is a very new concept to me. ;D Where I live neither snow nor rain must be explained - it's just this year that we've got spring here instead of winter. Hey - even mild earthquake we had here not long ago! All kinds of weather and elements, I tell you! |

This NHL lockout is depressin' thank god there isn't a lockout on beer, cause if there were, I'd come to the US a knockin' ;D Though I personally am not the biggest hockey fan, the lockout sure has affected things here in Detroit. Afterall, this is "Hockeytown". And who here in Detroit doesn't like to see the Red Wings play? Term, if you ever decide to cross the bridge, or tunnel, stop by and we'll have a cold one. ;D |
