Whats with closing school due to some snow? Have to bike 2km to school in about 20cm of snow and ice everyday :(. I dont think schools here ever close because of snow and only maybe if it would be -35C.

I'll tell you what's with that.
People see snow.
Kids don't want to go to school.
Parents don't want to go to work.

How come you get loads of snow in the US? In Britain we just get a few days of snow then really cold rain/hailstone  :-\.

I haven't been able to get any vomit this release. Not any I can pick up, at any rate.
Swans, too. Swans are complete bastards.

Hehe, 8 inches of snow last night, classes canceled today :)

I took first year up north though, 5 months of > 1 foot constant snow, didn't close for a single day. Seems to just depend on how prepared for it people are.

Hello from North Dakota. We export it.

What the hell

I thought I was the only person on the internet in North Dakota.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.

The rain appears to be lasting longer than usual this season.
So I guess that's something.
Still no thunderheads.
I miss those things.

My house always ends up being the last one with snow in the neighborhood.

I love it.
