I like this *winter* weather. I personally like the 50s in Dec/Jan. Like Dave, I like to visit the snow on my own terms.

I work at OSU and this is the first day back at classes for the students. Now since I have had my MINI I have been able to park in a 1/2 empty parking garage due to it being finals week and then winter break and less students on campus. Now that they are back the garage is packed and I am so worried about getting a door ding . <-- am I mental?


on a side note, like you guys, the weather in c-bus has been great this winter. I would like a little snow so I could go snowboarding once this year. but only once is enough.

HELL no... college kids are animals -- animals that drive rust buckets (for the most part). And OSU students are so sauced, they might knock the entire miirror off and not even notice. I say carry around a portable "STAFF PARKING ONLY" sign made out of vinyl and apply it to your favorite, hopefully remote/sheltered parking space.

I'm 100% with you there! But I need someone to teach me how to 'board. The one and only time I tried to learn at Mad River Mt., the entire slope was crusted with ice, and after an hour my knees were pulverised. I can ski a bit, though, so I bet I could learn if someone showed me the ropes.

You want to learn to snowboard also? (not like I'm a expert or anything) We could do a little mini rally up to mad river.

And yes, I will take you up on the PC training anytime.

I already know how. But the snow here isnt any good, so I dont go. That and none of my friends snowboard. I like the short skis, slead dogs or something. The learning curve is much smaller and I havent almost killed myself on them.

Hey Nick and Heather,

Thanks for getting my order out. I received it today, just minutes before heading out to what turned out to be a 12 hour detail. Was glad to have a full bottle of Clarity (I bought the gallon size) and the big bottle of Epic!

Richard

Snowlerblades! haha, I've got a buddy that's sponsored. It's pretty funny to watch him hit kickers on those.

Sounds like one HELL of a good plan! I'll definitely show you what I know, although Sean also knows his stuff, that's for sure.

Now we just need some snow... (sigh)...
