    Will is talking about best snow/wind combo of the season, so it seems like we are missing out. That dude is always catching the goods too…what a luckbox. I’d like to snip some of his locks and take it with me whenever I hit the casinos.

    LOL, Scott's trying to soften the blow while the rest of us are jumping up and down and high fiving.

    Yeah, just enough to push this year ahead of 11/12 on the futility list for me.  I’ve already well surpassed 15/16 which was a complete disaster out here. 

    It's been that bad? i give the winter a C here, slighlty below average snow, plenty of cold, I've seen worse. 2012 I was in T-shirt by the end of Feb with little snow.

    I don't follow baseball that closely, but the "shift" is where the players in the field move around to take advantage of tendencies by certain hitters to always put the ball in play in certain spots, correct? Why is that being banned? If the hitters don't like it shouldn't they adjust? The fielding team just has to stand in one place now or something? I don't get this one.

    I thought they were trying to speed up the game, the no shift rule will allow more hits. I don't like getting rid of the shift.

    My kid (almost 11) has a small fortune worth of original Star Wars toys, Matchbox cars and comic books.   I don’t really care, he enjoys them so let it be.  For the most part he’s treated everything gentle except for a few cringe worthy comic book losses.

    If only I saved my baseball cards, my friend/neighbor did and sold them for 5k, a few years later he could have had triple that but he did better than me.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I don't give until April 2nd, my birthday, we all know what happened on April 1st, even then the suns so warm you can only enjoy it for a day.

    I probably read that in real time as I gazed at my burgeoning orange tree in my yard while vomiting my coffee.....

    I think it missed where you are or were before you moved, if this is the one I'm thinking of Dick Albert predicted 15-20 with blizzard condition for most of Mass, Natalie asked him if it could slide out to sea and he said NO. It ended up further south and East and mainly got the cape and there was a sharp cutoff, I don't remember where the cutoff ended up but it was mainly a Cape storm.

    Two steps backward, three steps forward, one step backward?  It's hard to stay in the basement for long, that was a nice little run of powder over the past 8 days.  Now we take a step back but always onward and upward in the mean.

    Deepest mountain snowpack of the season for sure, as one would expect in early March.  What a day out there today, sunshine and packed powder.

    Doesn't look like you take too hard a hit and probably recover it next week.

    I wish I remembered this one as a 3 year old:

    "L.A. TIMES ARCHIVES

    FEB. 10, 1987 12 AM PT
    FROM UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL

    A blustery storm that battered the Northeast and buried Cape Cod under 2 feet of snow and drifts 10 feet high swept farther off the Eastern Seaboard today as the National Guard moved in to aid in the cleanup effort."

    This quote would trigger a young PF or PhineasC

    'I should open a ski resort down here,' said Jeff Grant, 25, owner of Spinnaker Records in Hyannis.

    I remember it, sharp cutoff so I got bupkus, I remember watching it on the news, I think it was one of the Shelby Scott storms.
